Be sure to catch Clean Bandit on tour this fall!ġ. It’s a fun little track and while we don’t expect to hear it played out ever, we think it summarizes just how diverse Clean Bandit is.Ĭheck out the full track list below, and listen to an exclusive stream of the album over at The Guardian. Closing our review and the album, ‘Outro – Movement III’ is the most experimental piece and a curious reference to retro 80s and 90s video game sounds, ending with classical strings. ‘New Eyes’ also features vocals (Lizzo) and is a super interesting modern crossover piece of a fast female rapper (think Missy Elliot) with electronic backing and hints of trap influences. The percussion is incredibly simple and complimented perfectly by cool synths, making this our favorite new track. ‘Up Again’ is a much slower piece and showcases the group’s ability to work seamlessly with talented vocalists. Among these, we want to highlight ‘Cologne,’ ‘Up Again,’ ‘New Eyes,’ and ‘Outro – Movement III.’ ‘Cologne’ is one of the danciest from the album, and the vocals blend wonderfully with the classic percussion and moody strings. Tracks 6 through 13 are new material, and we focused our listen here. No need for us to rave further about these, but we will say that they flow surprisingly well together given their diverse sounds and styles. Tracks 2,3,4 and 5 are ‘Extraordinary,’ ‘Dust Clears,’ ‘Rather Be,’ and ‘A+E,’ rounding out the five singles that have be released prior to the full album. This was the second single and has been floating around for some time now. The album opens with ‘Mozart’s House’ featuring the funky vocals of Love Ssega. We had a chance to preview their debut album ‘New Eyes’ and wanted to share the wonderfulness that is Clean Bandit with the rest of the world. Of course, we never could have predicted just how successful their next two singles ‘Rather Be’ and ‘Extraordinary’ would soon be. Except, we are SO not guilty about it!! We were first introduced to the quartet (i-D has a great piece on their story here) nearly one year ago, before ‘Rather Be’ and ‘Extraordinary’ when they released their single ‘Dust Clears.’ We loved Russ Chimes‘ interpretation of the original, but also knew that these four would be making moves.

You know how some people say their guilty pleasure is Katy Perry? Well, here at Side of Groove ours is Clean Bandit.
