“Girl Talk compatriot Hearts of Darknesses—the nom de squelch of New York-based, one-man laptop jock Frank Musarra—is like the mirror opposite of his sometime collaborator. In concert, Musarra, who claims his biggest influence to be ‘Nirvanautechre’, is a punk-rock version of Girl Talk’s proscenium-stage radio-rock: He screams, he makes his music stutter, and he’s not afraid of breaking the fourth wall. Lately, he’s even had a saxophone-toting live band playing with him, making his transition from misanthropic ‘intelligent dance music’ artist to just ‘dance musician’ all the more gratifying.” -- Village Voice

“These kids Hours of Worship infiltrate the catacombs of a secret society of name unknown and unpronounceable even if you found it out and if you did then they’d have to kill you, at the bottom of the primeval gutter they stumble upon masqueraded figures dancing to some vicious hybrid of filtered euro-techno clamours and spaced out bleeping, this inspires them to make some musics which when unleashed upon the world create fiery backlash from Christians frothing about how mixing Goblin and Green Velvet is sinful, scenes of gnarly Blade-style disco bloodshed ensue and everyone is purified.” -- 20 Jazz Funk Greats

“Analog, minimal synth project. Nico uses an old-school approach to deconsruct music in order to pave way for a new sound. Post-modern decadence meets retro-futurism.”
