SHREM'S DOUBLE TROUBLE: "CHAMAKAY" - Blood Orange /// "OVER YOUR SHOULDER" - Chromeo


Two long-anticipated singles hugely influenced by 1980's have emerged this week. First of all the incredibly talented Devonté Hynes, better known as Blood Orange, released his smooth piece of oldschool flavoured funk pop "Chamakay" featuring one of his female muses Caroline Polachek from Chairlift (although have I almost immediately mistaken her for Solange). This is the first teaser from Blood Orange's new album "Cupid Deluxe" and it does sound rather delicious and promising. Then we have the Canadian heroes of funk Chromeo and their disco answer to Daft Punk's more-than-tiring-at-this-stage "Get Lucky". Sleek production, summery vibe and instantly catchy melody pretty much guarantees this come-back single a total success. Sunny grooves.
