Grand Popo Football Club - Men Are Not Nice Guys
/ on “Men are Not Nice Guys” Single (2002)
/ itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Was hoping to post “Shadow Stabbing a Shadow” but it is hard to source, will have to wait until I pop for “Venom in the Grass” LP (2010).

Jupiter - Vox Populi (Lifelike Treatment)
/ on “Vox Populi” EP (2010)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Have posted Jupiter before, but probably one of the few remixes I’ll ever post. Also Jupiter suffers one of the more confusing spotify band listings ever. Namespace collisions suck, they need to fix that imho. itunes too to a degree.

CFCF - Cometrue
/ on “Cometrue” EP (2011)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ They *recently* put up a Sleep-Over remix on Soundcloud too. I love it when favorites merge.

Tennis - My Better Self
/ on “Young & Old” (2012) LP
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ link recently broke, fixed now.

Marina and the Diamonds - Homewrecker
/ on “Electra Heart” (2012)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Squarely in my cateogry of “guilty pleasure”. Sometimes best late at night flying around town on a my bicycle.

Little Scream - Cannons
/ on “The Golden Record” (2011)
/ itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Love this track too (and the rest of the album), but had “People is Place” in mind, though couldn’t source it via soundcloud. :-(

Karen O - Strange Love
/ off soundtrack for “Frankenweenie Unleashed!” (2012)
/ hypem / spotify

/ Besides the “Yeah Yeah Yeahs”, she collaborates with numerous other bands, and has several tracks for films, including this most recent one. Making up for long neglecting her by this double post. ;-)

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Honeybear
/ on “Show Your Bones” LP (2006)
/ itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Karen O has been a long time love, predating my recent resurgence in contemporary music discovery. She deserves a slot here for sure. She embodies my common theme of “ladies who belt it out”.

Nerd Revolt - Insomnia
/ on ST “Nerd Revolt” LP (2012)
/ bandcamp / twitter / youtube / soundcloud / itunes / hypem

/ “We’re just two cyborgs, cruising through the multiverse…” One to watch IMHO. And literally, as they video blog just about everything! Nerd is not just a name with these two.

The Limiñanas - AF3458
/ on “Crystal Anis” (2012)
/ itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Sophmore album dropped recently… both very good. Especially if you enjoy the occasional french lyrics/vocals and slightly nostalgic sound.

Daughter - Smother
/ on forthcoming single/EP
/ www / bandcamp / soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ I’ve posted her before, but new single pre-released, can’t resist, can’t get enough.

DOTT - Let’s Do It
/ on “Button” EP (2012)
/ bandcamp / soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Consider my buttons pushed. Tripped and fell into “DOTT” via “The Limiñanas” (which I don’t think I’ve posted yet). Only a few hearts on HypeMachine at time of posting. I expect/hope to see many more soon. Share the love.

Niki & The Dove - Tomorrow
/ on “Instinct” LP (2012)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ New LP length dropped, i missed it but noticed when it showed up on spotify. I really wish there was a service that did a good job at notifications for this shit. If there is let me know?

POLIÇA - Dark Star
/ on “Give You The Ghost” LP (2012)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Random find via her previous project, although I think the intense hype around this current project would have led me here eventually, and well deserved hype in my opinion. Search for “Roma di Luna” if you want more of her vocals. Whole album is this good, if not better.

Britta Persson - Cliffhanger
/ on “Kill Hollywood Me” (2008)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ new to me. ;-) There are some tracks I enjoy more (“U-Turns” and “Enter and Leave”, among others), but she had an official soundcloud. :-)

Passion Pit - Carried Away
/ on “Gossamer” LP (2012)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Some more crazy-catchy pop from Passion Pit out there now. In general great summer/biking listening, as always.

Carlea - Looking at Me
/ on “Gravite” EP (2012)
/ soundcloud / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ some more really yummy contemporary french electro-disco, this track in particular is the jam! Via [Frak Yeah French Music], THANKS!

Seeker Lover Keeper - Even Though I’m A Woman
/ on ST “Seeker Lover Keeper” (2011)
/ www / twitter / itunes / spotify / hypem

/ Introduced to me via @inlovewithmybike on TIMJ, Thanks! (Though with a track I do prefer over this one, but this was the only one someone had upped to soundcloud).
