This young British duo have been described as future-pop, but given the rising popularity of acts blending a glitchy electro palette with pop hooks, it seems this is really the pop music of the present, rather than a trend to come.
Disclosure, CHVRCHES, even James Blake and Frank Ocean - they've all been slowing down electronic dance music, whipping in a few different genres, such as R'n'B, disco, or soul, and experimenting with the outer reaches of their synthesisers, while maintaining a notion of pop.
AlunaGeorge (vocalist Aluna Francis and producer George Reid) tread the same path, mixing deep wobbly beats with spacey percussive sounds and retro RnB vibes.
You Know You Like It was a strong hit single in Britain and here they expand to 14 tracks in a similar vein - silken, slick, and snappy production with Francis' sugary, light-as-air vocals floating above.
Her thin vocal quality is probably the record's biggest drawback, and means, despite some good lyrics, she'll always sound breezy and throw-away rather than having emotional weight.
