Chromeo - Night By Night

"She says I'm not romantic"

Some things you can count on as fact: the Earth is round, the sun will come up tomorrow, and Chromeo will never disappoint. You know what you're going to get with these guys--a retro, uptempo, funky pop song framed as "electronic" music. Their new single, Night By Night, is no different. All their stuff basically sounds the same, after all. But why mess with a winning formula? No one out there now does this sound as much justice as these guys do. Their last album was brilliant and I'm definitely looking forward to the next one, though as far as I know no release date has been set yet. At least we've got the single already, a super-danceable track with a great synth riff that runs throughout. Actually, the synths in general are pretty fantastic this time around. I'm a big fan of the guitar solo, too. This is certainly up there with their best work.
