I had a big pile of unlistened-to material staring at me this afternoon, so I finally decided to do something about it and have a good long listening session. Generally bands don’t fare too well when I am going through this process: getting through that much music usually means I’m pretty harsh and toss stuff out without giving it much of a chance. And then along came a Gang Gang Dance mp3 entitled “Princes”.

Apparently GGD are a New York-based band that have been active in their local indie scene for quite some time. They’ve just been signed to Warp Records and, if this track is anything to go by, there will be huge things happening for them from here on.

Anyway, the tune: I listened. And listened again. And listened to it loud. And listened to it quiet. This sound is HOT. The contents include zesty squelchy synth basslines, catchy intricate beats/percussion, noodly guitars and great sonic texture. In a nutshell, it’s part-2-step-meets-tribal-meets-electro-meets-friggin-huge-jam. Tinchy Stryder gives up a hot em-cee performance and if this track doesn’t have you reaching to turn the volume up and bob your head, I think you might need to get out for a bit of fresh air.

You need to put this track on your party playlist. NOW.
