EP Beat: Body Language

Social Studies (Deluxe Edition)   3.5/5

  Brooklyn's Body Language find a sweet spot between spacey funk and dancefloor grooves. Social Studies (Deluxe Edition) gives a variety of soul-flavored electro-pop that ranges from the disco synth of "Falling Out" to bouncy, playful pop of title track "Social Studies."

   Filled with African percussion, slick synth, dub reverb and boy/girl harmonies, Social Studies is instantly catchy offering enough variety to keep  your attention with the dancehall groove of "Seeds of Sight," a contrast to the pulsing synth on the slow building crescendo of "Running."
  Even in the contrasting sounds Body Language manages to find similarities sewing together a record of 8 distinct tracks that make for a fun study of colourful dance-oriented jams that have living room dance party written all over them.


Essential Tracks: "Seeds of Sight" "We Got Enough" and "Falling Out"
