GusGus – “Thin Ice”
Finalllly a video for one of my favorite (underrated?) releases of 2009, GusGus’ “Thin Ice.” If 24/7 managed to slip past your radar then run over to iTunes and pick it uppp.

Jump Jump Dance Dance’s “Show Me The Night” is more catchy than h1n1… we’ve already been treated to a Grum remix and a trippy video. LA kids Human Life are the latest to catch the fever and have turned out their own remix of the track. They continue on a theme: so easy to love [...]

BigStereo favorites Crayon Fields are coming to the States, and I couldn’t be more excited. They were on the top of my list for best album last year with ‘All the Pleasures of the World’. Go see them play and get ready to be romanticized.

Ssion – “Clown”
There is one band I love above the rest… Ssion, I love you. “Clown” just saved my life.

I love She & Him. Their individual tracks are simply adorable and the duo’s debut full-length – Volume One – tied them all together ever so nicely. Heck, the album dropped nearly two years ago, yet “Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?” is still prominently featured in my rotation of uplifting ditties. All this [...]

Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Primary 1 & Nina Persson of the Cardigans create magic. Current fav:

Primary 1 featuring Nina Persson – “The Blues”

Body Language’s remix of “Demons” from Yes Giantess sounds like the original played under a highway, where the noise get weaved into the music and become a part of the rhythm. Worn out cassette tapes playing back big pop tracks, not quite chillwave but not quite club — a beautiful healthy mix:

We Have Band – “Divisive”
We Have Band Has New Video. Must be the most patient band ever — from their face paint video to “Divisive”, with its many poses.
Their debut cd is finally right around the corner… due out April 5th. Yay.
Produced by SoLab. Post produced by BackUp

4 Years? I can’t believe it. Come watch us make fools of ourselves.

I DON’T KNOW WHO YOU ARE, OK?!!!!

Penguin Prison is the latest artist to gain support from tastecreator Neon Gold, and given their track record, I’d say you should place your weekly allowance money on this guy. We mentioned Penguin Prison briefly before, mostly to make fun of his name, but the pure strength of his songs is what is propelling this [...]

A favourite Sydney DJ and party farter Spruce Lee did a EP under the alias Toni Toni Lee for the now ruling Sydney club Good God. Each track is solid to the max… Delightful.

Ali Love – “Love Harder”
Two new Ali Love goodies for you today –
1) Ali Love’s video for “Love Harder” which was directed by none other than Trevor Jackson. Seems to illustrate meeting that special someone at the club, a hot and steamy cab ride and of course, the moments after.
2) A wonderful remix from Prins [...]

Late Of The Pier – “Best In The Class”
It’s new Late Of The Pier… dizzying. Make sure to watch it to the end because things get crazy after the old lady. The single will be out on March 1st from Phantasy Sound.

Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs – “Roundhouse BlackBox Sessions”
Recorded and streamed live from The Roundhouse in Camden, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs delivers a pretty wonderful and special performance. This is a must watch… a bit reminisce of Ducks.

Yes Giantess latest “Ruins” is officially the first track Starsmith has ever produced for anyone other than Ellie Goulding. So as you can expect… big pop gestures in this track. So irresistible. Reminds me a bit of the male counter version to Shannon’s “Let The Music Play” — ha!

Silver Columns has been revealed. There was a bit of “mystery” as to who they are and now we can say for sure that they are Adem and Johnny Lynch aka the Pictish Trail. I think everybody kinda “knew” that, but thank god the cat is out of the bag so people can stop focusing [...]

Kasper Bjørke featuring Tomas Höffding – “Efficient Machine”
Kasper Bjørke is back in full force today with a new video and a new album. “Efficient Machine” features vocals from Tomas Höffding of WhoMadeWho, and it’s video… well it’s video is a must watch for every lonely boy who has ever tried to create a robot double. [...]

Another day, some more CFCF magic — this time an icey take on Kingdom’s “Mindreader” that sounds more like CFCF’s take on late 90’s R&B than late 90’s dance. Not as icy or dark as we’ve heard CFCF but definitely some signatures in this one:
