Hot Chip have announced via Twitter that they are on the cusp of finishing album number 5 - this follows the last brilliant record 'One Life Stand' circa 2010. Al Doyle was behind the announcement tweeting on Saturday; hot chip album update: we have one more song to record then we have enough songs and we're gonna stop. Cannot wait to play them to y'all. al It's good see the original bunch back together with solo projects such as The [...]

Let me introduce you to five beautiful tracks which have all been touch by one man – the Detroit-based producer Carl Craig . He has remixed these five tracks with great success and love his sound, it's deep, hard and delicious. With these five tracks everything is left open. And that means that Lulu Rouge and Baba Black saw the potential to re-edit them, and that doesn't exactly make them worse! Enjoy!!! Cesaria Evora , Angola - Carl Craig Remix - Lulu [...]

The xx kicked things off early at 8 pm sharp (4/22) and played a whopping 36 minute set. I've avoided seeing the band live because I never thought the soft-tones would translate well in a live setting, but the drums and bass exceeded expectations. Regardless, this is still a band to hear on headphones or late at night. And 36 minutes? Whatup? I was really there to see Hot Chip having not seen them since their promo show for Made in the Dark at Highline Ballroom a few years [...]
Hot Chip - I Feel Better Decidedly strange video for the third single taken from 'One Life Stand'
I Feel Better" is the second single from Hot Chip's fourth full-length album,"One Life Stand".

Stumbling across Joe Goddard lugging about a basket filled with nothing more than an oversized Kinder egg in the Easter aisle of a neighbouring supermarket is about as surreal as southwest London synth partisans Hot Chip get tonight. Not that that's particularly detrimental, considering there was a quite recent era in which the good ship Hot Chip sailed all too close to the Bermuda Triangle of genre irrelevance that's since swallowed the likes of Justice and Little Boots, devouring their capricious electro-light and smothering it beneath an ocean of indifference. Bolstered by live drums and the aestival Caribbean [...]

¿Se imaginaron que Hot Chip podría ser el nombre de una boy band? Bajo ese concepto inicia este video de I Feel Better, el nuevo single de Hot Chip. Menos mal que no en todo el video tenemos que ver a una boy band, ya saben de esos que solo salen a sonreír y a bailar, sino a la mitad del video aparece una especie de freak redentor que acaba con esos entes del pop arriba del escenario, me ha encantado la parodia al pop de este video que pertenece al [...]
Hot Chip no es una boy band pero no se les dificultaría mucho serlo. El siguiente video fue dirigido por Peter Serafinowicz y de una manera muy noventera convirtió a "I Feel Better" en una canción para chicas gritonas que se quitarían el brassier en el show de su boy band favorita. La diferencia en este video es bastante obvia y ustedes la notarán tan pronto como las chicas dirigan su atención a una luz un tanto espiritual que las dejará boquiabiertas. [Vía: Pitchfork ]

Finally getting around to sharing this remix from Hot Chip's stellar '10 album One Night Stand . There's not much to say about this, except throw it on your party mix, pretty much right now.

You can't say these bills aren't stacked: March 22nd @ Terminal 5, $35 (w/ The Xx) March 23rd @ Terminal 5 , $35 (w/ Gang Gang Dance) August 4th @ Central Park Summer Stage, [...]

Θυμάμαι ακόμα πόσο περήφανο ένιωσε το ελληνικό έθνος όταν ανακάλυψε τον Alex Καπράνο. Με το που έσκασαν (με αρκετό πάταγο) στα παγκόσμια μουσικά δρώμενα οι Franz Ferdinand, σερφάροντας ατσαλάκωτοι πάνω στο μετα-νέο κύμα, η Ελλάς βρήκε στο πρόσωπο του ψηλόλιγνου και κομψού Ελληνοάγγλου ένα ακόμα άξιο τέκνο της φυλής που «τα κατάφερε» όπως κάθε άξιο τέκνο της φυλής οφείλει. Και δώσ'του αφιερώματα, ακόμα κι από ανθρώπους που έμοιαζαν να έχουν ν'ασχοληθούν με την τρέχουσα μουσική πραγματικότητα από το 1990 (το αργότερο). Ακόμα κι ότι είχε ονομάσει την προηγούμενη μπάντα του "The Karelia" ανακάλυψαν οι άτιμοι, άσχετα αν δεν [...]

So Hot Chip 's album One Life Stand has been out for a minute, but I'm just processing my feelings about it now. I was really excited after hearing the title track, "One Life Stand", way back in December and had been looking forward to the release date ever since then. To be honest upon first listen, I kind of hated it, but it turns out I just wasn't in the right mindset. I had to wait for the more "expected" (ie danceable) tracks like "I Feel Better" (which is downright epic) and [...]

Hot Chips's latest album was released a couple of weeks ago and it went down like a lead balloon - we had a listen and read a few reviews and it really was a poor performance. One review from the BBC said:"Of the ten tracks on this fourth album, five should have been left out on a Monday morning with the bins." he added:"We once thought Hot Chip could walk on water – but half of the songs on this album sound like a band treading it instead." Thankfully Hot Chip has decided to do one [...]
The most noticeable difference between One Life Stand and Hot Chip's past work is how smooth it sounds. The jarring, less than melodious bits of noise that dotted older material have been replaced by a largely uninterrupted 50 minutes of safe streamlined pop. Whereas tracks like "Over and Over" flitted [...]
Track: Hot Chip- One Life Stand (5) /hotchip
Great 303 acid squelch dancefloor interpretation of Hot Chip thanks to Beat favourite Carl Craig .
Los chicos de Hot Chip están en el ojo de la tormenta porque recientemente lanzaron recientemente (de hecho fue hace solamente 2 días) One Life Stands y por ese motivo todos hablan de ellos. Ahora los integrantes del grupo le dieron una entrevista a la gente de NME , con quienes aseguraron que la grabación de la nueva producción fue "fácil" porque se trató de la primera producción que realizaron en un estudio como es debido. Hay que destacar que el grupo se hizo famoso mundialmente con Made [...]
One Life Stand is out today on Astralwerks. It's fun, it's hoppy, it's...

Hey remember Hot Chip, that quirky electro dance band that always keeps it silly and fun? Well let me introduce you to Hot Chip, that quirky sometimes quirky electro dance electro dance-influenced indie band that always keeps it silly and fun sometimes keeps it silly and fun but suffers from heartbreak, just like the rest of us. Let me then introduce you to their fourth first album, One Life Stand . As they have mentioned in several interviews, Hot Chip has shied away from the sometimes-considered "shallow" dance music for [...]

The UK masters of the fun dance jams Hot Chip returned this week with their latest release titled One Life Stand. As anyone who has heard their records before or seen their live show knows, no band really infuses a fun vibe into their music and genuinely seems to be loving what they are doing any more than these guys, and that great trend continues once again on this fine effort. The record is still brand new, so this could change, but though I'm not sure that it has the instantly recognizable surefire dance floor hits that the [...]
