All acts featured come with the Best Fit ‘Seal Of Approval’ so you can be assured that your hard earned cash will be well spent. To tempt your wallets this week we’ve gathered a rather London centric collection of dates from the likes of Patti Smith , The Breeders and [...]
Antes de chegarem à actual sonoridade de pop psicadélico - onde moram influências de Hot Chip , Harmonia 76 com o brilhante Brian Eno , Roxy Music meets Franz Ferdinand e um pouco da insanidade electrónica de Kraftwerk – Outfit andaram em busca da sua felicidade musical. No Verão de 2011, a banda de Liverpool deu-se a conhecer ao mundo, pela discográfica Double Denim . Em 2012, Another Night’s Dreams Reach Earth Again EP, vestia-se de negro, numa tentativa de privacidade melancólica, disfarçada pelo [...]
Max Bell has a pocket full of stones. There's no shortage of posts about The Outfit, TX here on this site (see here , here , and here ). Each is essentially for the same reason: the Houston, Texas trio is responsible for one of the best albums of 2012. And so, this post is really no different. It's rare that an album sticks in heavy rotation seven months after its release. Starships & Rockets: Cooly Fooly Space Age Funk feels like it has actual staying power and could warrant adding [...]

At last, the sun (at least in London) has got his hat on. Hip hip hip hooray! In Tracks we always seem to end up talking about the weather, but is it any wonder when summer just won't get its arse in gear? Whether it's down to the blue skies or sheer cabin fever from the previous arctic temperatures, a few of our writers this week have gone proper loco for pop music. Chvrches, Disclosure, and Icona Pop have all had the same idea, and luckily they're on hand with the music to match. There's all sorts [...]
![[new] Outfit: I Want What’s Best](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4980113_lg.jpg)
After being quiet for a while, UK new wave outfit Outfit (see what I did there!) have just released the first single, I Want What’s Best , from their forthcoming debut LP Performance , which comes out on August 12th. Give it a spin below.
Remember Outfit ? You’re forgiven if you don’t, because we’d pretty much forgotten about them as well, even though we’d named them as Ones to Watch for 2012 on Breaking More Waves and they cropped up on the Blog Sound of 2012 long list. Yet since all that ‘they’re going to be big’ nonsense that us overly excitable music blogs like to do rather too often, all we've had that is big is (nearly) a big fat nothing. Which is no good to anyone is it? [...]

El quinto británico electro pop nos presenta el primer sencillo del disco, " I Want What's [...]
< Newcastle is proving to be quite the hot bed for disco and house bands of late. Mausi have already delivered one of the singles of the year and now Outfit pop up with the slow burning ‘I Want What’s Best’; the first track to be released from the bands debut record Performance , which is reeleased this coming August via the brilliant Double Denim Records. The hook of this track will creep up on you like that chap in Splinter Cell and club you over [...]
Coming after a few cheekily shared demos over the past few months, Liverpool's Outfit are finally done with their debut album Performance (out August 12 via Double Denim ) and "I Want What's Best" is the first singe to be released today. continue reading >>
Desde Liverpool llega Outfit, una banda que después de varios EPs con los que han experimentado varios sonidos, nos presentan "I Wan't What's Best" el primer sencillo de su álbum debut Performance . Enjoy.
Young Brits idolize Eno and Hot Chip; make a foggy-eyed summer jam. That's the story behind Outfit 's "I Want What's Best" – a simple-sounding exercise that actually flowers into a textured, danceable mountain.

Outfit's debut album 'Performance' is the result of two years of ever-increasing anticipation being directed towards the Liverpudlians. These guys have gone from strength-to-strength, from sickly, but ever-inventive debut singles to the game-changing ' Another Night's Dreams Reach Earth Again ' EP. Throughout they've stuck with the Double Denim label , and DD release the eventual debut on 12th August. Here's the latest cut, following on from the title-track : 'I Want What's Best'. True to form, it stays resolute to Outfit's self-imposed calling card of writing pop tracks that sneak up and impose [...]

While I can't champion every band on this compilation, I can guarantee there are more than a couple of gems to be found among these songs. Also, this may be a necessary palette cleansing, given the abominations of music to emerge from Denver onto the international stage in the last year or 5. Do yourself a favor and click this link to get the compilation right now [...]
