Diana Vickers - The Boy Who Murdered Love

-----------Once my ears were treated to a dance party from Brit-sensation Diana Vickers, I sprinted (literally, I left in front of the TV...lazyass, that I am) to this post page.

Nineteen year-old Diana Vickers was a finalist on British TV-show The X Factor, and even though she didn't win (the f*ck?) she did snag a #1 on the UK Billboard charts. No big deal.

If you've ever wondered what Daft Punk's massive hit "One More Time" sounded like with lyrics, here it is. Whoever decided to mash this song with her vocals is genius. Though I'm biased to almost all Daft Punk, I think you'll agree that miss Vickers does the techno-track plenty of dancefloor justice.

Ghostland Observatory - Midnight Voyage

-------------Brainstorming bands to bring in for the spring season is always a turbulent hurricane of opinions. Someone could nominate a perfectly terrible group and find out from their colleagues that whomever they thought was totally rad is totally bad.

Sticking my neck out for the duet from Austin, Texas, I voted a big "yes" to Ghostland Observatory. These guys seem to fill their jackets better than most electro-bands on the circuit right now, incorporating a montage of laser-swished guitar melodies to their Daft Punk-influenced beats. "Midnight Voyage" boasts a funky and slightly unexpected rebel-pop guitar riff that carries through dreamlike keyboards and Aaron Behren's vocals. Get "Midnight Voyage" from the Ghostland Observatory album, Paparazzi Lightning.
