25 Hours A Day

Imagine if you had a machine that can reproduce any track you like of any genre into a proper text book indie rock band hit!

I'm talking about something that can make a Pantha Du Prince track to sound like a Franz Ferdinand or a Prince track to sound like The Teenagers - or even better if you feed it an original indie rock track it will make it even more original than the original!

Well… there is no need to imagine at all because it exists, but unfortunately it's not a machine & no, you can't purchase it, because it is actually a person!

Frenchie 25 Hours A Day may have tagged his style as Electro on MySpace, but every drum kick, snare, cowbell konk & guitar chord swear it's indie rock perfection (with synth, occasionally) – he's the kind of guy that would remix your track and instead of bleeping it he would come up with something that could be mistaken for being the original version more than the original track itself!

Re-reading what I just typed sounded like a slightly understandable nonsense, but you wouldn't get it unless you actually listen to his remixes… for instance I hated Phoenix's 'Long Distance Call' ever since it came out & after I heard 15 Hours A Day's version I fell I love with it & while listening to it on my iPod on shuffle mode I actually thought I was listening to a rad track by some new indie band!

He's literally what a one-man-band stands for & it amazes me that none of the hype dominating (popular) Blogs have paid attention to him yet!

I've wanted to blog him since December 07 but he's one hell of a toughie to get in touch with, I actually had Flairs contact him to let him contact me back + there is really not much info about him on World Wide Web!

He's officially one of my favorite BANDS, yes he is!

Obviously someone who can make an original out of an original will have an original of his own & it's lovely & original!

Also, in case you haven't heard his remix of Flairs' Better Than Prince that sounds like a sequel to The Teenagers' Starlett Johansson, you can hear it here in HQ – I will try to get permission to post it soon.

Show immediate love & appreciation at MySpace!
