Psapp is a quiet little electronic duo from England. I was enchanted the first time I heard their song Glue Song. "We like making songs with little noises sticking out," Psapp says, and its true.
They sound like what would be spinning around in Richard D. James’ head if he took a couple of tranquilizers and then mixed in a bit of classical instrumentation and a female vocalist who falls somewhere between Astrud Gilberto and the chick from Portishead. Can I use that term? Chick?
Give a listen to Psapp and stop wondering about the proper pronunciation.
Stuff to Steal: Glue Song and Dad's Breakdown
I love the Glue Song, however, Dad's Breakdown is kind of missing something. I kept waiting for it to rock out, but it never did.
[1] Yeah, well, what are you going to do? Psapp's newest ablum "Tiger, My Friend" is more along the lines of Glue Song but it also fails to meet that high bench mark that I was hoping for. But, it's good none-the-less and I will definately keep it in rotation.
