Canadian nu-disco and electro-funk kings Chromeo have revealed a brand new song this week. Dave 1 and P-Thugg teases the arrival of a fifth studio video with Juice, a plump and succulent dose of the pair’s instantly recognizable cheeky lyrics, sultry basslines, and soulful vocals. Juice’s video was shot by Grammy nominated director David Wilson (Arcade Fire, Arctic Monkeys), and it’s a whole lot of sunshine and fun. Purchase Juice, here, while we wait for news regarding Chromeo’s upcoming 5th album, Head Over Heels.

I'll be there on 2nd February.

Saw Chromeo twice this weekend just gone, after a 12 year wait. Things are truly fucked in the world right now but it felt so good to experience some shared joy and positivity and great tunes. It sounds corny but Dave and P and Chromeo mean so much to me, it was amazing to see them again and I’m so glad I made the effort (including driving 1500km to Adelaide and back hahaha).

Saturday was a wild one here in San Francisco, with countless frustrating show conflicts. If we could have cloned ourselves and gone to everything, we would’ve have. Unfortunately, prior commitments kept us from hitting up the Chromeo show, which we heard was an epic soiree, with Phantoms opening, too. I’m sure the celebrated Montreal electro-funk and nu-disco purveyors dropped their new single with DRAM, Must’ve Been. And I’m sure it was received with much zeal and a whole lot of dancing. At least we get to get down and groovy to the track anytime we want, now that Dave 1 and P-Thugg have dropped a music video for the song off their forthcoming album Head Over Heels. Summery bongos and Chromeo’s signature electro swagger permeate the proper banger. New album Head Over Heels hits the shelves on June 15th. Chromeo will hit the road on an expansive tour this summer, too. Maybe we’ll get to catch them then and make up for missing their headlining show this past weekend. Must’ve Been is available, here.
