Archived entries for New Wave

Glass Ghost – Mechanical Life

This song unfolds so well. The off-putting, awkward, pet-shop boys vocals sits on top of a just barely there beat, and takes its sweet time to open up into the jam that follows. It’s the minimalism that Glass Ghost gets that makes this song such a gem.

I highly recommend listening to more.

A.Human – P.F.C.

A.Human : Brick Lane Festival 2009 : P.F.C. from A.Human on Vimeo.

Painfully catchy tune from London’s own A.HUMAN set to footage from the Brick Lane Festival they played last year. I’m loving the new wave throwback vibe they bring to the table. Their self-titled EP is full of more ass-shaking goodness so make sure to grab a copy from them.

Wild Nothing – Summer Holiday

These days, a lot of bands try to regress to decades past. They sound like they exclusively listen to records their dad’s bought at their age. Wild Nothing, however, own a fucking time machine.

Get it here.

Kisses – People Can Do The Most Amazing Things

I picked up Kisses‘ album The Heart of the Nightlife on a whim last week after hearing a little buzz about them. The LA duo sports a balearic dance pop sound landing somewhere between Jens Lekman and Air France. This track brings me back to high school and my obsession with Joy Division— seriously, is that Ian Curtis on vocals?

Ruby Suns – Kenya Dig it

Ruby Suns, what a dumb name for such a great song.
