The wife was hosting a club event in Second Life this evening (“Demented and sad, but social.”) and the DJ played a tune that really caught my attention. It was “This Boy’s In Love” by The Presets. Well, this set off a bit of YouTube spelunking that turned up a bunch of their videos, and some related bands/music that I’d never heard of but am thoroughly enjoying.
Sometimes I run into a covey of bands huddled in plain site and I feel like I’ve been living under a rock. I seriously need to update the ol’ music collection. Some of these bands I’m finding have been around for quite a while.
Some things I’ve found tonight…
“With Every Heartbeat” by Robyn – Her vocals remind me of Kate Bush, and that’s just awesome.
“My Delirium” by Ladyhawke – A fellow aspie. Lots of Joan Jett in her voice and style (on this track, at least…I’m still finding other tracks).
“Work On You” by MSTRKRFT – I really dig the robot sound. These guys remind me of Solvent. Excellent video.
I recommend pretty much everything I’ve seen/heard so far on ModularPeople’s channel on tha youtubez.
