You might think "right said fred" is the most nuts "RIYL" I've ever made, but listen to "audacity of huge" and tell me you don't faintly hear "I'm too sexy for my car". Ranked at #27, the comparison is a favorable one as that right said fred was very fun and playful. Unlike that right said fred album, simian mobile disco have a true sense of the dance floor. Otherwise, they're more new-school house like cut copy. "cruel intentions" and "turn up the dial" could be basement jaxx songs sans their signature keyboard loops. "off the map" is a tough synth truck through your bedroom.
