Haoduken!

Today sees the release of new albums from two Nettwerk recording artists: BT and Hadouken!.

Internationally renowned artist, visionary producer, film composer and technologist BT is back with his 6th studio album These Hopeful Machines. USA Today gave the album 3.5 out of 4 stars in today's paper, saying, "It's not often that a double-disc, two-hour album holds your attention consistently. But post-techno wizard BT's lush, electro-organic soundscapes are so textured, nuanced and melodically inviting that even techno-phobes will be seduced by his forward thinking musicality."

Britain's most dynamic young band Hadouken!unleash their demented blend of alternative electronic rock with their N. American debut album For The Masses. The band brings their live show over here for the first time ever, with dates confirmed in New York City on February 8 at the Mercury Lounge, Toronto on February 9 at El Mocambo and Los Angeles on February 11 at the Viper Room (free!).
