have gone and released 'Hi' as a single which was one of the highlights
of the 'The Only Thing I Ever Wanted' long
player. It's utterly infectious with its super catchy melodies and
quirky percussion. It's difficult to pinpoint the vibe of this track,
it has almost a latin or calypso feel to it and the Marimba is great.
Phil reckons it sounds like a cross between
Tom Waits and Pram. I think the toytown childlike feel is almost like what
Plaid
would do if you gave them a glockenspiel. This is a million miles from
the type of stuff I normally listen to but I just cannot resist the
charms of this limited 7". B-side 'Apple block' is what
Stereolab
might sound like had they not gone all Jazz. This is perfect pop music
and comes in an ace little printed PVC sleeve. Single of the week, on
Domino
