A spontaneous autobiographical disclosure. A free-form slo-mo listening party. A song a day. Yours to enjoy.

Jet set hot nerdness
Oh sweetness, does this one just nail it! Grovesnor (aka Rob Smoughton) is a sometimes-member of Hot Chip, maker of excellent mixes, and top crafter of H&O-nodding, '80s neon r&b pop gems. He's also aces at turning a weakness into strength. I think his aesthetic wouldn't work half as well if he didn't totally foreground the schlub factor. He clearly know that the night may belong to the beautiful, but the nerds create the soundtracks.
We are not in it for the money. Songblague runs on communitarian values, love of music, and a dash of vanity. If you like what you're hearing, please purchase it from one of the remaining retailers who would like to sell it to you.
