yeah i love the junior boys and the knife especially. but there isn't a ton of good stuff in that vein as far as i can tell. but bpitch control records has a lot of goodness and check out dfa records. also i assume your familiar with the postal service?

theres so much i love about the postal service, but i just cant bear the guy's voice for too long

i thought of another sick LP, kind of like Hot Chip but much more freaky, so fucking good... Nôze - How To Dance

and also Kalabrese - Rumpelzirkus

and Kelley Polar - Love Songs Of The Hanging Gardens - this is maybe the closest thing to Hot Chip i can think of, although its still very different. thinking about it, its a little bit like a collaboration between the Junior Boys and Hot Chip!

Simian Mobile Disco are rocking my world at the moment. Kinda poppy in a 80s hip-house sorta way. [/cheese]
