Just got his second album (Fancy Footwork), after hearing one of his singles and I am hooked on it. It is not influenced by eighties music, it is absolutely drenched in it. This seriously could have been made in 1986. As far as I can hear, none of the sounds in this album are contemporary. Good lyric writing too. I would highly recommend this guy to anyone who likes synthpop. An 80's album made with todays technology never sounded so good!.

I bought this last summer -- I have enjoyed it as a guilty pleasure. Fun hooks, tongue-in-cheek humor, and some great eighties funk style sounds. FWIW I think Chromeo is a Montreal duo. I'd also recommend it if you're a fan of eighties funk/R&B.

Hi mojowkn.
I'm told it's electro-funk or something. 'm not familiar with this "genre", hence my uninitiated description above. I love the hell out of this music though. Can you recommend either new or 80's bands that sound like this? Cheers.

I discovered Chromeo thanks to an episode of Yo Gabba Gabba, of all things. I've gotten a few of their songs and like them. There's some old school synthpop/funk going on there. Good stuff.
