Track of the Week

GUYS!

This song is my fucking jam right now, holy shit. 

Think for yourself.
You have to be willing to cut against the grain and get the distance from your peer groups.
And not only that, but you have to have a habitual vision of greatness.

BOOM. Truth fucking bomb and then DANCING.

Olympic Ayres - Control 

This duo is for the pleasure-seekers and the trouble-makers. Irrefutably catchy dance beat that makes you want to drop everything and take a road trip. Sun-soaked and highly dance-able have put these guys way way up on my radar.

Even though the song is about not being in control, these guys are definitely in control of their fucking disco revival.

Love always,
Nicole

Champion Sound

Now I am more than aware that Crystal Fighters are not new to the scene, and that I'm horribly late to the party but I've recently just gotten into them.  I'm not entirely sure what folktronica is, but apparently I like it.

The best way to describe them is that they are bright and brash, their eclectic unfocused sound reminds me a little of a Gracelands-era Paul Simon tribute act.

                                                          LA Calling - Crystal Fighters  
     

                                                          Everywhere - Crystal Fighters

I find their lyrics lacking, but the lack of lyrical integrity actually has no effect on their records. Honestly, they're one of those bands that I don't really want to sit around and dissect the music because it's rife with poor quality and such, but you just can't help be caught up in their delirious state of happiness.

In a Crystal Fighters world the MDMA is far from wearing off and it's perpetually sunny.

Love Always,
Nicole

p.s) I cannot explain the accents in some of their songs, but I'll allow it because, DANCING.
