New Shit Robot album incoming after 3 years, and it’s been worth the wait. I’m a big big fan, and after We Got A Love, which was bouncy, but a bit overproduced and ‘big’, this is a sharp turn 90 degrees. It’s apparently produced entirely on hardware and not massively reworked, but lots of live takes. It’s a much more ‘studio’ album, but sounds like proper dance music, and yet it’s still packed full of emotion.
This is the opening single, with frequent collaborator Alexis Taylor and it’s all pads and wistful lyrics. I love it. And the video isn’t bad either.
Sounds totally like a Hot Chip tune, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
This sounds good. Looking forward to the album!
The album is fantastic. Highly recommended, and out in May.
You’ve always championed this bunch but I’ve never found the time to really explore them. Should I start here or an earlier album (I am almost certain I’ve asked this before! Sorry!)
