Description

Tasty offbeat debut from bedroom dwelling electro-funk fanatics Hot Chip. It’s a melting pot of ideas and sounds that tastes a bit weird at first, then you’ll get hooked. Think the style of Prince, the beats of the Beastie Boys, the attitude of Clouddead and as funky as a pair of Andre 3000’s y fronts. London 5-piece Hot Chip’s debut album, re-pressed on grey vinyl! There’s a quite lovable oddball quality to this album, hints of Prince, the Beastie Boys, Beck…. a souled-up folk vision of chilled out pop music with a twist. 2005. A loungey, electropop sheen covers much of the music, but more than anything, Hot Chip displays an omnivorous approach to the entirety of alt, ‘60s pop and electronic music history. Their songs are infectious, silly and often weirdly beautiful. Wwith singer-songwriters Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard at the core, Hot Chip’s mixture of textured, smart, lo-fi groove with actual humor is incredibly rare, and great.
