Need to get my dub funk fix from somewhere, this week I have been re-visiting Savoy. Hailing from Brooklyn, NY, Savoy gives their listeners some unique electronica; enough bass for the bassheads, enough rhythm and jive for the dancers, great dance music tunes.
I saw them open for Pretty Lights two years ago in NC before I knew who PL was. I remember after their set being completely satisfied with the crazy dancing I had just done, thinking they were actually PL and getting ready to leave.. But then Derek Smith came on stage, and the rest is history. Back to savoy..
“Nothin for Nothin” is only 6 tracks, but they all rock. No need to skip any, jut press play, and be prepared for what might go down in the next 35 minutes. I’ve witnessed entire house dance parties emerge out of no where, clothes flying everywhere, people who you didn’t even know listened to anything but NPR dancing like it’s 1999, sweating like they just ran the 26.3 mike NY marathon.
Their remix to “hella good” is hella great, ( wow I just used hella in a sentence.) “Life of the Party” is a dope song as well.
