Bongos are back!
Blessed relief is in sight - as the weekend slowly hoves into view... [Conundrum: why do four-day weeks after a Bank Holiday always feel like the longest?!]
...and to our delight here at Dolores Delargo Towers, the artist known as HiFi Sean (former lead singer of the short-lived 90s "hippie revivalists" the Soup Dragons) has turned his hand to reviving an altogether more favourable genre - a concept described by the hipsters of what passes for a "music press" these days as "Nu-Disco".
On hearing this, his latest single, I thoroughly approve of such a revival:
When was the last time you heard bongos on a dance choon? Faboo...
Thank (Nu-or-any-kind-of) Disco It's Friday!
Have a good one, dear reader.

It's mesmerising to listen and watch the gentleman aloft at the same time. How is he doing it in time??!
ReplyDeleteI liked the Soup Dragons!! This Nu-Disco has a very retro feel.

Maybe we should call it "Old-Nu-Disco", or would that just make hipsters' heads explode? Jx
DeleteBabalu indeed.

I am not sure but I would think the lovely normadesmond is quoting from the 1976 Mel Brooks film 'Silent Movie'
DeleteLove that track and YES those bongos' are rather hypnotic.
ReplyDeleteIt's an idea for a Gay Pride outfit... Jx
