Berg has no Nipples?

 

When I started this post about Berg Sans Nipple’s new 7" Hero Heroin, which dropped this month on Chocolate Industries, my nipples got hard and I lost my focus. (Sorry, you know I had to make a nipple joke. It is hot though.)

These Nipplites are a duo hailing from Paris and Nebraska (I’ve noted the cultural fermentation of Omaha on this blog before) with a sound as inclusive as the distance between their two homelands.

Cop the single in person at the Turntable Lab shop, or go online and get it at Juno. If you want to see them, they’re on a US tour right now that includes the TO, Boston, and Dirty City, but not New York. (WTF?) Also, their recent album Along the Quai, released on Team Love, can be streamed here (but be patient, the audio controls will take a second to show up.)

Nipple.

The "Hero" single is best played fast, otherwise, it seems to drag. (This sample is sped up.) It starts off with some waring bells and an eerie flute sample, leaving a sense of nervous expectation. Next, it adds some long bass lines, triangles, and steel drums, which water down the anxiety and replace it with a sense of imaginative exploration. Then the hook crashes into the room like the discovery of great idea with some distorted vocal samples and additional melodic bells.
