Italian DJs are the hottest

This time last year, I was studying in Italy and the Italian DJ/production duo that were popular were 'Crookers'. These guys know how to create HOT house infused with hip-hop music. They are constantly working, remixing songs by various artists. Essentially, everything they touch turns to GOLD!

Check out their Myspace.

What was old is now new

Sometimes I download music, listen to it a few times and then it becomes buried under the newer music I download. Today, I rediscovered the greatness that is Miike Snow, a electropop band from Sweden. Early 2009 was was then I first listened to this band and since, this music has gone mainstream, a staple in popular dance clubs and on television shows such as Gossip Girl. They also have really cool music videos.

Songs to listen to: Animal, Black & Blue, Burial

...Uffie's gonna make this shit rock...

I have been on winter break for over two weeks not and I must admit that I have not been listening to music as of lately. When I was supposed to be working on my portfolio, I stumbled across Uffie. I would describe Uffie's music as an amazing combination of JUSTICE, Peaches and MIA. Raunchy lyrics and funky electric music... she is not afraid to take music to the next level!

Tracks to listen to: Pop the Glock and Ready to Uff
