Sounds Like
"DZUSA remind us of that catchy-as-shit song by Underworld from Trainspotting; DZUSA's techno-inflected pop captures the same sunny, sweaty ambience."
-Time Out New York
"The band name has a sort of lovable B movie feel to it. And so does the music...Fun loving and danceable indie electronica pop."
-Mystery & Misery
"Top quality tunes... There's certainly an odd fusion of styles here. Try to conjure a sound that might be described as 'post-punk breaks' - like LCD Soundsystem getting dirty with an old sampler, more scattered than their usual 4-4 disco."
-FatPlanet
"DZUSA's "The Summer Jam" features just about everything you'd like to hear in a song, only mashed together and fed through your speakers at an unbelievably hyper pace. Basically it's 3 minutes of manic, joy-inducing fun."
-Delusions of Adequacy
"Here at ScissorKick, we've stumbled into this niche where electronic and organic elements coexist nicely within the same space. Sometimes however, that space can be more like a Lower East Side studio occupied by 25 partially shaved, semi-retarded orangutans in adult diapers dancing to Sheena Easton. That's just the image I get when I listened to these 4 tracks from DraculaZombieUSA who appear to be more human beings (barely) than retarded monkeys, but no less primordially moved by the electronic beats and guitar spasms. They seem not to take themselves too seriously, so hopefully I can do my daily good turn by posting these links which the band describes as "aphex twin + lightning bolt + lcd soundsystem." I'd like to think of them instead as the mutant baby of said threesome, which gives them some time to mature and refine and become a truly devastating 3-headed electro-rock hydra.
-ScissorKick
"DZUSA will either be big in the next year or on the buzz. Don't tell me I didn't warn you."
-PolloxNiner
"Cheerleader music has been on the rise as of late, and I for one wholeheartedly welcome it. Whether it’s used more as a prop (i.e. Sufjan Stevens’ entire band wearing matching “Illinois” sweaters and shouting cheers to introduce their songs) or as an entire ethos (i.e. The Go! Team), cheerleading in music gives everyone in the crowd the team spirit needed to sustain the band’s energy and help the listener feel like part of the group.
"Of course, I should clarify that if Sufjan is the sweet, sensitive cheerleader who also takes AP math classes and volunteers at the homeless shelter, and if the Go! Team is the squad that goes to nationals almost every year (and even won once!), then the members of DraculaZombieUSA are the rebellious biker cheerleaders, snorting lines of coke under the bleachers after the game and having unprotected sex at will with unsuspecting members of the chess team.
"But perhaps that’s not an entirely fair assessment. I mean, if DraculaZombieUSA were my daughter, heck, I’d be proud of her for seamlessly melding the playful electronics of Aphex Twin with the searing guitarscapes of Lightning Bolt, the instant danceability of !!! and the occasional lyrical poignancy of Modest Mouse.
"True, I might scold her for getting a little bawdy on “Parallel Lives Perpendicular High Fives” (“I can’t help but look at asses”) or for going perhaps a bit too hard on the coke on “I Need I Need Money Money Money,” but I would still praise her for the undeniably cool, intricate beats that start out “The Summer Jam” and “I Like the Snow,” and for almost sounding accessible enough for “The O.C.” on “Thomas Window Paine.” Almost. You can still do a little better, DraculaZombieUSA. But don’t worry, I still love you very very much. Now let’s go out for some shakes!
"Hmmm...now that I think about it, this review sounds an awful lot like it was written by my dad. Gooooooooooo team!"
-Salt Shaker Magazine
"Dracula Zombie USA: Three women in wifebeaters and black miniskirts wearing dead-president masks, accompanied by a male cohort clad in a Dracula cape and George Bush mask. They played a dance-beat-fueled riot-grrrl mashup we'll call punko — or maybe discunk?" - MTV.com (on our CMJ show)

Energy Dancefloor - A cura di Regione Puglia in collaborazione con Codice. Idee per la cultura Piazza Sant’Oronzo– Palco alimentato con energia fotovoltaica
Il collettivo di giovani artisti italiani si nutre dell’alchimia che le più attuali tecnologie dell’audio e del video permettono per la progettazione e la realizzazione di performance live. Produzione Elettronica, improvvisazioni Jazz e proiezioni su grandi schermi sono gli elementi che si mescolano per confondere gli spazi e trasformare la piazza in Club e DanceFloor. Jazz, Tekno, Deep, Minimal, Drum ‘N Bass e Live Visual vengono utilizzate senza soluzione di continuità e gerarchie per raccontare una storia ad ogni esibizione.
Per il Festival di Lecce 2009 il racconto è quello della consapevolezza dell’importanza dell’energia, a cominciare dalla propria. Ognuno sarà produttore e consumatore delle energie che animerannno la serata: noi le misureremo e le useremo come motori del suono e della luce. Tra performance creativa e installazione tecnologica, un evento dedicato a chi desidera un mondo alimentato da energia pulita.
Maestro dell’Aria: Ivan Bert Tromba + Live Elettronica Maestri degli Elettroni: Lorenzo Chiabotti ‘Jena Saw’; Luca Viccinelli ‘Mr BigAss’; Alberto Andreis ‘UnknownDj’
Maestro della Luce: Allume
Ospite: Francesco Bearzatti Sax + Live Elettronica Progettazione simulazione pedana sensibile : PGLtd Evento in collaborazione con Stefano Studio Danze, Lecce
