Miike Snow’s Sophomore LP – “Happy to You”

Miike Snow

I jumped on the Miike Snow bandwagon quite late in the game.  It was only after copious amounts of Facebook creeping that I realized what I had been missing.  However, I’m happy to announce that after three years these Swedish babes are still my favorite “Socialists”.

They’re the perfect blend of emoish pop-rock and danceable indie, or in other words, a one stop shop.  After an intense make-out session at your parents place, you won’t have to change the song for a post petting spooning session. They simply have a little something for everybody in any situation.

Happy To You

If you haven’t heard already, Miike Snow is gearing up to release they’re sophomore LP, “Happy to You”, on March 27.  And because the World Wide Web is such a fabulous place, a few tracks have already sprung up.  My personal favorite has to be “Paddling Out”, with “Black Tin Box” coming in a close second.  While the latter showcases a much darker interpretation of the trio’s sound,  the combination of Lykke Li and Miike Snow is a musical version of Prozac. I just can’t get enough. Check out all the tracks below.

Chek out this remix Tyler the Creator did for Lykke Li’s I Follow Rivers. The timing is a little off but I think it actually kinda works with the overall effect? Watch the whole thing, trust and turn the lights off?

2008 Top 20 Tracks… according to Flores

storm

Well, the year is almost officially over and it couldn’t come soon enough… it’s time for my TOP TWENTY SONGS OF 2008!

You know I’ve never been the kind of person who could say with full conviction which movie is my favourite of all time or what the best restaurant is. See, I find it will almost always be dependent on how you feel at that particular point in time.

Of course, music is the same way. Even the most mundane routine in your day to day life can be perfectly captured by some song. And that song at that exact moment is the best song there could be… (Garden State would not have been as good a movie without that amazing soundtrack)

So anyways, it goes without saying then that I had some difficulty selecting my TOP TWENTY.

There are definitely songs on my list that have been fully rinsed in 2008. But hey what can I say? I ain’t no snob… I’m a fan of pop music just as much as I am a fan of the indie and sub-pop jams.

I won’t bore you with a commentary on each track.

Here are twenty 2008 tracks that have stood out to me… haters, get your hate on:

20. Metronomy – A Thing For Me (Mad Decent’s B-Live Miami Mix)

19. Matt & Kim – Good Ol’ Fashion Nightmare

18. Santogold – Say Aha (Tepr Remix)

17. The Kills – Cheap and Cheerful

16. Ratatat – Mirando (YACHT Remix)

15. Portishead – Machine Gun

14. Friend – Secret

13. Mike Jones ft Lil Wayne – I Done Did It

12. Feist – I Feel It All (Escort Remix)

11. Radiohead – Reckoner (Diplo Remix)

10. Kid Cudi – Day ‘N Nite (Crookers Remix)

9. Lykke Li – Little Bit (CSS Remix)

8. Lil Wayne – A Milli (Say-Wut Remix)

7. Ladyhawke – Paris Is Burning (Cut Copy Remix)

6. Treasure Fingers – Cross The Dancefloor (Chromeo Remix)

5. Kings Of Leon – Sex On Fire

4. Crystal Castles – Courtship Dating

3. Friendly Fires ft Au Revoir Simone – Paris (Aeroplane Remix)

2. Empire Of The Sun – Walking On A Dream

1. Cut Copy – Lights & Music (Boys Noize Happy Birthday Remix)

Goodbye to the year that was… brighter days ahead?
