Chromeo Artist Snapshot:

Montreal's Chromeo keep their electronic music frame of reference firmly in the analogue '80s era of Prince, Cameo, and Zapp. With their background in funk and hip-hop, P-Thugg and Dave 1 avoid the traps of contemporary club music, focusing instead on the squelches and sizzles of talkbox-aided electro-funk love jams. Bringing back the neon glamorous love grooves without resorting to jokes and irony, the duo established enough following (aided by slick, fittingly throwback videos) to pack large venues and scale the Billboard charts.

Review

Uncut (p.93) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[S]leek and highly finished, studiously retro electro-pop..."
Alternative Press (p.183) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "This sophomore full-length wears its newly found voluptuousness well; even the extra layer of cheesy fat in the vocal department and yacht-rock guitar squeals go down easy."
CMJ (p.41) - "[T]heir mirror-ball spinners are perfect late-night foot fodder."
Vibe (p.74) - "FOOTWORK's array of cheese-ball synths, vocoder distortions, and earnest lyrics shimmer with the nostalgic poppiness of Club Nouveau or Wham!..."

Title Note

The Montreal-based electro-funk duo of Dave 1 and P. Thugg, better known as Chromeo, first made a splash in 2004 with their retro-flavored debut, SHE'S IN CONTROL. Drawing upon their shared love of `80s pop-R&B and synthetic talk box-driven funk, their follow up, FANCY FOOTWORK, delves even further into retro kitsch, playfully resurrecting the innocence and exuberance of that bygone time. Similar dance music pundits may have revisited Reagan-era synthesizers to get that elusive "vintage" sound, but Chromeo practically ooze synthetic funk from every groove. If the ironically delivered sleaze of "Tenderoni" lyrically places tongue firmly in cheek, the intricately performed lead synth lines still demand to be taken seriously. Revealing a level of musicianship that belies the lightheartedness of their lyrics, FANCY FOOTWORK manages to combine the spirit of past funk flights-of-fancy with a fresh and witty modern-day perspective.
