The Weekly Froth! A weekly take on six tracks, most of which have recently popped up somewhere in the blogosphere. Bit of a mixed bag with a slight leaning towards house, disco, and remixes, but generally just anything that for some reason tickled the writer’s fancy.
Track of the week: ‘Below the Cherry Moon’ by WhoMadeWho
WhoMadeWho will be releasing a new album this year, and I’ll be seeing them live in a few weeks and they’re magnificent while gigging, but sometimes the recorded output doesn’t quite match up to that. The previous single was ace though, and this again is tremendous. These vocals, goodness I love those, and musically they start out with this sad synth, and slowly the drums get in there to start propelling the song forward and to give it some pace. It never really becomes a fast paced track, but it is pacey enough to have people doing a little melancholic dance on the dancefloor. Both the music and the vocals really create an atmosphere, and those are aided by the lyrics, which do suggest some sort of dissatisfaction. Just a very good song, and as said, those vocals, I love those, such a weakness I have for them.
