Pnau, "Into the Sky"
The new Pnau album, Changa, dropped early this morning, and I have to admit I'm a little disappointed. It uses a lot of female soul vocalists, and I was hoping that Pnau member Nick Littlemore would sing on every track, because I love his voice, even though it's not for everyone. His throat-shredding shouts on Groove Armada's "Warsaw" (2009) and his euphoric squeals on Pnau's "Unite Us" (2011) are some of my favorite male vocals of the past decade. Although Pnau's also done some great stuff with other male vocalists, like on their amazing Elton John remix/mash-up album, Good Morning to the Night (2012).
"Into the Sky" isn't quite up to those levels, but it is damn catchy, with a great beat and some interesting instrumental textures.
