you're drifting like a fire

as my love for all things indietronica, electro-pop and synth-pop continues to grow so does my obsession with Passion Pit. This five member electronic group is pretty well known for their awesome remixes throughout the music world, but they make some excellent music of their own. Their first full length album, Manners, is set to be released on May 18th and is already getting great reviews. Catchy, fun, synth-pop....check it out.

"One of the best songs I've heard in a long time. It sounds like the hope I have for the Summer ahead. I love hearing inspiring new music while I'm writing and recording." - John Mayer

we are always running for the thrill of it

Empire Of The Sun - Walking On A Dream -

How can I explain
Talking to myself
Will I see again

We are always running for the thrill of it thrill of it
Always pushing up the hill searching for the thrill of it
On and on and on we are calling out and out again
Never looking down I’m just in awe of what’s in front of me

Is it real now
When two people become one
I can feel it
When two people become one

Thought I’d never see
The love you found in me
Now it’s changing all the time
Living in a rhythm where the minutes working overtime

Catch me I’m falling down
Catch me I’m falling down

Don’t stop just keep going on
I’m your shoulder lean upon
So come on deliver from inside
All we got is tonight that is right till first light

and every night we'll watch the stars

Friendly Fires are a band from the UK who released their self-titled debut album in September of last year. These guys have gained some popularity over the last few months for some catchy indie rock. They've been a constant on my playlist for some time now and wanted to share with all you beautiful people. A little bit rock, a little bit electronica, a lot of goodness.

there's something in the air tonight

Cut Copy was one of my favorite new groups to listen to in 2008. Their awesomely delicious electronica album, In Ghost Colours, has been on non-stop for the last month or so. Their CD was also on a number of "Best of 2008" lists across the internet and print. If you haven't taken a listen yet, now is your chance. While they have a little flavor of 80's synthesized goodness, they've created a style of electronica all their own. Take a listen...and boogie.
