50 Fujiya & Miyagi - Transparent Things (2006)
I like this album, it's nice. Fuijya & Miyagi are from Brighton, UK and they pretend to be Japanese and use all kinds of lyrical fragments in a cosy arrangement that's as snug as a bug in a rug. They look to Can, Neu! and Kraftwerk as inspiration and are a much superior version to Hot Chip. I saw them live in Brighton at The Great Escape 2008 and it was one of the gigs of the festival as you felt you could dance and chill-out at the same time which is always a great thing. Everyone was in the Old Market Theatre getting crunk and tipsy and it was a sweet closure to the whole she-bang of shenanigans that you just couldn't plan again. As you can see, Fujiya & Miyagi's motorik- lounge could make you go all goofy, but do it, he's better than Mickey Mouse (but not Donald Duck).
