Fyfe's "St. Tropez" is a short and sweet adventure. It's like two songs spliced into each other. It's a see-saw between gentle indie soul and orchestral bombast.

A friend of mine just peaked my interest in Madon's "Beggin'," which is just a really fun trip down soulful dance music. We need much, much more like this song.

I thought you left in disgust a couple of days ago.

you bet!

Daft Punk, of course, came out with perhaps the album of the year. They resurrected neo-disco and ****ing perfected it.

An outstanding disco rock song came out last year, however, from Penguin Prison: "Don't **** With My Money." Extremely catching song, the kind you whistle long after you heard it earlier in the day.

I think the best new-ish genre of the past several years is NOT chill wave, it's indie R&P. How To Dress Well and Active Child are two of the best of the best right now. I'm happy to dispense recommendations should anybody be aching for any.

But right now I've really loved this song by some group called Metronomy, called "The Look" remixed. Perfect example of what this genre does so perfectly.

Who? Me?

What led you to believe that?

I leave this board in disgust every day. :D

Here's something for SR: some good groove electro with that foggy, delicious haze I love so much and never seems to quite be as upbeat as you like it to be: :D

Schlohmo's "Later." This song takes precisely 1:25 to warm up. And then it hits its stride.

I used to like them a ton. Like, a ton a ton. The Richest Man In Babylon is still a damn good listen whenever I break it out.

I loved how they were able to so seemlessly work in any culture of music from the globe into their work. Nowadays, I tend to prefer different country's musical cultures on their own terms. I really like Oliver Mtukudzi, for starters.

I like that you like that I like it.
