Eli turned me on to Ratatat during one of his self important rants where i was inclined to pay attention; I'm glad I did. The NYC Electronic duo has been turning up beats since around 2004, and they've been on tour with Bjork, Daft Punk, Interpol, and CSS among others. Their sound is upbeat and purely instrumental, a type suited for walking down a sunny street, or as soundtrack for a mellow indie house party, involving Pabst Blue Ribbon.
Their Latest release, "LP3," is slated for July, with the single "shiller" released on 7" vinyl. Here's the latest release, the unofficial video for "Mirando", an video mashup of Predator, created by band member Evan Mast.

Get to the Choppa!
"Alice" is an electronic song created 90% of audio pieces taken from the movie "Alice in Wonderland." The accompanying video features clever editing from the movie and takes you on an adventure true to the original. Music/video remixes are all well and good, but the impressive part is that the composer is a 19 year old from Australia.
Stream/download the song here, watch the video on youtube.
Pogo (or as he calls himself on last.fm) put together a few other songs into an EP called "Wonderland." They are all equally good, just no video for them... yet.
I was a little preoccupied getting back to work Monday and missed getting this video posted, but better late than never.
This is Butterfingers by 80's Electropop group Bomb the Bass. They recently came out of the woodwork with Butterfingers being the first single off of the upcoming album "Future Chaos." The video features a puppetized minimoog, produced by the Parish Factory. Check it out here. [via NotCot]
Oh Hai! I'm Nate and I live in the sometimes beautiful, always exciting, city of Buffalo, NY. I'm not too focused on this blog, but you'll probably end up reading something about Buffalo, my toy obsession, burly bears, club drama, Google Android, and some damn good music. This is my blog. Read it. Cheers.
