Favorite music at the moment
It’s not a best of 2010 in any way. Actually, it’s just a sample song from each band I recommended to a friend earlier today when she asked for tips on ‘good music’.
Caravan Palace offer a fresh take on the jazzfunkelectro style which in my ears was pioneered by Parov Stelar.
Another type of retro dance music, more disco, comes in the form of Louis la Roche. I try to sneak this is in almost every time someone lets me play the dj. I would be happy if he produced something form Ellie Goulding.
Knightlife also bring some updated disco sounds and I have actually managed to get my hands on a bootleg where they are mashed with Major Lazer. Totally groovy!
And when it’s time to chill, I like to wrap up in some Kashmir and dream away into the world of Johan Hillblom.
The chill gets even chillier with Röyksopp, but luckily Robyn is always around the corner to cheer us up.
Then somebody who is a little bit too drunk decides to get the party started again, with Bonaparte. The slightly more sober person will argue that Berlin cannot remain the cutting edge forever and proceed to throw on Magic System from 2005 to somehow make their point.
And that beat inpires the pop head to introduce of Montreal. Which in my opinion should be accompanied by Magnetic Fields.
But there are more ways of making slow music, such as RJD2. Run that twice through all your household appliances and out comes Rusko, finally.
