Our single of the week (19th February 2010)
...according to our Business Lady on Thu 18 Feb, 2010.
I wasn't expecting this single to sound anything like this. The group photo implies that this girl/boy/girl three piece are some kinda Nathan Barley-esque London fash-victims but that's not the case at all. These kids have got mad style!! 'Omar' sounds like a glamorous Foot Village with a vocal not to dissimilar to Cominachi's Akiko or OOIOO's Yoshimi. Propulsive rhythms and wild tone generation make for an upbeat experimental dance explosion. From Eygpt with Love poaches some Liquid Liquid percussion and runs with it adding layers of toms, vocals and bass drone, topping things of with some wild tribal rhythm abuse and insane voodoo chanting. Today i've learnt a valuable lesson, you know the one about covers, books and judges. Best thing i've heard this week.Tracklisting:
