Another strong month of new music and the introduction of some new techno-folky bands that I like a lot. Another first for me in February was seeing George Clinton and the P-Funk. I had no idea how much of this music and lyrics have populated mass culture. It was a great show and one that I am glad I was able to see, as I am not sure how many more concerts George has in him!
Happy and Down the Road by C2C - Little French tecnho band that I instantly fell in love with and bought everything. These two are my favorites by far for their toe-tapping goodness.
If So by Atlas Genius - I continue to love everything by these Aussie guys and am glad they finally released their EP.
One Way Trigger by The Strokes - It's techno. It's poppy. It's addictive.
Kangaroo Court by Capital Cities - I wasn't kidding about the techno influence in this month's songs. These guys are coming to town soon and I hope they are as good in person as their recorded stuff has been.
Spotlight by Leagues - This is one of those songs that I instantly loved and somehow reminds me of summer.
Hero by Family of the Year- departing from techno to simple and sweet, Hero is a great song and worthy of being on a coming of age soundtrack a la Garden State.
Demon to Lean on by Wavves - a bit too much like Weezer but something about the edge in his voice makes me like this.
Heavy Feet by Local Natives - A haunting song, an oddly sweet video.
Do the Right Thing by Dog is Dead - I am a big fan of Dog is Dead but they really haven't had any commerical success in the US. I can't even buy them on itunes yet. Also listen to Teenage Daughter.
