Doing It Again
Holy Ghost! - Holy Ghost! [DFA2267 2LP USA 2011 24-Bit 176.4kHz FLAC] Alex Frankel & Nick Millhiser came from Brooklyn, New York - they liked disco, old-school hip-hop, funk and eighties British synthpop - they wanted to make a record. Holy Ghost!'s first single, Hold On , came out in 2007 when downloads were peaking, when vinyl was at its lowest ebb, cds were becoming unlistenable and nobody had the idea or the bandwidth to stream. Their mate, James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem) had his own record label, DFA Records, it seemed right that Holy Ghost! went with DFA Records. It was few years before the duo released their self-titled debut album, think Cowley & Moroder meet Dan Hartman, with a bit of Prince & Chic thrown in, add a drop of Afrika Bambaataa and then oodles of the poppier side of New Order, and you get Holy Ghost!
