Salomon Faye and Enasni Leber may indeed be "front line for the blow-up" with this new video for "Fool's Gold," straight from an art/performance space in Bushwick. Chopped organs and a high-pitched soul sample are reminiscent of producers past, but the song as a whole has a forward-leaning, joyful vibe to it that has been underrepresented by other revivalists. Despite heavier topics put forth in the verses themselves, the chorus and the atmosphere of the video are clearly just about having a good time. Perhaps soul samples just needed a fun, party song à la "Slow Jamz" to bring them back to life.
