Les Sins – “Bother”
Regardless of how you feel about personal space and its relationship to working, it’s difficult to deny that Les Sins’ “Brother” is infectious. The club track slinks along a buoyant bassline and drums that owe their swing to hip-hop as much as house, while the acid-washed synths and clean piano jabs keep it psychic yet funky. Listeners will likely be divided on the repetitive, stuttering vocal, which loops probably over fifty times throughout the song. (How much more dance instructor-esque chiding can house music accommodate? More, apparently.) But we’ve decided to follow our feet and put it up anyway. Stick around for the song’s oblique and colorful conclusion, which recalls some of Les Sins’ more recognizable work as Toro y Moi.
