'sup guys! I have a radio show on my college's radio station, WOZQ!

My show is going to be focused around some bitchin' cool electric tunes. I'm trying to steer away from just plain dance/techno music and will be playing a lot of trip hop/synthpop/chiptunes/trance/etc. I have my first show next Wednesday, 10am-12pm.

Two hours is a long time, and I don't know if I have enough music right now to do two hours for the rest of the semester, so I'm calling out for help -- do you guys have anything I should play? Any bands/groups I should check out?

To tune into my show, livestream us here: http://131.229.129.144:8000/listen

pretty much every artist I listed has a release (or several) in the past few months

a few more good swedish bands like the knife, that aren't as electronic, but are still def. electronic:

Lykke Li - single swedish girl, pretty much electronic indie music. my favorite song by her is Breaking It Up

Love Is All - an awesome swedish band, definitely check out Felt Tip. Another good one is Make Out Fall Out Make Up.

and if you haven't heard this song by the knife, you should definitely check it up:
We Share Our Mother's Health

really great.

and then some other, non-swedish, people:

House of House is currently the best recent disco I know of. Rushing to Paradise is a really amazing song, you should check it up

all of the valerie artists have new releases pretty often. Xinobi, anoorak, minitel rose, etc. are part of valerie

Symbol One is a really good unsigned artist. if you look at his friends you'll find a lot of other really good unsigned artists...they probably won't mind you using their music, just send them a message or something telling them you are. they're usually not as busy as larger artists and will reply.

these are some really electro songs but they were released on the kitsune label within the last 6 months..you may or may not like them haha

Autokratz - "Stay The Same"
Digitalism - Taken Away (Instrumental)
I kinda like the one with words better though
Streetlife DJs - We Love The Disco Sound (even though the song name has the word disco in it, this song is electro haha)
Beni - My Love Sees You
also Heartsrevolution's Switchblade EP, which is pretty good.

Popular Computer released the Lost and Found EP within the past 6 months I think

SebastiAn released his Motor EP, and the CD SebastiAn remixes, within the past 6 months. You should check out:
Motor, Golden Skans (SebastiAn Remix), Fool For Love (SebastiAn Remix), Sexual Sportswear (SebastiAn Remix)

also Justice's entire live set was released recently, and it's pretty awesome.
track 13 - We Are Your Friends (Reprise) is really awesome, and people would probably recognize it from the original.



...yes
