the E.L.F - “Bounce Bounce Bounce”
The E.L.F. has a new single and video made on a $0 budget.. how bout that? The video is what is is but the song itself is pretty fun and catchy. The song is available exclusively on iTunes so jump over there and pick it up.

Pomomofo + Toxic Avenger

Friday, August 29th, 2008

Sydney’s Pomomofo is set to release their EP In Super VGA — the first single being “Island” with a remix be Toxic Avenger and video by Beaufort. This remix is pretty typical Toxxie… like makes you feel like your eardrums are being rubbed together. Typical in this case is good:

NightWaves

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Point your attention to NightWaves, part of the LA collective that is calling themselves Binary. They’re promising to bring “the romance back to LA. A little bit less banger, a bit more 80’s, and a lot of great synth work.” Sounds good to me. There is a Valerie-ish aspect to their music that they’re interestingly [...]

The Twelves

Monday, August 25th, 2008

The Twelves are back with a new mixtape — including some of their new official remixes for Zeigeist and The Virgins. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve headed over to The Twelves’ MySpace to listen to their remix of “Humanitarianism.” Like at least a million. The mix also includes some of their home [...]

SMALL

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Kinda in love with SMALL. “Comic Girl” kinda reaches the same pop great heights as perhaps Van She’s “Kelly”… like you wanna put this on, open all your windows and scream along. Shitty bit rate but it gives you a decent idea of the epic potentials of this song:

SMALL - “Comic Girl”
I’m also digging this [...]

OCD Automatic

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

“I Wanna Dance With Somebody” always makes me wanna get super gay and take off my shirt and dance with my hands in the air. It’s a weakness. OCD Automatic exploits this weakness. When I hear this played out I’m gonna embarrass myself sober.

Whitney Houston - “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” (OCD Automatic remix)

Naughty Nites

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

Naughty Nites is three bad ass guys from Denmark who are also members of bands Kiss Kiss Kiss and I Am Elektronik. The vocals on these two tracks are a bit of a distraction from the instrumental… the beginning of “Bad Boy” is kinda solid but there’s an awkwardness with the rest that doesn’t totally [...]

WOW

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

WOW!! I’ve been totally in love with everything WOW has been doing ever since their first songs started popping up on their MySpace — “Icy Cold” is no exception. The track kinda feels like the middle ground between the Presets and Muscles… but infused with some much needed rock and roll that’s been missing in [...]

Boy + Girl

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I’ve got a little crush on the stuff Boy + Girl are doing. If you haven’t heard of the Melbourne duo, you will soon enough.
Geek Chic Soundsystem’s remix of “Shirly Temple”:

Boy + Girl – “Shirley Temple” (Geek Chic Soundsystem remix)
Boy + Girl’s remix of Melbourne’s Young Lovers:

Ssion

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Ssion - “A Wolves Eye”
The only thing more exciting than new Ssion music is new Ssion videos — “A Wolves Eye” is the centerpiece of Ssion’s unique vision. Ritualistic synchronized dancing around a bon fire, wolf men, hellish imagery, and, um, is that a woman in a hood eating smores? It’s awkward, funny, somewhat stylish [...]
