Record Racks,
Song of the Day
>>
It’s the undisco. Yeah, the original version is quite the dancefloor packer. Yeah, the original inspired rap’s first breakout hit. This one, however, is a refreshing take on a song that has become a bit stale, although it’s not helping that we’ve heard Chic’s version 3 million times already. Nile Rodger’s plucky bassline has been replaced by a steady electronic mimic, and can I say how much I love that lush piano that trickles in and out? It complements Brex’ subdued voice quite nicely, and her slight accent adds even more eloquence. Great little bossa vibe is slightly reminiscent of something you might hear from The Postmarks, and Brex’ voice reminds you a bit of Tim Yehezkely (of The Postmarks). 10/19/10
