We say

This playful party track which makes industrious use of the MGMT sample, marks the first release proper for Chiddy Bang and it is poised well for crossover success in the UK. Currently a BBC Radio 1 Record of the Week on Sara Cox (in for Fearne Cotton), it's also picking up plays on BBC 1Xtra from Tim Westwood. Chiddy Bang, the young Philadelphia duo consisting of Chiddy and Xaphoon Jones, turned heads when their debut mixtape ‘The Swelly Express' had over 100,000 downloads in a month. It's an exciting listen too, sampling Sufjan Stevens' 'Chicago' (on the brilliant 'All Things Go'), Passion Pit and more. The Opposite Of Adults EP is released next month. JF
