Description

Since their inception in the student bedrooms of Alexis Taylor and Joe Taylor in 1995, Hot Chip have remained at the cutting edge of alternative dance. Since then they’ve picked up several awards as well as nominations from the Grammys and the Mercury Prize

In this episode, we go track by track with long time band member Owen Clarke through the development and emotions of their most recent work, Freakout/Release.

In the shadow of the pandemic, we find the group at their most introspective, and possibly their most inspired.
