Modular People is a record label based in Sydney, Australia. One of their most popular acts right now is The Presets , a Sydney-based electronic dance duo, consisting of Julian Hamilton and Kim Moyes. In 2005, they released their debut album, Beams, to a positive critical response. Their second album, Apocalypso, released in April 2008, was a commercial and critical success, winning the ARIA Awards for "Best Dance Release" and "Album of the Year" that year.

Modular Recordings and Universal Music Australia have launched an innovative widget to coincide with the release of ‘Talk Like That’, the 3rd single by The Presets from the album Apocalypso.

The link below, should take you to it: http://www.clearspring.com/widgets/48e30dc74ff0a340?p=48eb3fbc289dd4ce

The widget invites people to leave messages for the band and one another in real time. The concept is the first of its kind. It’s almost like a huge instant messenger, where the messages appear simultaneously on every site the widget is placed. It also relates back to the website http://www.talklikethat.com , where clues are placed for participants to win prizes.

I like the song Yippiyo-Ay and the subtle aussie lyrics.

Take you from the 80’s - Bimbos rock the latex - Dingos catch the babies - Oooh stop……..

Write a message , have a listen , and enjoy.
