It might seem like some sort of a mystery as to how their their self-titled debut found itself over the Atlantic Ocean and up to Berlin and the home of Morr Music, but one listen to the crisply-produced album of electronic pop will clear any of those thoughts away in this day and age of digital files and trans-continental album releases. Arriving somewhere between the newer work of Styrofoam on Morr and The Postal Service, Electric President mainly dabbles in melancholy-tinged tracks with a couple bursts distributed through the album for good measure.
The opener of "Good Morning Hypocrite" is one of the better pieces on the entire release, bobbing and weaving through several different styles and sections. It opens with some crisp drums odd found-sound percussion and acoustic guitars along with the breathy vocals of Cooper and alternates with mid-tempo sections of "ba-ba" choruses.
At the end of the track, it double-times with a wooden-sounding kick drum and a dollop of hazy synth, giving it a nice gallop of energy and fitting close.

In journalists loved to compare them to Postal Service or even Flaming Lips but Electric President's new, less electronic based music is far removed from the sugary indietronic pop sound that got them well deserved attention and even major placements on television shows such as "The O.
Their latest album and first on Fake Four Inc. Although it may be Ben Cooper's most intimate and personal work for Electric President it is also some of the most developed and detailed song writing of his career to date. Ben's characteristic nasal vocals have matured into a smoother sound complemented by waves of harmonies, quiet acoustic guitars and loud distorted electric ones built upon layers intricately produced percussive work whether it be in the form of big sounding drum machines, glitchy organic found sounds or straight up live kit recordings.
