premiere: VEGA :: "all too vivid"

VEGA is the brand new project from Alan Palomo , ex-Ghosthustler frontman, and the kid mostly responsible for that group's small but impressive body of twinkling '80s Euro synth-pop jams. He's off to a swimming start on this first VEGA joint, which will be released in 12" format on new Austin/NYC label Vogue College Records . For me, Palomo's work sits head and shoulders above most of the run-of-the-mill "blog house" (WTF is bl0g house? ) that's cluttering up the electro-blogosphere, thanks in large part to his self-assured, unstoppable signature vocal delivery, his legit retro-futuristic production steez, and most importantly, an uncanny and consistently tight pop songwriting sensibility. Alan hooked us (and our homies at Discodust ) up with this, the cinematic and unabashedly romantic first single:

Look for future VEGA contributions on upcoming projects from Todd Edwards , as well as the upcoming Miami Horror EP.
