I have been on the fence for the past few days when it comes to Midnight Juggernauts’ first single, “This New Techonology”, for their second LP. On one listen the song sounds bland and recycled.

Of course, once Cut Copy got their hands on it, throwing in their trademark break beats and hipster club atmosphere, “Dystopia” now takes you through a completely new and different experience.
