He Is Noxious

In brief: I Am Noxious is Calvin Harris meets LCD Soundsystem, with a leaning more towards the latter than the former.

Boy singing over dance beats. A nineties influence in the production and an Alexis Taylor hint to the vocals. Lovely and uplifting but at the same time spooky and introspective.

I Am Noxious is also completely amazing and we are slightly bowled over by the quality of the songs on his MySpace page. Each track is a miniature masterpiece and when we've posted this we're going straight back to have another listen.

In order of preference for the current I Am Noxious songs currently 'out there' our feelings are thus:

1. 'Caught In The Snow (In The Summer)' (starts slow and small and turns into something much bigger. A tiny little epic. Sounds, in places, like Erasure)
2. 'Left & Right' (the nineties one)
3. 'We Pray' (cowbells and what sounds like Pointer Sisters' 'Jump' sample but actually isn't)

So to recap on I Am Noxious:

Boy.
Amazing.

Pfft, it's a doddle this blogging lark, innit?
