|Digitalism - Pogo|

Digitalism was one of the first bands to get me into the whole electro indie feel. Please dont kill me if i get those genres mixed up. Pogo is the perfect up beat song for a run or just going nuts at home.

haha. nuts.

|Lovage - Sex (I’m a)|

Lovage was a one time “band” collaboration by Dan the Automator whom you may know better from Handsome boy Modeling School. The whole album is super sexy and noir.

||Sneaker Pimps - Six Underground||

I am sure you have heard this song at least once or twice. And I would not be surprised if this song has left some type of visual impression in your brain. This song seems to be the perfect soundtrack to gritty slow moving city life or some devlish night out.

Either way, it is an essential boner jam aka music to sex to.

Jim Noir - All Right

I got to see this guy when i went to see Midnight Juggernauts in Hollywood. His music has this great classy love boat disco porn vibe to it. I’m serious. Great music and super fun!

||New Order - Ceremony|

Probably best known for their song Blue Monday, which was later covered by Orgy, New Order has some pretty stellar albums that are great once you scoot the shadow of their singles out of the way. If you get a chance, check out their entire albums!

Estelle - Pretty Please (feat Cee-Lo)

You probably know Estelle her hot single ‘American Boy’ but did you ever get a chance to listen to her album? Well…you should! With help from Cee-Lo, this song is a perfect blend of contemporary pop and mid century soul.

||The GO! Team - The Power Is on||

This is one of those bands you just wish would put out a new album already. Their latest album, Proof of Youth, was released back in 2007 but the music easily stays current. It is a mix of cheerleader like vibes with happy beats. Just listen, and you will understand.

Also, if you get a chance, check out their music videos on youtube! They are pretty cool!

||B-52’s - Funplex||

This was off of the B-52’s latest album and what I loved about it was that they stayed true to the sound that made them so famous in the first place. Silly lyrics and a tiki surf kind of vibe. I will never get tired of their Fred Schneider’s voice or the “go-go” beat drumming.

April 08, 2008. That is when I first listened to this song and instantly hooked. Take a listen, you will not be disappointed, I promise!

||Morrissey - Irish Blood, English Heart||

When I have children in their teens, The only two bands I will enforce upon them will be Morrissey/The Smiths and The Cure. These are the only two bands that are still cool to listen to when their retarded teen hearts are going through anguish.

I’ve had the first few lines of this song as my Facebook quote since I first started using Facebook about 1300 years ago. I don’t know if that means a lot.

The lines quoted are:

Irish blood, English heart
This I’m made of
There is no one on earth I’m afraid of
And no regime can buy or sell me

#Nowplaying

||ELO - Mr. Blue Sky||

Song #2 from an old mixtape.

First heard this song about 5-6 years ago in college. It was probably one of of the happiest songs I heard. How can you listen to it and not feel decent? And since it is once again raining again in our sunny southern CA, I feel it right for today.

It may even sound familiar, as I have heard it in several commercials/movies.

||Robots in Disguise - Turn It Up ||

I’m going to spend the next 20 days playing songs from a mixtape that I liked a lot. So for the whole 1.4 of you that visit this - yes you - stay tuned! I also want to try and provide a bit more content on the songs, like how I came about them.

I first heard this song when Myspace was still the hot shit. It was on a friends profile and just made me feel like I was watching some coked out blonde Hollywood chick wasted on the ground of a strip joint with strobe lights flashing. I think I’m normal.
