I guess what\u2019s first planted in our minds we first took a look at the title of The Ting Tings<\/a><\/strong> new release was the possibility of it being a cover of R\u00f6yksopp and Robyn\u2019s<\/strong> recent electro magnificent tuneage \u201cDo It Again<\/a><\/strong>\u201d. HALT stop that train of thought in it\u2019s tracks, it is infact nothing to do with R\u00f6yksopp and Robyn\u2019s<\/strong> mind-blowing electronic masterpiece \u201cDo It Again<\/a><\/strong>\u201d, it is simply down to pure coincidence that within the space of a few months two separate pop outfits have chosen to release singles of the same name.<\/p>\n

Let us get our ding dings over it and review it forthwith!<\/p>\n

As diverse pop duo The Ting Tings<\/a><\/strong> may have taken us for a disco spin to the \u201cWrong Club<\/a><\/strong>\u201d on the way to the release of forthcoming new album \u201cSuper Critical<\/strong>\u201d, yet it seems that they can\u2019t shake the blissed out, sunkissed disco funk sound out of their hair just yet, as here they come to follow up upon the Studio 54<\/strong> reminiscent retro fusion that presented itself on \u201cWrong Club<\/a><\/strong>\u201d with a Balearic sunset assisted sound structure basking in chilled-out white isle, sun-down euphoria of a second single \u201cDo It Again<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n

It is mellowed out in its sound in comparison to its disco-hued partner in \u201cWrong Club<\/a><\/strong>\u201d but when the riff running through \u201cDo It Again<\/strong>\u201d takes hold it is actually quite slap funk Kool And The Gang<\/strong> “Get Down On It<\/a><\/strong>” intoxicating, if truth be told.<\/p>\n

So yes it seems The Ting Tings<\/a><\/strong> really are going about nailing down a full nostalgia trip of disco origins on the upcoming album \u201cSuper Critical<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n
