7 Day Visa - Tokyo

Here is some really nice dance music ala 808 State. It borders at times on new age, but it's pretty chill. Inspired by a 7 day trip to Tokyo in April 2009 by Jamahl Richardson. It's nice music, not going to change the world, but nice enough.

The Slants (! OMG!)

How do I not know about this band?!They are so cool, like a pumped up dark wave version of Smile.dk. Very DDR like and plenty of great old skool synthpop mixed in. Just check out Kokoro if you don;t think this stuff is the best!

Time for some mmmm Pop Music

Yes, there is good pop music being made out there aside from whatever monstrosity Black Eyed Peas is being pimped on radio these days


1. These guys are my new faves- I am so enjoying their album (from, ahem, 2007) "High Society." Sorry if the song below is too country, but the album is full of great sounding ELO/Van Morrison/Beach Boys pop...
Silver Seas "Country Life"



Crazy Loop "Ma Ma Ma"
insane Romanian pop fromthe guys who were o-Zone?



Declan and the antics "I Was Made for the Nightlife"

Like the video? How about you get another song for free? :-)

track o the day - Nova Social "(When She Was The)Other Woman"

New York metropolitan area pop group Nova Social expands their sonic palette with their new self-titled EP, mating their ambitious pop songwriting with electronic and dance music influences. The new EP includes six rhythmically-and-lyrically-driven songs in the vein of perfect '80s new wave and recent DFA Records releases. Violins and violas sizzle with frenetic '70s disco and orchestral pop-inflected arrangements, while Nile Rodgers-meets-Robert Fripp guitar playing grooves and unsettles.

I like it, good pop sound but electronic. :-)
