We Are Back (Peddling The Same Cosmic Bollocks We Always Have)
Lindstrom & Solale – Baby I Can’t Stop (Aeroplane Remix)
As the previous 8 month old post attests to, everything has been changing in 2009. Mark is making a name for himself selling fancy gingham from Sri Lanka, Chris is about to embark on the next chapter of whatever the hell he’s planning, and I’ve been doing the rounds in London Town (or sitting in and watching US TV boxsets).
Hence the blog has been lying here, bewildered and alone like a goth at a wedding. But on a recent work trip up to Leeds, I was listening to a few tracks that I’d picked up on via the wonderful new We Are Hunted site, and this track just fucking blew my socks off. Insomuch that one or two people in the train carriage were giving me very strange looks due to my involuntary seat dancing – and I felt something I hadn’t for a while: the need to shout from the rooftops of my love for a track, and let a load of strangers on the internet know how I feel about it.
One of my top musical memories from this year was watching Mancunian bretheren Crazy P rip up the Red Bull Tent at Bestival this year. Great vocals coupled with booty-rumping bassline that just brought everyone up (if you know what I’m saying). This track captures that vibe beautifully, mixing in a little of Sterling Void’s “Alright” and Chaz Jankel’s “Glad To Know You” (A Best Foot Forward classic, for those of you paying attention).
With a sexy little arpeggio breakdown that the Aeroplane boys are quickly calling their own, this is a bass-led wig out which compels your feet to move and your ass to shake. Which is what BFF was always about.
So we’re back (well, I can’t talk for Chris and Mark, but here I am).
Thanks for all of the encouragement, if it wasn’t for the fact I knew other people missed this thing as much as I do then I wouldn’t be here.
