British electro duo Goldfrapp release their new single “Believer” on 6 September. Remixes will include the one here, plus others by Yaz’s Vince Clarke (how perfect), Davide Rossi and others.
PopMatters' latest free mix tape presents some aspects of the lasting effects of disco and associated funk, with ace selections from Squarepusher, of Montreal, Matthew Dear, Goldfrapp to keep that boogie in your shoes.
Wearing a jacket made from streams of black tinsel, Alison Goldfrapp led her band through an hour and a half long spirited performance, giving the audience a highly charged glam-rock extravaganza.
It is not daring to evoke the '80s so obviously as Goldfrapp does on their new album. It may be enjoyable in places, but pray that this is an enjoyable leap into irony. Otherwise, it is the abyss.
