Xmas Advent [December 12th] :: Fujiya & Miyagi

-
David Best of Fujiya & Miyagi recommends… “Who’s Gonna Save My Soul” by Gnarls Barkley

“I’ve chosen this song from their LP The Odd Couple because it’s the nearest thing to ’60s soul I’ve heard without it sounding retro or being a pastiche of other songs. The combination of a great song, great vocals and great production is pretty rare but this song manages to achieve that. The whole record is also great, which doesn’t happen very often. I like all of their stuff and I could have easily chosen a handful of others on that record alone, but I think this tune is the one I’ll be listening to until I kick the bucket.”

Fujiya & Miyagi are a Krautrock-obsessed four-piece from Brighton. Their third album, Lightbulbs, is out now on Full Time Hobby.
