EQTV: Watch “Chinese New Year’s Love” by Hatchets

By Mandy Rogers

Music from the Latin quarters doesn’t have to be all maracas and Spanish guitars, or even hip swaying electro pop (although we are rather fond of it). The Brazilian’s in particular do have a flair for rolling out gritty and angular new-disco wave indietronica as fashioned most prominently by those Cansei De Ser Sexy types of CSS.

Treading in their footsteps and winning a crowd around their augmented rocktronic synth dappled sound, step into the light – Hatchets, who bring forth “Chinese New Year’s Love”.

With a splash of vintage Passion Pit verve and a tropical swerve of glo-fi flicker, Hatchets deliver a chrome capped disco rocktail that see’s us shaken and stirred with awakened curious interest.
