Soul is the Goal: Electric Wire Hustle

    Remember when Digable Planets Reachin’ and Blowout Comb made you feel cooler than a polar bear’s toenails? There’s something about jazzy funksoul that gives you an air of confidence – not one that’s arrogant or overbearing, but one that’s level-headed and relaxed. It’s the same feeling that New Zealand’s Electric Wire Hustle will give you.

    Whereas Digable Planets is more boom-bap, Electric Wire Hustle skews on the soul side, and keeping cooler than cool – ice cold. They’ve only been around a couple years, but their sound shows how they’re well studied in the John Coltranes, Sam Cookes, George Clintons, and even the J Dillas, DJ Premieres, and Just Blaze’s of the world. It takes the best of what we love and fuses it all together, like a suicide soda. Actually, that’ll probably make you sick. It would be more like a Cherry and Coke Slurpee. If you’re down with our Mayer Hawthorne post a while back, I think you’ll dig this.
