Here’s your visual reminder by Rollo Jackson to listen to Hot Chip’s new album In Our Heads once again. And, to also check out their live drummer Sarah Jones who has drummed for New Young Pony Club and Bat For Lashes. Hot Chip are also responsible for the intro music for the Olympics table tennis competition (how fittingly nerdy) just as the Chemical Brothers are responsible for the velodrome music. They play Electric Picnic and are joined by this lot.
