New York Electronic duo The Knocks would like to return to the classics…
WHOA. Talk about a summertime JAM. How are those Nile Rodgers-esque guitar chops?!
Now while the seasonal timing might be a little off for this part of the world there’s no doubt that this is going to be ALL OVER your radio dial very soon.
Plus, if you crank the music loud enough and close your eyes you’ll find yourself poolside on a banana lounge in no time.
What Makes a Classic?
After serving up an instant classic of their own The Knocks delved into the crates to put together a mix of tracks they deem to be of the ‘classic’ variety and had this to say -
Everyone has their own definition of the word “classic” and their own opinions on what a “classic” song is. This is a collection of songs from a range of different time periods and genres that we consider classic in our eyes. Some original versions, some edits or remixes but still classic song writing in our opinion. We hope you enjoy our walk down memory lane…
