Black and Gold and Pretty Tasty

 

Meet the tune that you'll be sick to death of by September. Black and Gold by US electro pop soul boy Sam Sparro was released last year, but following a major label deal is set for re-release at the end of this month with Pete Tong and Jo Whiley already queuing up to show some love. Expect it to blow up in Miami and dominate Ibiza.

Black and Gold is a super sexy slice of LA pop, with a cool vibe, a metronomic groove and positively dripping with Sparro's silky vocals. My old school mate Jon Harding would of called me a twat for liking this, but then my first girlfriend Sarah something or other (who wore frog earings and dribbled when she kissed) would have loved it. Not that you care.

The remix package is worth avoiding though as it's the usual dutiful major label offering and not a patch on the original.
