HOT CHIP - The Warning, Emi

*Double LP includes bonus 7"* Representing the point in a record collection where Prince, Talking Heads, Madlib and every drunken Indie disco you've ever attended converge, Hot Chip seem poised to buck the trend of all hype being synonymous with shit, through the release of 2nd full-length 'The Warning'. Herky-jerky without reliance on the increasingly threadbare Fire Engines/Gang Of Four/ACR schematic, Hot Chip delight in cramming their music full of gloopy electro, spindly guitars and right-angled vocals - the resultant gumbo appearing both euphorically spontaneous and intricately complex. Opening with a smear of ice-water synths, first song 'Careful' sets the tone perfectly - puncturing a deceptively calm introduction with Vicks Vapour rave-stabs, a laconic vocal and frenetic beats a-go-go. From here, Hot Chip change gear completely for the syrupy electro-slink 'Boy From School', wherein the London-based mob plunder Daft Punk's less squelchy back-catalogue for inspiration, before the decks are cleared on previous single and indie-pop gem 'Over And Over'. Elsewhere, 'Arrest Yourself' is the sound of Beck sniffing a line of sherbet out back, 'So Glad To See You' tickles an emotional duet from a vocoder foundation, whilst 'No Fit State' is a synth-addled sing-a-long stomp. Caution, contents might be hot...
