You know a few months ago, there’s been this mysterious sexy act appearing from the smudgy sidewalks of New York. Shimering through the repetitive corners of hot dog stands and pizza bistros were The Golden Filter. Who were they? Nobody knew, what were they? Sultry and dusky nu-disco.

Sounding like a poppy Genesis, the retro New York & Montreal duo Chromeo’s next 80s tune to get some spotlight is “Momma’s Boy.” Unlike their more reved up footronic songs from Fancy Footwork, Momma’s Boy pokes at you the way 80s comedy does.
Premiered on FN MTV, the video may be one of the real throw [...] Read Full Story
