KILLER KUTS #14
Do a Google search on these dudes, its a mile long. I have been on a huge Rinder & Lewis binge lately. Can't get enough of them. They wrote some of the greatest disco songs of the time. Plus, all of their records have a similar cover scheme... Extremely prolific, they recorded under many names: El Coco, Le Pamplemousse, Sweet Potato Pie, Tuxedo Junction, Saint Tropez, In Search Of Orchestra (They wrote for the TV show 'In Search Of')... There was a single from this album (Envy/Lust), but this record deserves to be recognized as a whole. Their sound is smooth and mature, and complicated without seeming so. Their sense of melody was brilliant, and it evokes emotion, something that was missing from most dance music of the day. Although these dudes were from LA, their music is very European, and Italo djs tend to sweat them a lot. Their sound is very "Italo", or "cosmic", or whatever you want to call it. But the music definitely speaks for itself,
