Rock and Pop: Record of the week - Moon Crooner by Egyptian Hip-Hop

Published: 19 August 2010

A BIT of plinky synth, ailing indie boy vocals and some beats here and there – this seems to be the formula for what the cool kids are listening to. Egyptian Hip-Hop (who are neither of these things) have seized upon this. It’s easy to imagine hearing this on the Barfly dancefloor, though I fear the synth section, while the best feature, is at risk of being particularly annoy­ing. Moon Crooner EP is out September 20.
