..:: #11 - Phantogram - Don’t Move ::..
The best track on Phantogram’s newest EP has a little of everything that makes the band so enchanting. Syncopated drums, Sarah Barthel’s dreamy voice and plenty of swirling synths and guitar. But it’s the chopped up electronic horn and vocal sample that keeps bringing me back. The way it wraps itself around that beat before letting Sarah and her Korg weave in and out makes it pretty hard to keep my body still. Sorry Phantogram, if you’re going to keep writing songs like this, you’d better get used to our “shake, shake, shake.” Best Moment: When all the parts unite at 2:19 and dance together.
