Psapp – The Only Thing I Ever Wanted (Domino)

“Songs with little noises poking out” is how Psapp (the “p” is silent, as in water) describe themselves, and while this may seem unhelpful, it's surprisingly accurate. German Carim Clasmann and adoptive Londoner Galia Durant choose their Domino debut to focus more closely on their quirkily wonderful take on left-handed glitchpop. The effect pitches them somewhere in the Bermuda triangle between CocoRosie, Pram and Four Tet: intricate, warm electro ballads played on Lego instruments. More bands should sound like this.
