I have previously posted The Delfield's cover of The Cranberries hit, Dreams. Now Passion Pit did their own version too, and performed the piece as a surprise encore after playing EVERY SINGLE PIECE FROM CHUNK OF CHANGE AND MANNERS during their recent tours from Washington to parts of Atlanta. It sounds faintly like Jonsi of Sigur Ros, don't you think? Anyway - Love Love Love it! Here's the cover. Enjoy!

One of this blog's readers, Michael Christopher sent me this unofficial video of Passion Pit's Sleepyhead which was leaked on a Coachella forum. Whose to say, they probably did this on their own. There's no doubt that the released one is more fun and unique, but this one's pretty good too.

Apache Beat

This New York (where else?) collective take their name from Kraftwerk’s drummer’s phrase for the krautrock motorik rhythm. Their beats owe as much to Africa as Germany, while post-punk guitars and new wave synths make them everyones right hand and the endorsements from Klaxons cement their prospects of a very rosy future.

Passion Pit

"And everything is going to the beat."

If you dropeed by TBT as often as you ought to do, I've been talking about this group everytime I get the chance to. Starting life as just songwriter Michael Angelakos, Boston band Passion Pit pretty quickly have been winning the hearts, minds and feets of audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Their key track ‘Sleepyhead’ mixes Jack Kerouak samples, squeals, falsetto choruses and dreamy synths and is indicative of their electronic appropriation of multiple sounds to make a brilliant effect.

Micachu

Micachu is somewhat of Renaissance artist. Micachu is the moniker of major new talent, 21 year old songwriter and producer Mica Levi. She writes electronic pop songs, sometimes delivered acoustically.

Micachu - Golden Phone

Boy Crisis

Although drawn to the Brooklyn breeding ground for bands, Boy Crisis actually hails from Wesleyan University – whose alumni include cosmic crusaders MGMT and Amazing Baby. However, this 5-member group have chosen the sleazy electro path, and worked out a way to make desperate future/sex sounds danceable and enduring.

Boy Crisis - Dress to Disgress
Boy Crisis - Strawberries

Amazing Baby

Brooklynite psych pop collective Amazing Baby are an impossibly good looking bunch of neo-hippies. They’re currently label-less, but they’ve already conjured a whole sack of huge and skewed dreamscapes-ish songs, and with the likes of ‘Head Dress’ and ‘Supreme Being’ they’ve got enoughcredentials to float to MGMT-esque adoration.

Amazing Baby - Head Dress
