This song is one of my favorite “internet digs”(?) of all time. A couple years ago I found this song on Lovefingers.  Track mislabling led me to a dead end when I tried to find more info, but alas, now there is a whole Wikipedia article on The Units – “a defunct, early Electronic music/punk rock/New Wave/Synthpunk band founded in San Francisco in 1978.” There is something profoundly awesome in the raw synths.

On discovery, I sent it over to DJ Grandtheft, who breathed some current dancefloor life into it.

The title and the sound resonate.

The Units – High Pressure Days (1979)
