Chromeo Release Cheeky EP for the Pandemic Era, Quarantine Casanova: Stream
The post Chromeo Release Cheeky EP for the Pandemic Era, Quarantine Casanova: Stream appeared first on Consequence of Sound.
Chromeo have just delivered the funkiest release of the coronavirus era so far. Stream the cheeky 10-track Quarantine Casanova EP below.
The collection began somewhat haphazardly during the early days of the pandemic lockdown. Chromeo’s Dave 1 and P-Thugg kicked off quarantine by freestyling a song called “Clorox Wipe”, simply to bring some playfulness to folks who were suddenly thrust into such uncertainty. The response was overwhelmingly positive, with fans begging for more. Chromeo obliged, and eventually the Quarantine Casanova EP was born.
Tracks take on love in the time of social distancing (“6 Feet Away”), embrace ennui (“Stay in Bed (And Do Nothing)”), and namedrop Dr. Anthony Fauci (“‘Roni Got Me Stressed Out”). There are five new songs in total, coupled with the instrumentals for each one.
Proceeds from sales on Bandcamp are being donated to Colin Kaepernick’s Know Your Rights Camp COVID-19 Relief Fund, which seeks to help the Black and Brown communities that have been most vulnerable to COVID-19. Chromeo are also selling a T-shirt and poster featuring the Quarantine Casanova album art to benefit Kaep’s charity.
