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: ‘Anna’ by Charlotte Gainsbourg (Moonlight Matters remix)
A few weeks ago I was raving about a Joakim remix of a Charlotte Gainsbourg track in this column, so lets see if Moonlight Matters finds the same golden formula with this one. Moonlight Matters make it a dancey, more straight forward synth-pop affair. It’s got a catchy tune, a little beat to help you on your way, and naturally sometimes that’s put on hold for a bit of Gainsbourg’s vocals. I love how they strip it down for her vocals, and then while she sings they start building and building again until you have this kind of summery pop thing going on that I see happening at some sort of beach festival of some sorts. All the while giving Gainsbourg’s voice enough room to work with, so she’s never fighting against the music or anything. So Gainsbourg is quite an inspiring woman I reckon. It might not have the greatness of the Joakim remix, but it sure is a very lovely summery pop tune.
