Blending pulsing synths with a simple beat, this song is reminiscent of something Passion Pit could have done, but without the sometimes high and grating vocals and the overly layered messiness inherent in some of their songs. It’s not overdone.
The bridge’s piano line is catchy and provides a bit of light relief from the repetitive but infectious synth lines.
a great pal and fs&c cohort (he once did a spoken word spiel on our track “Waco World” from our debut album) from back in the day, aliester north, who is canadian and now based in his home turf, sent us quite an amusing email recently…
here’s an excerpt:
Hey. True story. I was coming back from the river with the dog on one of our late night walks and my ipod spit up this weird Dylan outake that had me upside down for a minute and as soon as that finished this dissonant horn funk thing came on and put it all the right way back up again. For like 3 minutes I’m having trouble placing this song… We arrive at my front door, and bang – who the fuck is this? FS & C with the noise. Pleasant surprise.

What’s good with it people? I know its monday and people need to be(or are trying to find) new music to listen to. For me, I’m playing this B.o.B (aka Bobby Ray) may 25th mixtape. Been loving his music since “Who da F#*k iz B.o.B” mixtape. My favorite artist since. Super fresh, for the SUPER heavy Bobby Ray fans (Like myself) out there. Features from Asher Roth, Charles Hamilton, J. Cole(My favorite underdog MC) to production from himself, Kanye west, Alchemist and more.
