I've been listening to the new Neon Indian since hearing this one on the radio:


I'm kind of impressed by the length of this album. Most of his earlier stuff was shorter, but the quality is maintained.

Going to see Doomtree in concert this Wednesday. Excited about that.

1970's euro disco

sunny - boney M

also

Musique - keep on jumping.         both on my ipod

Ha! I totally dig Italo Disco and all related stuff


For Bony M, you gotta check out the insane "School Song" ( I can't remember the real title. "Happy Song"). There are different versions, and different videos, but it's a wonderfully awesome song with creepy undertones that you can't help but love.

UPDATE:

I'm not instantly won over by that track, but it certainly piqued my interest and I'll have to check out other tracks by Neon Indian now. I like the vocals and minimal synth. The best part of the song, for me, is the discordant "noise" lead featured in 2-3 segments. I love the discordant + catchy poppy formula (early OMD did this well). It's an easy way to give pop an edge, and I love it.

If I had to guess, I would say Konami (NES Bayou Billy) was the source of the sample for the human punching/coughing sound.

The end of the track wraps things together nicely (I was afraid the composition was going to fall apart, unintentionally).

Time to listen to the track a second time .

The synths in Bony M Happy Song totally influenced Pet Shop Boys (they've said that songs from Italian clubs were an inspriration...but they didn't mention any song/artist in particular. Ha!)

And I don't know why Moonray --> OSIBISA, but I'm really, really diggin' OSIBISA. It's perfect for the mood right now (all kids sleeping, cold-blustery winds outside, this morning's leftover coffee in my mug).

Starf*cker, Cults, M83, and Youth Lagoon. All excellent bands.
