No hiding the fact that we are quite adoring of this one – a limited 7 inch single outing from Chicago based Uncle and Nephew duo Casimer & Casimir. Out via the Brille imprint ‘O Sweet Joe Pye’ is quite frankly the most acutely affectionate pop nugget we’ve heard in a fair old while, opens to a would be statically charged monochrome tuning of classic era Motown motifs before falling headlong into a bracing sun popping shimmer that’s desirably dinked and demurred by the kind of pristinely perky pop infectiousness that imagines the hand craft of Van Dyke Parks being brought to bear and blossom upon a studio meeting of Ben Folds 5 and the Heartstrings types. Utterly gorgeous.
