New Chromeo - "100% (Trackademicks' B-LIVE Pemberton Mix)"

Chromeo have always been one part keyboards, one part funk, and a smattering of non-threatening, occasionally comedic sexual undertones. Until "Momma's Boy" happened. At the Woodies they promised new material more along those Daryl Hall-approved lines, but first, there will...  CONTINUE READING NEW CHROMEO - "100% (TRACKADEMICKS' B-LIVE PEMBERTON MIX)"»

New Chromeo Video - "Momma's Boy"

After the pizza truck side panels come to life of the "Tenderoni" video, a minimal, two-tone traced animation clip seems understated to the point of reverse excess. Especially for Chromeo. But that all serves to underscore something you don't often...  CONTINUE READING NEW CHROMEO VIDEO - "MOMMA'S BOY"»
