Back when Australians Cut Copy were riding a high between In Ghost Colours and Zonoscope, their countrymen Mitzi were just getting started. The Brisbane four-piece (or, 4/4-piece, if you will) traffic in more restrained rubbery basslines and piano-fortified exclamations, ending up with a style that sounds closer to Cut Copy’s one-time tourmates Holy Ghost! On "All I Heard", off their forthcoming debut LP Truly Alive, Mitzi draws simply and unabashedly from disco's sunnier side. With brief exhalations for verses, toe-tapping guitars, and synths sparkling intermittently in the background, "All I Heard" strives for that blissful feeling of mindlessness above all else.
