Drawing upon disco, funk, R&B, Latin, soul, and rock to craft their sultry grooves, the EP features five reworked versions of songs found on their debut, which Pitchdork described as "...buzzing, burbling four-on-the-floor dance floor fillers...a resounding success."
Dan Koplowitz, owner of Friendly Fire Recordings, had this to say about the Live at Lime session: "We were thrilled by the opportunity to work with the folks at LimeWire to create this live EP for the Phenomenal Handclap Band, and delighted by how the music came out. The Phenomenal Handclap Band's songs really shine in the live setting and we feel this session captured their amazing live show brilliantly."
"Ever since Phenomenal Handclap Band played our SXSW party this year, we've been mildly obsessed with them, so we invited them to do a Live at Lime session. Producing something special with a talented and rising band like PHB is a big part of what Live at Lime is all about, really. Our love affair with the band isn't over yet, though � we've asked them to DJ our official CMJ party this month [along with Jon Spencer and Margaret Cho]," added Tom Monday, LimeWire Store's Director of Partner Relations.
