One school of thought says that the second you start stripping pop into its component parts you destroy its fragile, intangible magic. NME, mind, would contest that this is a load of bollocks. If Generation Mash-Up taught us anything, it’s that mad-headed juxtapositions can occasionally trigger awesome emotional responses. Listen to ‘Boy From School’ by Hot Chip. Hear how it fuses the thudding robots-take-Ibiza beat of Stardust’s ‘Music Sounds Better With You’ to the melancholy synth swoon of Aphex Twin’s ‘Selected Ambient Works Vol.2’. Feel how it breathes ruddy-cheeked life into this cool digital shell. And marvel at what might be the UK’s best new electronic band coming of age.
