On December 18, Hot Chip and Friends will go “Straight To The Morning” with one long B2B DJ set in support of Crisis, the national charity for people who are homeless. The stream will begin at 3pm ET / 8pm GMT and go straight to the early hours - it can be watched from anywhere in the world but is a one-time event.
The line-up for Hot Chip and Friends is Hot Chip, Jarvis Cocker, Dillion Francis, Superorganism, Kero Kero Bonito, LA Priest, Django Django, Para One, Lou Hayter, Mighty Mouse and MYD.
All ticket proceeds will go to Crisis. Buy tickets here.
Hot Chip on the event: “We’re glad to be able to support the essential work that Crisis is doing to support people who are homeless at this time of year when so many factors combine to make life extremely difficult for people on the streets or in temporary accommodation. Thank you to Crisis and to you for your donations.”
Dillion Francis also recently shared his remix of “Straight To The Morning” – stream here.
Praise for “Straight To The Morning”:
"As its name implies, the track is guaranteed to spark an all-night living room dance party."
- Consequence of Sound
"Over the kind of euphoric dance-pop build Hot Chip were wielding on A Bath Full Of Ecstasy, Alexis Taylor and Cocker both sing paeans for going out to clubs all night long...yet another in this year’s long lineage of music that conjures up nightlife and makes it this wistful echo of normal life." - Stereogum
"...an exuberant, dance-around-the-room house raver, with lush atmospherics, and totally massive, soul-rousing choruses." - BlackBook
"It’s two great sounds that sound great together...caffeinated strut leans toward the pop-tastic..."
- FLOOD Magazine
"four-on-the-floor banger that combines electro-disco with sexy whispering." - Brooklyn Vegan
“This was Cocker’s last music session just before lockdown was enacted, making it a fitting sendoff to the carefree days of packed, sweaty dance clubs and uninhibited nights out. At the very least, spinning this kaleidoscopic bop will bring back some of that feeling as well as give us something to look forward to.” - AV Club
