I have only heard one song but according to the press release: “Murphy co-wrote and sings the lyrics of the album opening track, “Tuff Enuff.” It was Murphy’s challenge to Marcus about the upcoming birth of his daughter. From there, the album moves on to “I Found Love,” which recalls the vocal style of Barry White. “Losing My Patience” features vocals from Hot Chip’s Alexis Taylor while LCD Soundsystem’s Nancy Whang adds her sultry voice to ‘Take ‘Em Up.’
The one song I have heard, the seven minute plus “I Found Love” gave me a refresher course in my deep affection for pure techno. Against a nagging synth hook, drums slash and burn like lightening strikes. Best pure dance I’ve heard this year that doesn’t have Trouble And Bass fixed to it.
Don’t know if Shit Robot (apparently “Shit” is the new “the”) but I’ll keep you updated.
