    From 80s soul to NYC rap to no wave and beyond. Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs delivers a selection of all-time faves.

    Sign o' the times - Orlando Higginbottom - better known by his stage name _(artist-name)Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs_ - claims to have not listened to an album in its entirety since he was 18. But then again, why bother hanging on to just one thing, when there’s so much more to discover? Embracing the clash of a short attention span with a general curiosity for various musical stylings, the son of a music professor has produced some of the most colourful and exciting dance music of late. With a knack for extravagant aigrettes, humungous pop melodies and house grooves, T.E.E.D. has convinced tastemakers like _(artist-name)Annie Mac_ or _(artist-name)Damon Albarn_, as well as the even more critical heads of the Tumblr-sphere. After several 12" and EP releases on Greco-Roman, T.E.E.D. has signed with Polydor for his debut album _(album-title)Trouble_. And although he might not even do so himself, we strongly suggest you’d give it a proper spin and your full attention. Do believe the hype!
