Mochipet’s latest album Master P on Atari reminds me of Transformers. The skillful electronic mix of miscellaneous sounds hit at just the right times and could be part of the soundtrack for those metallic, alien protectors of the world. The album cover even sports a creature somewhat transformer-like, however, this machine has a badass tape recorder and Atari joystick at its center.
The first thing I noticed while listening was that I didn’t mind the fact that there were no real vocals. I’m all about the words, but I think Master P on Atari is a full album despite its lack of lyrics. The album is intricately layered and emotive the same way a voice can lead a listener to feel a certain way.
That certain way in this case is the feeling that I’m in the middle of an action movie breakneck car chase. Police sirens went off (going the opposite direction, I might add) as I was listening to Master P on Atari in my car and I swear I almost sped up and veered off the main drag to lose them. I may be more easily influenced than most, but I was definitely adrenaline-laced due to this album. Which I loved. A fun, inventive album, Master P on Atari had me invested. And driving like a maniac.

Pop Icon Michael Jackson passed away recently. It makes me think of
how weird this music business really is. It is a very strange place indeed.
Many have been asking for this remix. So I put it up here as a
free download. Enjoy. xoxo mochi

It’s a good day to be bumping some hard as nails Mochipet tracks. Not only is the programming exquisite in them, but Mochipet definitely keeps it bangin’ and would make a dance floor get up to these tracks.
So this post is about the relatively recent Mochipet record Master P On Atari (Released: 04/07/2009). The album is a structured collision of all kinds of styles of music (lots of electronic influence) that somehow works and you can’t help but nod your head to it. If you’re feeling The Glitch Mob or Lazer Sword, there’s no reason you shouldn’t enjoy this. Don’t believe us? Check out these two tracks from the release. Keep up the good work Mochi!

Master P on Atari is the latest release from Taiwanese electronica junkie Mochipet. Fresh off of a leap in notoriety gained through being featured on 2kSports’ NBA2k9 game, Mochipet (David Wang) hits us with a fresh album of banging beats and breaks. Far from a tribute to the former No Limit CEO, the album is a trip through the infinite electronic database of potential videogame thuds, echoes, clatters and other thumping sound effects combined in various permutations.

Sadly no time for a full on remix post, but I did want to share a new Mochipet track from his most recent album. Aptly titled “Marshall Bass Stacks” it sounds like what would happen if someone tried their damnest to to, well… blow out a stack of them (I think is partially the point. shhh!)
