Chromeo Gets Sudzy With It . . .

"Having already courted baby boomers and college-bounders, the only demo left untapped for Dave 1 and P-Thugg are little children. And thanks to Nickelodeon, Chromeo may now tap your little children. The duo performed a ditty written for them by hip tot program Yo Gabba Gabba! in an effort to convince children of all ages to clean up all good and nice. Cute to see how naturally Chromeo's electrofunk lends itself to broadcasting nurturing messages to children. Chalk it up to a mixture of personality and adorable use of talkbox". (stereogum.com)

Passion Pit

Passion Pit - The Reeling from Smoke My Tabaco on Vimeo.

I feel in love with Passion Pit when I heard Sleepyhead and now they have fully consumed my heart with this new cut and video. Album drops 5/19!

Shoes!

Remember a few years back when Liam Show put out the Shoes video on youtube? (Those shoes are miiiine bitch) This video seems like the appropriate progression. Tiga always seemed more comedy than hit (except for Sexor's Your Gonna Want Me) this proves it. And I'm totally feeling the chick's jumping cholla dress.
