still listening

new dawn, new day, new PLAYLIST!

so, what's in the new car CD and at-home-preferred playlist? Well, a quick impulse buy of an iTunes $20 voucher got me a backlog of dance-pop (guetta/cudi, duck sauce, MSTRKRT/Chromeo and Glee Safety Dance), mixed in with some gifts from friends (Black Cab, Jezebels) and some of my trusty epic electronica and postrock. Which I Love.

I reckon that MSTRKRFT Chromeo remix is awesome enough to get me tracking down some more remixes by them, and even the whole of the remixed Chromeo Fancy Footwork (entitled Fancier Footwork, ahhh, those smoothies).

Weird Crush shout-out here to P-Thugg from Chromeo, actually. Is it his reminiscence of Turtle in Entourage maybe, because Jerry Ferrara did register with me (a cute, cuddly twenty-something who can fulfill your needs? sweet.)

interview with P-Thugg on Some Kind of Awesome

and for just plain excellent new pop - Two Door Cinema Club's What You Know and Pigeon John's The Bomb.

All. Good.
