From Dexter Gilmore's computer-warped vision of funk and pop future in Coldiloqs came the expanded universe of his Sexy Dex and The Fresh.*The band's world is made up of atomic dogs and purple ones, computer games and love symbols, but in that lovingly referential cosmos is*an ambitious assault on the senses. Plus 1 Edition (Community Records)is the band's thrilling, rocket-fueled tour of what's to come.*Stream it below.

The eight tracks from the band's anticipated effort follow the addictive singles "Speed Racer" and "My Bae-B," which open the album with joyous, confident abandon,*giving way to basement disco ("Supremachine," "Take Me Love Me")*and a frenzied, dizzying race through bubbling bass and razor wire synths ("Le Sigh"), all smashing headfirst into the slow-motion ballad "Wound."

Gilmore's harmonies with vocalist*Gabrielle Washington find sweet spots in unlikely places.*Versatile keyboardist Ben Buchbinder's playful synth stabs and far-out riffs send "Open Me Up" into an unpredictable, starry abyss that orbits to a panoramic "BCNU L8R."?
