Trophy Wife 'Canopy Shade' (Blessing Force, 2011)
Propulsive electro-pop with a translucent feel.
I'm expecting big things of the so-far wonderful Trophy Wife.
'Canopy Shade' sees them moving into early Depeche Mode territory whilst still maintaining their urgency. It was co-produced with Warp legends Plaid but there hasn't been significant fucking-up of the sleek lines of the Trophy Wife sound.
This is the lead track from a 10" EP - Bruxism - released on the Oxford label Blessing Force. 250 hand-numbered copies apparently so I'd move fast. The five tracks feature five different producers including Foals' Yannis Philippakis.
Great stuff.
