Sweet blend of electronics, soothing vocals, and orchestral elements in a post disco pop vibe. This track came from their 2009 release, “All Night Sun Light”. Infusion are Manny Sharrad, Jamie Stevens and Frank Xavier from Australia.

Sufjan Stevens – I Walked
Been looking forward to new Sufjan Stevens and he didn’t disappoint. His latest offering, “I Walked” sees Sufjan embracing the electronic side of things. He has stepped away from the narative and is looking inside himself to produce more intimate portraits. You can find this track on his upcoming full length release titled, “The Age of Adz”.
MAU – Arkanoid
Man and Unable, aka MAU, just sent this track in and it kills. MAU originally hailing from all over the world (Denmark, Portugal, France, Germany and Israel) are now based in Portugal and are set to release their third full length album later this year, from which this track was taken from.
Filled with odd electronic chirps and gurgles (perhaps the link in title “Arkanoid” to the video game?) meshes well with lead singer LuÃs F. de Sousa’s voice. The verses on this track also remind me of something Frou Frou would have produced.
The chorus just sticks in my mind:
Hit Me
Pull me
Down-down-down-down
Another Breakdown
Now-now
Slow Down Now
Slow Down-down-down-down
Another Breakdown
Here is a remix by 3rd for your enjoyment:
