Love is in the Air with this new single from the French electronic pop duo Air. Sing Sang Sung is from their sixth studio album Love 2 which is already getting a lot of raves from music critics and blogs. Take a listen to it..
Listening to this song feels like a Sunday morning with RJ 100 on the background playing 60s music. Noisettes' brand of indie music is an incorporation of soul, rock and post-punk that is evident in this song. Never Forget You is the third single from their second studio album Wild Young Hearts. Another thing that I like about Noisettes is their lead singer and bassist Shingai (Shin-GUY) Shoniwa. Her voice brings the soul flavor to the indie rock influences of her band mates and her fashion sense is a fabulous as her music. Never Forget You sounds like Amy Winehouse minus the cocaine and Jack Daniels breath.
This is the best disco video I have ever seen! If you're a big fan of Frankmusic and Calvin Harris, Tommy Sparks would really be on your list. This particular song, "She's Got Me Dancing," is insanely infectious. It has electro and 80's new wave mashed up in one disco anthem. This sound is so 2009. Plus the video is hilarious.Watch out for the nipple laser!
Violence is never this stylish. Jack White's another new band, The Dead Weather, fashions their sound with psych-rock, groovy yet explosive drumming with Alison Mosshart's sultry voice. "Treat Me Like Your Mother" video was directed by Jonathan Glazer that features White and Mosshart exchanging bullets like there is no tomorrow.
Romance-comedy movies make me hurl even just seeing the trailers of 'em. Maybe I am just bitter how perfect they present love that in reality, I can barely survive its opening credits. But 500 Days of Summer is different in a way it made me realize the true meaning of "love", at least for now. Here are my 500 reasons to watch 500 Days of Summer:
1. Zooey Deschanel stars the film. Isn't that enough reason? She may not be as hot as Megan Fox but Zooey is just way too cool for the comparison. She's also the 1/2 of the indie-folk band She & Him.
2. Cool soundtrack! I love love love all of the song played through out the film. It's like my own mixtape if i would be in love. It features The Smiths, Simon & Garfunkel, Regina Spektor, Black Lips and indie faves such as Feist, Doves, She & Him and Temper Trap. This is the best soundtrack of the year!
3. Nylon Covers. Zooey Deshanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt were on the covers of the coolest mags- Nylon and Nylon Guys Magazine.
4. Zooey Deschanel's retro-chic style. Though she wasn't the 'Sex and the City' kind of glamorous, Summer (Zooey) sports vintage chic that's insanely charming. Most of her wardrobe were in shades of Blue. This is to match her perfect blue eyes says Hope Hanafin, wardrobe designer of the film.
5. Joseph Gordon- Levitt is a natural. He is not your usual rom-com guy who has beautiful face and hot body that's why Tom, his character, is very relatable to any guy who's struggling about career and lovelife. I am not an exception to that.
6. Cinematic Style. Marc Webb showed his music video prowess in his feature length debut without over doing it. The film was presented in a non-liner way that created a fresh take on a modern romantic-comedy. I just loved the classic French film cut-away scene and all of the split screens, something new in this boy-meets-girl genre.
7. The Dance Sequence. Yes, it has a dance sequence and it was funny.
8-500. Because it's the coolest romance-comedy film ever! It's fresh and honest and way too realistic from Sandra Bullock or Julia Roberts' films. Another thing I liked about the film is it wasn't afraid to show the love in its real form. After watching the film, it made me realize that there is no destiny or fate in love, it just happen- coincidence that is (sniff). And before I sound too cheezy, just a spoiler, it has a sad happy ending. You figure out why. Watch it! Now na! : )
This Yale indie geekazoid is as intellectual as the sound they create. I cannot categorize what genre they're in but one thing's for sure, Dirty Projectors' music is disctinct and cleverly experemental without losing its pop sensibilities.
The French dance duo did it again or should I say remixed again. This time, they remixed a Lenny Kravitz song matching it up with a witty music video spoofing a standard end credit of a film. Check it out!
