CMU Approved

Approved: Rootbeer (SNAP Of The Day)

By | Published on Monday 9 March 2009

Solo artists Pigeon John and Flynn Adam (who had success as a producer for Black Eyed Peas and Madlib) hook up for this new project, Rootbeer.

Claiming MGMT, A Tribe Called Quest and N.E.R.D as influences, it’s the latter than smacks the most truth, with tribal percussion and squirming synth loops underlying the pair’s vocals.

Admittedly, they haven’t yet created anything quite catchy enough to match the work of Pharrell and co, but they’re certainly heading in the right direction.
