It’s been a while since I’ve downloaded music. Yesterday, I did not download anything new, but rather downloaded albums that included songs that I’ve liked for months. Most of these artists have an indie rock, new wave, electronic, electropop feel. You would never find any of these artists on the radio unless they were featured on a track with Jay, Kanye, Lil Wayne or Drake. Yet, they are super talented! So, make sure you support these artists by downloading their music and/or attending their concerts or shows that may be in your local city.

Cop these:

Youth Novels by Lykke Li

So Jealous by Tegan and Sara

Raggatronic by Enur

Demon Days by Gorillaz

by Kanye West ft. N.A.S.A, Santogold & Lykke Li: The rap Kanye is back – well he never left, but it is good to have a track with a different feel from him that doesn’t include his most recent singing! My ears have been intrigued by this hip-hop/rock mix that I have termed urban techno. I can’t wait until this is released as an official track so it can be the song on my MySpace profile. The only thing is that there are 3 additional artists on the track and I can’t tell who is who. Hopefully, they will release a video for the track that displays all these creative masterminds. Until then, I’m on the research hustle to find more information on who these artists are and the albums they have released/are about to release.
