Chromeo

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Synth pop revisionist duo Chromeo formed in Montreal in the early 21st century, a project of Audio Research honchos Dave One and Pee Thug (news flash: not their given names). Dave handled the electronics; Pee was the frequently processed vocalist. From the beginning, Chromeo made it clear that artful detachment, cheesy electro-funk breakdowns, and gleaming plastic beats -- not serious intent or aggressive musical regime change -- were the name of their well-dressed game. The "Destination Overdrive" single appeared in late 2003, complete with th...[more]

Chromeo is Pee Thug and Dave 1, best friends since their Montreal adolescence, virtuoso musicians, and hip-hop encyclopedias. Pee brings analog synth bass lines and drum machine wizardry a la Cameo and Prince, while Dave contributes melodic tales of urban romance. Their blend of catchy song structures, memorable hooks, and twirling guitar solos conjure up images of either a sophisticated, thugged-out Hall & Oates, or the subconscious meeting of Daft Punk and N.E.R.D.

The duo's second release is the most smoothed-out, hook-heavy, unabashed lovers' funk since...their last album, actually. Chromeo is slick, dripping with reverb, full of Moog riffs, luxurious harmonies, macho guitar solos, and real deal songcraft. Fancy Footwork rolls you through a sleek, melodic world and will be perhaps THE defining good time record of 2007.

Back with a slicker set of moves and immaculately groomed hooks, on Fancy Footwork Chromeo are in even more control of their sound than they were on She's in Control. The duo's debut was undeniably fun, but it was such a slave to the rhythm that, at times, it was numbing; on this album, Chromeo take their electro textures and funky beats in a very pop direction, topping them with memorable melodies and witty lyrics. From the tongue-in-cheek drama of "Intro" ? which conjures visions of Chromeo ascending the    [ read more ]
