I Called It

My friend, in visiting my music blog for the first time, exclaimed "wow. too hipster to function." So I write this post self-consciously aware of accidental pretentiousness... But I am not ashamed of who I am, I guess. Here's a post where I tell you what bands will be the next Passion-Pit-like electronica buzz bands and I will say "I called it..."

Sounds a lot like the Chunk of Change EP, plus 90s references
Reptar - Stuck In My Id
Reptar - Context Clues

Space-agey in a Florence and the Machine kind of way, but with lasers
Purity Ring - Lofticries
Purity Ring - Ungirthed

They're Australian and a duo. Get over it.
Monarchy -
I Won't Let Go (Bag Raiders remix)
Monarchy - Gold in the Fire

Neon Gold

Neon Gold is the greatest music label ever. There is no argument here. These are the songs I obsessed over in 2010 from the Neon golden boys and girls.

Foster the People - Pumped Up Kicks
Everything, Everything - MY KZ, UR BF (Grum Remix)
The Knocks - Dancing with the DJ
Bag Raiders - Way Back Home

Introductory Post

Bag Raiders are nuts.

My name is Yuriko (Not really but don't want my real name everywhere). I hate Uggs. I hate Crocs. I hate America's arrogance, though I consider myself patriotic. I hate fake people, fake nails, and fake friends. I hate meatloaf. I hate heavy metal and chauvinists and crusted food on old, dirty plates. But I love music more than my own limbs, so here's my blog!

My music taste is pretty damn eclectic. Here's one of my favorite mash-ups between Lupe Fiasco's "Superstar" and Radiohead's "Reckoner" by Mick Boogie and Terry Urban. My friend Julia and I rock out to this song like woah!
Reckon a Superstar

I am obsessed with poppy electronica. One of my favorites is Bag Raiders, some crazy Australians that make videos inspired by Power Rangers. Incred.
Bag Raiders - Fun Punch (Original Mix)

You gotta love JPop, especially from the beautiful and talented MEG. No one wears pink gingham dresses or dances with cat mascots like she does.
MEG- Heart

I'm not just an electro enthusiast. A Sufjan Stevens or Elliott Smith indie jem makes me smile too. One of my recent alternarock favorites is Your Twenties. Understated, talented, relaxing, love it.
Your Twenties - Billionaires

Jaa! Till next time.
