BAND CRUSH: Jupiter

I haven't heard any good dance music lately until I discovered Jupiter. Their brand of dance music is everything I wanted.It has catchy dub beats, boogie funk, nu disco and sci-fi pop that breeze through Amélie's robo-girl vocals.

The video below is super LOVE! It's called Sake which is part of their debut album Juicy Lucy. It kinda reminds me of Daft Punk's earlier sound but with a female vocals.

I think this song just gave birth to a new genre which is French JPop hahaha

Like I said, they just released their full-length album this month called Juicy Lucy. And I must say, it's one of my fave releases so far. You can stream a minimix of the tracks from that album below. You're welcome :)

MUST LISTEN: Hold My Breath by Holy Ghost!

Good morning, people! It might be storming outside but that's not an excuse to skip aerobics today especially if Holy Ghost! is playing on the background. Hold My Breath is the new track from Holy Ghost!'s self-titled album and its Let's Get Physical vibe would make you lose few pounds by just listening to it. hahaha!

MUST LISTEN: 4 New Robyn Songs

I know a lot of you love Robyn so much and I do too. But honestly, sometimes, I question her creativity. I mean, she has released so many Body Talks album and she just remixed most of the songs from it to include something to the next installment.

Finally, she will release the final chapter of the Body Talk series this month which is called, you guessed it right, Body Talk. It includes five remixed songs from Part 1, two remixed songs from Part 2 and another five NEW songs which includes Indestructible.  I managed to have the other four of those new songs below for streaming.

Time Machine is definitely a single waiting to be released. It's one of the most commercial tracks from Robyn's Body Talk series. Call Your Girlfriend has that signature Robyn arrangement and play of emotion. You know she's in pain because of the lyrics of the song but at the same time she wants us to dance to it. In short, baliw! Stars 4-Ever and Get Myself Together are as pop as the former. It seems that Robyn saved all of the songs with commercial appeal for the final chapter.

MUST LISTEN: Death Before Disco (Turn It Up To Eleven) by Nightbus

The Halloween has passed and this song by Nightbus could have been a great dancefloor anthem during those costume parties. Death Before Disco (Turn It Up To Eleven) so far is my favorite track from Nightbus. It's all out disco and pop with that hint of edginess on the side. Think of Alphabeat doing a Ménage à trois with Calvin Harris and Junior Senior. This is probably my disco track of the year.

NEW MUSIC: Hands by The Ting Tings

I am not really sure if I like this new track from The Ting Tings but it sure is a catchy one. I only played it once in our communal stereo and our EIC was singing its chorus while exiting our office. I dunno, it's just way too disco gay for me. The duo teamed up with Calvin Harris in this track and you can download the unreleased remix of Hands here. Their sophomore album Kunst will be released this October.

MUST LISTEN: Say My Name by Holy Ghost!

Holy Ghost! is a true testament that music is an entity that transcends from one era to another. This particular track, Say My Name, has that mid-80's disco vibe infused with modern play on synthesizers. I love how it sounds like a track from the past but still the relevance of its musicality is so present. I am so excited with this NY-based duo and I am sure DFA wouldn't sign them up for nothing. Their Static on the Wire EP is due early this June.
