Giorgio Mordor produced an album for Sparks and, oh man, is it amazing. Classic disco. Sparks, if you’re unfamiliar, is an amazing brit-rock turned disco turned chamber pop band with records stretching back to the 70’s. Certainly worth looking forward to. Their songs remain witty and catchy and wonderful to this day.

That sound you hear is every riot grrl trying to figure out if this is an X-Ray Spex cover or a Huggy Bear cover.

It’s like Mates of State got a full band together.

This song is the most fun you’ll have all day. Mates of State have been consistently good for so long now that I get dizzy just thinking about it.

Yacht is just wonderful. Just an all around wonderful band. A little culty? Sure. Still a good time? You bet.

Slow aching doo-wop by means of indie rockers. Mister Heavenly is pure songwriting craftsmanship. Effortless shifting moods and fantastic chord structure run under starkly contrasting vocals.

It’s no secret that I love Electric Six. And it’s no secret that I love synth pop. So when they put out a synth pop album, I was overjoyed.

When I go to an electronic show, this is what I expect to see. There better be someone awkward on stage and there better be UFO sound coming out of his mouth.
