I didn't see a thread for these guys, so...

What do you guys think of Chromeo and their new album Fancy Footwork? I like it but what I like most about it is it's crossover appeal. I actually saw the video for "Bonafied Lovin'(Tough Guys" on Fuse, and burned the album for a couple friends of mine who get all of their music via the radio, the both enjoyed it very much. Overall, the album is really, really fun though.

Thoughts?

I made this mix this past spring with a lot of Chromeo, Cut Copy, MiamiHorror, and the like, and everyone I played it for ate it right up. So yes, I would agree that it has MAJOR crossover appeal.

Also, I dig Fancy Footwork -- loads of fun.

Heh, this is the most hedonistic fun I've derived from a 2007 album. Ridiculous, ludicrously entertaining, awesome. New entry into my top 20 of the year.

Very fun album. I have no problem popping it in whenever.

If you don't like it, you'll be so square you'll turn into a cube. Yeah.
