Guest Blog : Radim Malinic //// Middle Boop Single of the Week - Everything Everything - Schoolin'


Currently enjoying heavy air play by 6 Music and being fresh from Record of the Week by Zane Lowe, Everything Everything are serving quite a volley with their latest single, Schoolin'.

Hailing from Manchester it's great to hear the band have walked straight past the drum machines section in the music shop, keeping everything pretty raw and to the point. Schoolin' is cleverly fragmented piece of upbeat indie funk which comes with the desired side effect in the form of reaching for the Repeat function on your player. The track opens with growing drum beats that nicely peak during a chorus catchier than swine flu, making you want to play air drums wherever you might be at the time retaining its infectious groove throughout.

The single also contains compulsory dance remixes but there's not really much to say about them. Kids in Camden will love it after a few pints of Sprite but let's be assured that history isn't being rewritten there. Leo Zero mix is ok, though overall the remixes bullied into a corner by the title heavy weight monster that the track is.

Out on Monday 14th June on Geffen Records.
