Tiger & Woods appear to do something simple. Take the best parts of disco songs and string them together.
It's not uncommon or ground-breaking. But they are the only ones who do it that I love.
They do it with such confidence, finesse, subtlety, love, and joy. It's completely unapologetic. It's defiant in its commitment to the sound, looping over and over, building tension. The respect for the samples is palpable.
The only other example I can think of that has such unwavering commitment to the very sound they are creating, that celebrates that sound in unwavering simplicity, that rejoices in the tension it creates, that sounds so familiar yet so fresh, is Daft Punk's Homework.
