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.
