Review: Phenomenal Handclap Band – 15 to 20
Artist: Phenomenal Handclap Band
Title: 15 to 20
Label: Gomma
Genre: Disco/Nu-Disco
Format: Digital
Buy From: Juno Download
Brooklyn’s The Phenomenal Handclap Band, two DJ’s turned eight-piece instrumental space-disco experiment, have returned for the second time this year with a few friends.
Their self-titled debut’s highlight, “15 to 20”, featuring the vocals of Lady Tigra, has now been released as a single on Gomma Records alongside remixes by such noteworthy producers as David E. Sugar, Glimmers, Mansfield and Telonius.
This is vintage disco with an acid wash for indie dancefloors, and each producer features their own synthesized vision of the original without losing sight of or overcomplicating its intention.
