Electronic Pop | House
For fans of She Wants Revenge and Joy Division — this pick is for you. I can’t seem to find too much info on Lakey aside from his myspace page, which states he’s from Croatia and his last.fm page. Give these two tracks and listen and then bop over to his last.fm page to download the entire album for FREE — yes folks F R E E, as in FREE BEER.
A ballad set against synths, muted drums beats, guitars and pianos. This just gets me pysched up to hear the new Depeche Mode album which is due to be released in April of 09.

A rather dark pop track with a muted bassline that haunts. Kinda reminds me of a cross between The Postal Service and Camouflage. This track is taken from their 2006 release “Three”
From last.fm:
The project Phantom/Ghost was formed in a hotel bar by producer and musician Thies Mynther (Stella, Superpunk) and Tocotronic’s singer, songwriter and guitarist, Dirk von Lowtzow – both heroes of the music scene in Hamburg, Germany. The band’s first and self-titled album was released in 2001. The second one was called “To Damascus” and released in 2003. In 2006, Phantom/Ghost released their most recent album, “Three”.
