ABOUT THIS ITEM
Here on Planet Earth Grovesnor is Rob Smoughton, drummer for Hot Chip and student of the old school who loves a good tune and a crisp rhythm. 'I always try to write songs with strong melody and harmony, and with an underlying narrative, but I also own a pair of dancing shoes and love to boogie' he says. Although undeniably influenced by the pop music of the 70s and 80s there’s something supremely modern about the music of Grovesnor. Yes there are echoes of Hall & Oates and Steely Dan but also Daft Punk and The Flaming Lips. Grovesnor’s is a unique blend of future pop - check the ticking drum machines and chill wave synths on "Taxi From The Airport" or the dubstep machinations of "Nitemoves" with its Joe Jackson-on-poppers new millennium vibes. If you're looking for a pop album to soundtrack your summer, add this to your list.
