Digits have to be one of the busiest musicans going right now. Not only does Alt Altman churn out a lot of music, but it’s all at the same level of quality. His new project is a serialized story-album where he has written a story, and has a song for each chapter. Read about the project here.
He is releasing each chapter/song on a different music blog. He released the prologue (“Prologue: In the City of the Dead”) on 20jazzfunkgreats and today he released “Get Angry” at Dummy Mag.
Ice-cool synth pop that will chill your every bone is still the heart of Digits, and it’s exactly what I needed right now.
[mp3]: Digits – Get Angry
Chapter One: Get Angry
…Before things got really bad…
J wakes up in bed to the sounds of the daily broadcast. The disturbing trend of pro-violence propaganda has reached new heights, government spokespeople are now openly encouraging hatred of others:
YOU SHOULD BE ANGRY
THIS IS NOT YOUR FAULT
YOU ARE NOT TO BLAME
IT’S EVERYBODY ELSE
GET ANGRY
Next broadcast: STREET VIOLENCE is on the rise
J sits down to write: “The government needs people to remain in their homes/Enraged gangs in the streets serve their purposes well.†But J knows publishing the article would accomplish nothing. And he is afraid of becoming a target. And he has a comfortable life.
Maybe it will all just go away.
