PREMIERE: GOBBLE GOBBLE - Boring Horror
GOBBLE GOBBLE’s “Boring Horror” begs for a new classification altogether, though if pressed, we’d say it’s equal measures happy hardcore, freak folk, and short-circuited pop. Mixed, the parts form a delirious soup bursting with frantic electrosounds, trilling vocals, and a speedy drumline. It’s all quite impossible to describe but perhaps if you imagine feeding a llama some uppers and outfitting him with keyboard shoes, you’d come close. The wacky Canadians aren’t releasing the single on deBonton/Forced Exposure ‘til March 7, so buy the wax early right here.

Bragging rights to the first listener who can name all the samples in “Triple Double”—the latest earbleed by love-him-or-hate-him-he’s-still-dancing-on-your-grave poster boy Gregg Gillis bka Girl Talk. There’s “How Low,” “Black And Yellow,” “A Milli,” “Whip My Hair,” and “It Was A Good Day.” There’s “1901,” that jazzy song your mom plays whenever it’s her time to drive, and that Diamond song your dad has on his iPod, and God knows what other multi-colored patches in this mashup panoply. Is it danceable? Not exactly. But this is Girl Talk. It’s not about being danceable, or musical, or even pleasing. It’s not even about being a love letter to the radio (that was arguably done best with 2006’s Night Ripper). It’s about getting asses in the bleachers and hands in the air. And this, and the rest of All Day, does just that.
PREMIERE: Egyptian Hip Hop - Middle Name Period
.jpg)
Much mouthed-over Mancunian teens Egyptian Hip Hop throw together a sound as colourful as their shirts. "Middle Name Period" sounds like a mutant made from genre carrion, beginning in Ratatat's factory funk and ending, via pop and post-punk, in calming calypso peels. Makes sense, then, that their new EP Some Reptiles Grow Wings was produced by Hudson Mohawke, whose dance styles have proven similarly evasive over the last couple of years. Get that new EP from September 20 through Moshi Moshi.
