^ ugh, sounds like some mid 90s house/jazzy jungle/lounge/sushi bar music

it doesnt really have a hint of irony to it, but most of the songs are zzz with a couple exceptions. but i think those songs are very good.

Escort are good.
jaymc, you dumbass. David linked to Private's video in his revive. That's kind of what we've been talking about in this section of thread.

still dont get why these dudes dont just like do a comeback album for chaka khan or some shit
Private sucks, i heard the obscure boogie track that they explicitly ripped off of for their single on trusme's release party mix and i felt gross for even bringing them up

This song is tepid!

this was wrong, what was tepid was that it was a cover masquerading as a new song

that makes sense then i guess

of all the acts to surface around the period these guys came onto the scene, I never would've guessed they would be the ones to still be standing. their persistance is pretty inspiring.
― Loverboy (Spinspin Sugah), Tuesday, 27 July 2010 18:32 (thirteen years ago) link
Personally I don't think they've made any progress since Fancy Footwork(2007) and I am wondering why I bothered after She's in Control (2004). Everything else is regression.

weird thing to say about a retro act
― kim cardassian (s1ocki), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 02:26 (thirteen years ago) link
fancy footwork was way way better than shes in control
― blap...tremendo (deej), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 02:48 (thirteen years ago) link
We need retro because some people didn't pay attention to cool electro records the first time around. I listened to Fancy Footwork about eighty two times and thought it was a big fat DUD. The magic just isn't there. I think I gave them a chance. They're kind of asking for it, nothing can top classics like "You're so Gangsta" or even "Woman Friend".
― Shut Up. Kenny G. Etc. (u s steel), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 02:52 (thirteen years ago) link
'youre so gangsta' is not a classic
― blap...tremendo (deej), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 02:55 (thirteen years ago) link
If you don't love electro it isn't.
― Shut Up. Kenny G. Etc. (u s steel), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 03:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Anyway....I'm willing to give Business Casual a chance....when it comes out.

thats like every song of theirs. 'youre so gangsta' is a corny conceit & pretty repetitive & just not that good. the first record was super spotty in the songwriting dept. & that track was no exception ... the singing on the verses is really bad & annoying, and the beat is super basic & lame. i dunno just listening to it again, very thin & kinda actively abrasive
― blap...tremendo (deej), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 03:47 (thirteen years ago) link
like, ive been listening to 80s electro for years dude ... this is just a really thin pastiche & so is most of that first record. they def stepped up the songwriting a whole bunch on the second one, the production is a lot tighter, its just a much much better & more consistent record
― blap...tremendo (deej), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 03:49 (thirteen years ago) link
i mean those fucking awful guitars on 'destination: overdrive' ... seriously?? u think this record is all that?
needy girl is still teh best tho
― kim cardassian (s1ocki), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 04:04 (thirteen years ago) link
yah that one really works
― blap...tremendo (deej), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 04:07 (thirteen years ago) link
bout the only track i think
needy girl & fancy footwork are 10/10 imo... could give or take pretty much everything else
