Happy Hands & Happy Feet EP

March 31st, 2009

Here’s a little something you should know about. It’s underground sensation Dada Life and their just-released “Happy Hands & Happy Feet” EP. The boys are dropping this bomb in advance of their debut artist album Just Do The Dada (set for release later this spring / summer) and decided to offer you lovely people a download of the title track free of coinage.

The brainchild of Stockholm-based Olle Corneer and Stefan Engblom, Dada Life doesn’t care about genres. They don’t care about smartness. They don’t care about the things you care about. Dada Life just wants to make you jump up and down. Then make you crash into a wall with a smile on your face. That’s exactly what’s gonna happen upon listening to the“Happy Hands & Happy Feet” EP. The original’s got a totally unique with a dirty 4/4 beat, bleepy effects and some truly warped vocals. Just download the tracks and see for yourself. On the remix front Dada Life secured the talents of Malente, Alex Gopher, Moonbotica and Phatzoo for some twisted alternate versions of the track.

Inspired by John Cage, Early Acid House, Trance, 60s Psychedelia and Little Richard, among other things, Dada Life has emerged with a unique sound that’s modeled from a broad canvas of musical stimulation. When performing as a live act Dada Life is one box of bananas, a couple of bottles of Champagne and a lot of sweat and broken equipment. On the other hand, Dada Life DJ-gigs tend to go the same way with an MPC and some controllers that enable the boys to play around with samples and loops even when they DJ. They also constantly produce their own remixes/edits of good tunes in order to have something unique to play during the sets. North American audiences will experience this firsthand when Dada Life takes to the States for a full tour later in 2009!

“Happy Hands & Happy Feet” is out now on The Hours. Be on the lookout for Dada Life’s debut artist CD Just Do The Dada this spring/early summer.
