Grade: A
“Short and sweet” can sum up Body Language’s second album. Brooklyn DJs Grant Wheeler and Matthew Young emerged from their basement for the eight-song EP, “Social Studies,” and added breathy-voiced Anjelica Bess and drummer Ian Chang to the equation. While the purpose of each song is clearly to make listeners shake a leg, each track has a distinctive feel. The opening track “You Can” has a Passion Pit vibe, but is followed by “Falling Out,” in which hand-clapping disco beats are compelling enough to make listeners want to do the hustle. The arcade game sounds of the title track are as exciting as a pinball machine, as is the harmonic blending of the group’s dynamic voices. The ever-changing sounds ensure that both dance enthusiasts  and those with short attention spans will enjoy the bouncing beats.
