À propos de cet audio
Last week on Encore - the CanConCore special edition - we focused on an absolutely absurd teeny-bopper anthem from the year 2000 - and a real crown jewel of obscure Canadian Pop Music - B4-4’s ‘Get Down’.
While it was a wild and wacky song (and video) in its own right - nobody would be rushing to defend it as ‘groundbreaking’ - the three super-tanned members of the group were very clearly chasing the sound of the boyband craze of the late 90s in to early 2000s that was just about to reach its peak.
This week, we’re pulling a full 180 to talk about a song that upon its release in 1997, sounded nothing like anything on the radio waves in that era of music - and quite frankly, still sounds nothing like anything but… itself.
While both super weird in hindsight - there couldn’t be anything more diametrically opposed to the sound of Get Down than this week’s hit: Bran Van 3000’s Drinking in LA.
