Mungolian Jetset
Mungolian Jetset: I’ve played this album to death recently. Serious yet lighthearted dance that’s really ethereal but still has a very steady chug. You definitely don’t have to be a devotee to the genre to enjoy this.

I haven’t posted anything in a while (he says to the empty void of the interwebbings), so I thought I’d post two albums that I’ve really been enjoying lately.
The Aliens: Luna
This is the second release from ex-Beta Band members, The Aliens. Be sure to listen to this album on a pair of headphones as you enjoy the pop-psychedelic studio mastery of Luna! Throw the Beta Band, The Beach Boys, a tie-dyed t-shirt, brit-pop, and a mythical studio wizard into a blender and this is what comes out.
Zomby: Where Were U in ’92
I’ve always enjoyed my music LOUD! Whether playing live, listening to the car stereo, or throwing a tune on the record player, I usually have the volume much louder than what the average person would be comfortable with. I just so happened to be playing the new album from Zomby on the ol’ home stereo when I eventually heard the Austin Police Department knocking on the front door of my house. “Ummm, we’re going to need you to turn down the music sir,” says Mr. Officer. To which I respond, “Oh, I didn’t think it would be that terribly loud outside, what with all of the windows and doors closed.” “Well I could hear it outside, from across the street,…inside of my car,…clearly.” I’m sorry, Where Were U in ’92 is just that good. Zomby was obviously on the rave floor in 1992 taking notes. This is a fresh twist on the dubstep genre by infusing the dark warbling/wobbling bass of dubstep with all of the wonderful stabbing synths, dancehall sirens, and ambient diva vocals from the glory days of old. I haven’t been this excited about a dance record since Studio’s West Coast came out a year ago.
