New York trio CCC (pronounced see-see-see) are wonderfully of the twenty-first century; they shift between being a live band, a remix outfit, a dj troupe and working in print media, having also released a series of books, the latest of which 'On Acid' is currently part of MoMA's print archive. The boundaries that would normally demarcate how a group operate and even what a group 'is' are blended in a strange fuzz of electronic beats, analogue warmth and deep house grooves.
Their new 12" 'Sonic Underground' is a series of remixes that sits
somewhere between minimal house and sunrise-on-a-beach euphoria.
CCC's version of Mack Wintson's 'One You Want' subjugates a
pounding 4/4 beat with acoustic strums, which in the bands own
words, is in order to "to find a way to reflect the beauty of human
body in a space beyond the confines of the dancefloor."
