I love being right. It doesn't happen all that often, so I have to
make the best of it.
What's he babbling about, I hear you cry. When I first heard
Fluffy the Pitbull, my immediate reaction was Klezmer. The
track was
Rat
Race. And something about the tempo and the instrumental
backing and maybe even the vocal reminded me of Jewish music. So when
I did a quick search on the artist, whose name is actually Nicole
Chaplain-Pearman, and read her claim to be (and I quote) "a total
klezmaniac", I felt even smarter than I usually do. (I'm sorry
you had to see that.)
Anyway, Fluffy has a sound all her own. In fact, I was
surprised to discover that she's a she; hers is not what I would call
a feminine voice. But the combination of Fluffy's vocals,
instrumentation and witty and iconoclastic lyrics puts Gabardine
Swine a cut above the usual iTMS offerings.
