The Blow ParenthesesTomlab

Their myspace page bizarrely bills them as a “Tropical / R&B / Jam Band”. Presumably they decided to click on random genres when setting up the page because a closer description of “lo-fi indie disco” didn’t jump out at them. The Blow are a boy/girl two piece from Portland, Oregon, and from this experience at least, peddle clever Casio fueled little bedroom rumbas. The main track is a joyous lovestruck ode with a sweet chorus of “When you’re holding me, we make a pair of parenthesis”. It’s quirky and fun and comes with a nice variety of remixes, as well as a further fourth little gem, the similarly goofy Get Around. Up the bracket!
