It seems like more and more cool music is coming out of members of Eva Geeks these days. First Rachel Macwhirter, then Dr. Shoggoth, and now Michael Mancuso (aka Esselfortium), who has released an entire Evangelion-inspired concept album called Seventeen More Times.

Seventeen More Times, an Evangelion-inspired concept album
Wednesday, May 25th, 2011“Neon Genesis” by DJ S3RL
Thursday, May 5th, 2011If you like Happy Hardcore/Hardcore, or what some may refer to lovingly as “candy raver music”, you should check out DJ S3RL. He’s a musical artist from Brisbane Australia, who not only makes his own tracks, but also samples from things in popular culture, including anime.
