For those of you who think you're listening to techno while you snuggle up with the latest edition of Tiesto's In Search of Sunrise series, Cicada Rhythm urges you to bust out of the bedroom and dance your pants off to some banging acid techno.

Imagine your house shaking 150 times in one minute, and you get the picture.
