Exactly. Never thought I would dig Australian electronic rock music..... :ohhh:

First three videos posted are the ones I would have picked too....this one was released last year, is ok too..... agreed...looking forward to fresh music from them...

Yeah, MGMT was heavy in the rotation about 2-3 years ago. Before them, I was listening to Under the Influence of Giants, The Knife, Of Montreal, etc.

shyt, I listen to everything LOL


I always listened to everything, but spotify has expanded my horizons :lawd:


These groups remind me of that 1980s sound Tears for Fear used to have.

Pandora da Gawd did that for me when it first came out; haven't looked back since.

I love that I could pick a song and they'd give me similar artists... that's how I discovered groups like The Cat Empire, Coheed and Cambria, The Mars Volta, etc. :blessed:

I been listening to a lot of folk/acoustic guitar stuff lately, Iron & Wine, Andrew Bird, Alexi Murdoch, spotify has me eating so well.

MGMT has a similar sound, so if you like Empire of the Sun check them out too.


MGMT - Electric Feel - YouTube

best trackk onn the albium. empire of the sun's album blows it out the water to me tho

if it wasnt for Blueprint 3 i probably wouldnt know EOST though. With europop/electric music at a peak right im surprised that they havent continued their project

Love, love, LOVE Iron and Wine; 'Boy with a Coin' is my shizz.

If you like stuff in that folk/acoustic vein, I listen to a lot of Mumford and Sons, The Avett Brothers and the Zac Brown Band (went to see them play at Red Rocks in Colorado; it was amazing).

Trapeze swinger from I&W is audio crack to me, from the lyrics to the Jay-Z whisper flow.

I listen to Mumford and Sons, will check out Zac Brown Band next, plan on maybe seeing Andrew Bird in person since his live show absolutely destroys his recordings.
