I remember hearing this song all over the radio, specifically on C89.5 who specialize in electro and never knowing who it was. As I was perusing the internet recently I stumbled upon a goldmine. It is La Roux, a couple of kids from England who make really catchy synthpop. Inspired by the 80’s synthpop we love, namely Yaz, Heaven 17, and Depeche Mode, they’ve come up with an album that you can’t easily forget. This song ‘Bulletproof’ is what got me…
As I was researching La Roux I came upon another amazing group, The Temper Trap. The band is comprised of four dudes from Australia and their album ‘Conditions” was released just four months ago. They have somewhat of an atmospheric sound to them and at times almost sound like Radiohead. The entire album is streaming at their Myspace page and I urge you to check it out. This song ‘Sweet Disposition’ is what got to me…
