Magnetic Manoeuvres ~ Gay Rabbits (mashup of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and The Magnetic Fields)

Well, check out this stroke of brilliance, then! Some clever person has created a mashup of Enola Gay and Let's Pretend We're Bunny Rabbits, and it's truly great. I really think this track deserves to reach more ears. Loving the artwork, too! πŸ˜€πŸ°πŸ°


Was it your cup of ☕? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments box below.

The Ballet ~ Daddy Issues

Oh man, I love The Ballet with all my heart — so I was beyond excited for the release of their fifth album last month. Already I can say with 99% certainty that this is going to be my favourite record this year. πŸ’œπŸ˜­πŸ”₯ Have a listen below. 

Recently I did a deep dive, and discovered this: before forming The Ballet, Greg and Craig (plus their fellow grad student Emily) were in a band called The Mean Corner. They released one EP in 2004 called I Learned It By Watching You. This is my favourite track, "Who Is Sean Cody?"

Cascading synths; strummed Spanish guitar; boy-girl duetting; witty and heartfelt lyrics: what a perfect pop gem. πŸ₯°πŸ’› If anyone would like me to upload the rest of this excellent EP to YouTube, please just leave a comment below and I shall do it!

(P.S. Sean Cody is the name of a gay porn studio, in case you were wondering. 😏)
