Another day, another Bleed Electric session and another brand new song.  “Boost Your 1′s” came together quickly and was written, recorded, produced, mixed and mastered in one studio session.  It is worth noting that in this song everything used sound wise is from the ZX Spectrum and / or Commodore 64 and no new sounds were added to it at all.   This in itself transported us back to our youth and playing video games on said systems and the content about 1Up was born, 1UPs was the term used for an extra life in these games.

The lyrical content then took it all a step further and is discussing how Bleed Electric as a band are one up and always one step ahead of their competition from a sound perspective and telling the haters out there that they really don;t care and you just don’t get Bleed Electric’s music and arent on the same level!  The song also has lots of video game references and is probably our second most Hip-Hop oriented track to date.  Really digging on this guys so looking forward to finding out what you guys think.
