Your New Favourite Tyrant

Hungry dance floors and sweat soaked white boys wait no more. San Serac is here to salvage what’s left of your white boy best. Every so often in Whiteboydancefloor land, music comes to us that encapsulates the very origins of this blog; “The awkward white boy dancer in all of us”. My low brow Western Sydney mind leads me to believe that it is pronounced San-Serack but when you look at how stylish this guy is, I could be foolish in my assumption and in actual fact it may be something more exotic like Descartes.

Channeling the legacy of the whiteboydancefloor uber-gods Bowie & Prince as well as essentially a whole decade of sexy music, San Serac is every bit the entire disco-laced package. Where San Serac really sets himself apart from every other mother and her catchy songs is that San Serac employs some of the most innovative and intelligent lyrics I've heard from an artist of this genre. I love that San Serac doesn't just dumb it down so your masses can sing along, he caters to the sophisticated disco kid. I dont pretend to understand it all but I certainly do like it!

Chris mentioned in a previous post, San Serac is as under-appreciated in the blogosphere as they come, not everyone is sitting so blindly to his splendours. San Serac is attacking the US supporting none other than the mercurial Junior Boys. Yet another example of your run of the mill US line ups that would have Aussies counting down the days and foaming at the mouth for.

Professional is a triumph as it sea changes from pure 80’s indulgence toward some stomping electro elation, in my opinion rarely missing a beat or at the least a chance to make the beat. San Serac typifies what I’d class as the “swish” factor leading to the the obvious conclusion that the title of San Serac’s album Professional is as accurate as they come.

I've posted two tracks for you today but I encourage you to get your hands on San Serac's Professional as there are many more wonderful parts to his music.
