Album Review: Chromeo Are “Head Over Heels” For The Party Scene

Chromeo’s Head Over Heels is electro funk on the catwalk! Sexy, funky, and unabashedly retro, you want to strap on some red pumps and drive on down to the fabulous, city nightlife. From Ibiza to NYC, Chromeo have singlehandedly embodied what a party should sound like.

From “Bad Decision” to “Room Service”, Chromeo are NOT hiding their goal to soundtrack your wild night. David Macklovitch uses his voice like he is moon-walking to your heart. He gives a vibrancy to his vocality that assures there is always a fun, flirtatious nature to this album in lyrics, as well. After all, Head Over Heals, for the most part, sings to that fiery, immediate connection known as “love at first sight”.

Whether it is love or fate does not matter because, for a night, you “Don’t Sleep (featuring French Montana & Stefflon Don)”, you swear the “Bedroom Calling”, or you have a list of what it “Must’ve Been (featuring DRAM)” that inspired your passionate moves. The duo are known for their nu-disco splashiness; allowing Millennials to feel the glory of 70’s and 80’s synth-pop as if it was premiering in the club scene today. By making the “old” feel so fresh you feel old for not knowing it, they have assured themselves as the Kings of a very specific sound that is, technically, common. Electro – funk is on the rise, and they are, obviously, not the creators of this genre, but Head Over Heels shows they are the owners of it. This album plays to mischief, sultriness, and humanity’s ultimate desire to let loose and let love.Chromeo – Juice (Official Video)

For Chromeo, Head Over Heels feels like a continuation of their dynamism; amping much of their same funkadelic sound for what it is: different. The album is not about innovating or introducing a newness to the duo as much as showing that they will always feel new, and you are simply jumping on the bandwagon. Chromeo have become staples of the modern, disco scene, and I am HEAD OVER HEELS ABOUT IT! For More Information On Chromeo And To Buy Head Over Heels On June 15 Click Here.
