The Allergies are a breath of fresh air, especially for someone like me who grew up in the era of 90’s hip hop sampling, now considered vintage music. These guys are a great throwback to that era. Each track is layered, and upbeat, with a ton of depth and variety. It's great! I'll be spinning this for a while.
Artist statement,
“We like breaks, funky basslines, horns, and dance or grooves. We’re inspired by the golden eras of funk, soul, disco and hip-hop, and we try and cram that into three and a half minutes”.
About them,
Since forming in 2012 The Allergies have made it their mission to reshape funky vintage sounds for the modern dance. Both skilled turntablists in their own right and known for their 45-only vinyl sets, the duo of DJ Moneyshot & Rackabeat first bonded over their love of classic hip-hop and beats, then decided to pool their knowledge and skills into making their music.
