Nerdz Rool

Hot Chip

Ok any DJ's that can play 'Band on the Run', 'Say My Name' and 'Never Too Much' in the same set and make it work need some sort of statue erected in their honour. They did it yesterday at Sounds on Sunday and left me in total awe. Mixing garage, house, bluegrass, big-band, new-wave, RnB, hip-hop and pop sounds like a disaster waiting to happen, but these guys know how to make it stick together. One look at the track listing for Hot Chip's installment in the now legendary DJ Kicks series and you may get a flavour for what true music nerds and crate-diggers these guys are. Buy it and if you get the chance, see them mix live.
