OVERVIEW:
HOT CHIP’s Joe Goddard releases his solo album Harvest Festival on Greco-Roman, the label that he started with 2 other friends. A largely instrumental, electronic album, it winds from woozy ambience to the polyrhythms of London’s clubland and back again, and has a strange fixation with fruit. Drawing on a number of influences from UK garage, Aphex Twin, J-Dilla, Brian Eno and of course Hot Chip, highlights include the beautiful opener Apple Bobbing, the upbeat club track Go Bananas and the melancholy vocal track Home Time. The fourth Hot Chip album is due in February 2010 and this album will squarely appeal to their fanbase in the meantime.
