MGMT - Flash Delirum
MGMT is releasing their sophomore album, Congratulations, on April 13th under Columbia Records. I saw them at Lollapalooza summer 2008 when they were getting huge at the time and they were awesome. Remixes have been flying around everywhere and they were being played by popular DJ’s like Crookers, etc. After getting a glimpse of this track, I don’t know how to feel about MGMT anymore. I used to be a fan of them but now I’m just indifferent about them. Maybe it’s just me because I was so used to Oracular Spectacular and that’s how I viewed their sound. It might be just me but we’ll see how it goes when the album comes out and see what other people think. Oh yeah, what’s up with the album cover? Sonic the Hedgehog remake?
What is this band getting into? :(

Ellie Goulding - Starry Eyed
(via last.fm)
Alright so I know we wrote a post about Ellie Goulding before but this is a legitimate reason now. She just released her album called “Lights” and its ridiculously good. I’ve been following her since square one with her tracks “Starry Eyed” & “Guns and Horses” from like spring 2008. The original tracks sound a bit different than the album versions but that doesn’t really matter anyways. She’s an electroacoustic pop artists from the UK and been blowing up in the music scene through her track’s and remixes. Especially with Jakwob’s dubstep remixes of Starry Eyed and Under the Sheets. Anyways her tracks are good and well, look at her, so cute! If I were you guys, I would get the album. Here’s some tracks for your tastes buds.

Crookers - Hip Hop Changed (feat. Rye Rye)
(via cassettecouture)
Ahhh I don’t know too much of detail about them except they’re Italian and make good music. Crookers initially started out separate DJ’s. They were known as DJ Phra and DJ Bot. Since 2003, they’ve have been drawing upon their collective musical backgrounds to create tracks that twist, startle and surprise with synthetic pop. I’ve been following them for awhile but what got my attention was like two years ago when Kid Cudi wasn’t even that big. They did a remix of Day n Night and it was on electro mixes everywhere. A year later everyone knew about Kid Cudi because of that track and now he’s big. Weird.
Anyways, Crookers is releasing a new album called “Tons of Friends” and it features a lot of artists from like Will I Am, Pitbull, Miike Snow, Major Lazer, Spank Rock, The Very Best, Rye Rye, etc. It’s coming out March 8th so get on it!
