The Kills

The Kills - “Cheap and Cheerful” (YouTube)
Omg, who is else totally psyched for the new Kills album?? It might be one of the most anticipated album on 2008 — I’m not sure if I’m more excited about hearing XXXchange’s production or new songs from The Kills.
URA Fever

Purple Crush

Purple Crush & Probe dms - “Beef With Me” (YouTube)
Purple Crush and Probe dms recently redid Britney’s “Piece Of Me” — the video is like a classic YouTube photo homage.
To quote Mrs. Crush herself, Isla wrote: “This is maybe the most self-indulgent thing we’ve ever made, and now that it’s done, I feel like [...]

Cool Kids Can’t Die

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

And cool kids belong together and all that. Cool Kids Can’t Die come to us from Italy and have a bunch of reeeeemixes for your grabby hands.
Ever since we played host to that Yelle remix contest, it seems like “Ce Jeu” remixes are popping out of the woodwork on MySpace, your Mom’s blog, etc — [...]

Freezepop

Sunday, January 20th, 2008

Their new album has already hit the shelves, if you are into synthpop, electropop, new wave goodness I suggest you check it out. I was a huge fan when their first album came out and every album seems to be more and more produced, but I don’t see that as something negative.

Lesbians On Ecstasy - “Sisters in the Struggle” (mp3)

Gonzales

Friday, January 18th, 2008

Gonzales is back from a long hiatus to drop his new album ‘Soft Power‘ on Mercury Records. For those not familiar, Gonzales produced both of Feist’s albums and has been a long time producer/collaborator with Peaches. He also seems to have Teki Latex doing his digital PR (he’s the one that sent me the [...]

Ebony Bones

Friday, January 18th, 2008

If press releases are to be believed — then Ebony Bones has been blowing it up in the UK, or London at least. And it won’t be long before she’ll own the world. Take the outer space elements of Kelis and the ferocity of Spektrum and the slickness of Grace Jones, well, then you might [...]

Operator Please + G.L.O.V.E.S.

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

Operator Please + G.L.O.V.E.S. = L.O.V.E.
Yama from Damn Arms works his magic all over “Get What You Want” and makes the track up into a total electro anthem. Sounds a bit like if Karen O fronted Damn Arms… you get the drift.

Operator Please - “Get What You Want” (G.L.O.V.E.S. Remix) (mp3)
Ah shit, [...]

Mixtape Sunday

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

Ready for another mixtape sunday/Tuesday? Everything in music tends to get slow around the holidays either due to lack of material or pure sloth. But now that the craziness is over, let’s start this party with a bang…..
The Lillis Brothers are two guys from Athens, Greece who may be physically far from most of [...]
