Mitch Dodge‘Hotchip’ is Baja Frequencia at the peak of their audacious powers. The perfect celebratory track for their tenth anniversary party, it’s a vibrant tour-de-force full of colourful retro computer game sounds, wonked out big room leads and a seriously infectious beat. Paired with a visual that leans into the retro gaming energy, its fierce, fun energy sets the bar high for Fast & Purrious’s release later this year.
Baja Frequencia add:
“We wanted to create the EP’s sound differently from the way we used to work, so all the tracks on the record were largely composed on machines (digitakt, rc 505 , handsonic and pocket operator). “Hotchip” came about during jam sessions, with a melody reminiscent of 90s arcade games, underpinned by a rhythmic mix of breakbeat, afro house, baile funk and chiptune music. A tangy, bassy track with a hint of melancholy”
“Hotchip” is out now!
