#1901 Tiga - Ciao!

Does this ever want to be DFA/LCD (James Murphy shows up to help!), packed with disco bass, fizzy synth progressions, moaning boys, and cooing girls. Plus plenty of artificial sweetener cool, with lots of sexy/stylish/quirky/cool mantras. Air quotes.

There's some hot synth buzz, especially the blown-out What You Need, but this's a good reminder of how fragile cool is, and how important it was to the best DFA bands' success: Tiga got the synths but can't pull off the sound, got the outfit but can't pull off the look 3/5
