Track: Simian Mobile Disco – Audacity Of Huge
TRACK REVIEW: Simian Mobile Disco – Audacity of Huge
words: Martyn Young
On hearing this first single from Simian Mobile Disco’s forthcoming second record “Temporary Pleasures”, the Chemical Brothers should be extremely worried that their position as the Uk’s pre-eminent dance duo is about to be usurped.
“Audacity of Huge” is an apt title for this electro monster of a tune. The beats twitch, flicker and jerk around in that familiar SMD style, however, the real revelation on this track is an outstanding, mesmerising vocal performance by Yeasayer’s Chris Keating. The song relentlessly forces its way into your brain as Keating delivers an amazing vocal performance, almost rapping his way through completely random yet captivating lyrics.
This is the sexiest, funkiest, catchiest dance track you will hear all year. Simian Mobile Disco are the new kings of UK dance.
