Hands down one of my favorite albums of this year so far. This Australian trio has a very defining electro-pop sound with an 80's feel to the band (think New Order/Joy Division/etc). It's nothing amazingly new or original, but it's a breath of fresh air in this sometimes stagnant genre. The disc plays like a dj set with one song providing a segue into the next, and it has a very smooth feel to it. Not surprisingly, these guys are solid on the decks as well. Their "So Cosmic" mixtape is also one of my favorites of the year. Hopefully the Craigslist gods will be kind to me and I will find a ticket to their sold out show this Wednesday at the Abbey Pub.

The latest output from Greg Gillis aka Girl Talk. An interesting mash up that once again goes all over the place. Gillis is also taking the Radiohead/Trent Reznor approach to releasing albums - pay what you want. Here is a link to his web site where you can pay whatever you want for his album. Enjoy.
