Latest track from the forthcoming album from Hot Chip is a electronic burner that steadily moves along with a steel drum accompaniment. The old analogue synths on this track remind me of the types of sounds Depeche Mode would use in their early years, which is a treat for this D-mode fan.
Enjoying the melancholy of this electronic pop track from Chew Lips. Must admit this fits nicely between my Hot Chip and Little Dragon tunes on my ipod. They are set to release a full lenght this coming January.

Chew Lips are three kids from London (Tigs, Will and James).
They play lo-fi tech tunes that are infectious and have been together since about March 2008

If you took Empire of the Sun and smashed them with Passion Pit, you have a track like “Goth Star”. PicturePlane (aka Travis Egedy) samples Fleetwood Mac’s (“Seven Wonders“) and makes a delightful moving piece of electronic pop candy.
