Sharlene Chiu’s FASHION + music pick: “What About Us” by Handsome Furs
Start your weekend off steamy by checking out the new video by sexy Canadian electro-pop couple Handsome Furs (Dan Boeckner and Alexei Perry). “What About Us” is the first single off their new album Sound Kapital, released by Sub Pop. I actually just flew back home from Lisbon, where I was shooting the next Sharlene Vs. episode. There, I got to guest on Radar FM (Portugal’s alternative radio station) with DJ Pedro Ramos, and picked “What About Us” as my Canadian request. It was a super-rad experience, and as I’m catching up on my music news in a jet-lagged haze, I’m stoked that there’s a video for the track now. Yes, the video is absolutely NSFW, as it drips with intense passion and sex, and I can’t help but feel compelled to throw on a pair of heels and hit a sweaty dance floor. Sound Kapital is the first Handsome Furs album written exclusively for keyboards, and the strong catchy beats burn brightly throughout the album. Get ready to be turned on.
