...love, if you subscribe to The Beatles' time-honoured testament. Bobby Thorpe and Psychederek, 21st Century realists and therefore much more pragmatic, assert that all you need is a little emotion.
In fact, so sure of this are they that they've collaborated on a new 4-track EP of the same name, with the title track (actually song 2) as a preview. It's a cheery, chuggy number built around that sampled refrain and the promise of the spring and summer to come.
The EP is available on 12" vinyl and digital and not out in full until April, but you can pre-order and download A Little Emotion now.
This is the first I've heard of Bobby Thorpe, which is my loss as I've discovered that he released the equally wonderful Salford Balearic, last July, self-described as a "100BPM summer chugger". Bobby's not wrong, it's a beauty.
With Bandcamp Friday arriving imminently, you should seriously consider adding this to your shopping cart. I have.
Psychederek aka Lewis Olsen is like an old friend to this blog, always welcome. As a reminder, here are a couple of songs, a wonderful cover (with full band) of 808 State's Pacific State and Screamadereka from 2021, the one that got me hooked in the first place. This and lots more to enjoy - and buy - on their Bandcamp site.
