Sweet sweltering seafood sex - new song from Toro Y Moi, yum!
After Causers Of This (one of our favourite records of 2010) and a couple of remixes, an EP and a 7", our boi Chaz steps up to 2011 with his next album, Underneath The Pine, due end of February.
Brand spanking new single "Still Sound" enjoys somewhat of a more French retro pop styling. A handsome bassline struts the disco-funk, loungey jazz keys twinkle away and his sweet register rides some nifty effects to further enhance the urgency of his sentiment. To top it all off, super smooth production makes it all come together in a way that would make both Phoenix and Tahiti 80 blush.
Whether or not this new direction comes hot off his recent Les Sins dabbling, ditching the more chill wave tinged sound completely on his latest release remains to be heard. It's definitely more in line with older tracks like "Low Shoulder" and "Talamak" that opts for more dance floor friendliness. Or perhaps it's simply the sporting of some new found sex appeal. To be frank, I don't care. I'm just looking forward to hearing more stuff that's as outstanding as this:
Toro Y Moi - Still Sound
