Solomun - See You Everyday Alone
[audio:http://c243618.r18.cf1.rackcdn.com/EverydaySolomun.mp3]
We need to take things less seriously.
I'm serious. It's no use getting so wound up in whether Crosstown Rebels are the new Wolf + Lamb that you forget how fun everything was supposed to be. There is nothing exciting about Internet rants, press releases, or yet another artsy podcast.
Sampling Amerie does not necessarily solve all our problems. It does help quite a lot, though. Solomun has released nothing but gold this year, and his most recent 12" is no exception. Splitting a release with Stimming (and his mom, but let's not get into that), he puts out yet another piece of funky house, this time with an extra touch of pop sensation.
So, funky house, big news. But Solomun is fun. Amerie's vocals are pitched down to the point where the clean pop sensation is a distant shadow, exposing the deeper subtleties that you never noticed when this was top 40 material. It's a tool, yes. But then again, aren't we all? While we're at it, we might as well have some fun.
