Hot Chip
Over and Over

EMI

WE SAY

First released in March (where it positioned at no32), we applaud the decision to re-release this single. No matter what the outcome of tonight's Mercury Prize (and the odds for Hot Chip have narrowed in recent weeks), it's a track that deserves more attention from radio this time around. We're tipping them to take the prize. The Warning is a deserving winner, an album of groundbreaking and inspiring music, our favourite on the shortlist. This track gets better with every listen. JF London Gig: 11 October, Astoria WC2
