Mickey Moonlight (full title Mickey Moonlight & The Time Axis Manipulation Corporation) are Ed Banger’s new signing. That’s right, this cosmic exotica touting fella will be labelmates with all that dirty glitchy french stuff everyone’s kind of over now. So, it seems that Ed Banger are taking a new direction (at least briefly), a super space-disco direction, and the few intercepted transmissions are mighty promising.
Mickey Moonlight is Midnight Mike’s new project, and there’s some input from Zongamin (Susuma Mukai) too. Midnight Mike produced a load of Zongamin stuff in the past, and has recently been the tour DJ for Soulwax/2 Many DJs.
“Interplanetary Music” is a Sun Ra cover, the opening track from 1956 album We Travel The Spaceways. It rolls in vintage disco and comes out all retro cosmic, with layered natural vocals and the rhythmic plink plonk and wah-wah of exotica percussion.

“Music for Responsible Reprogenetics Public Service Broadcast” was composed as a short 1-minute ’sound postcard’ for Italian art magazine Uovo. It possesses an echoing lull, lowdown and tired soothing vocals.

As yet, this is all we have. The album is coming out in the near future, maybe in the autumn time. Skull Juice appear to have heard it recently though, so eyes peeled for more info from outer space.
