I’ve been meaning to post this one for ages from our homies in Sugar and Gold but I was holding out til now as they’ve just put out their debut record “Creme” on Antenna Farm records, are kicking off a tour with Gravy Train!!!! S+G make 100% disco-pop in the vein of Escort and Chic. We played a house party with them in the lower Haight last year and people were rubbing up against each other violently, in a sex way. So without further ado here is the new theme song to The Workout blog courtesy of Sugar and Gold and entitled “Workout”!

Speaking of homies, here’s some awesome new spaced out magic from another San FranDisco operator called Sorcerer. I’m loving the slow BPMs these days so this is right up my alley.
