Homelife - ‘Too Fast’ (Ninja Tune)


From the quite excellent Flying Wonders album of last year comes Homelife’s latest single Too Fast.

Homelife are a curiously eccentric outfit at the best of times, and Too Fast successfully manages to confirm this beyond any reasonable doubt. The fine line between genius and madness is more successfully navigated by Homelife than most.

Too Fast starts off like the soundtrack to one of Reeves and Mortimer’s more off-the-wall sketches before the haunting female vocals kick in and transport you to the very centre of that same Reeves and Mortimer sketch upon which Mr Reeves slaps you squarely across the jaw with a vastly oversized halibut.

Wonderful.
