Listen To "Hurtful" by Erik Hassle - Penguin Prison Remix

You know, I thought that nothing could touch the original version of Erik Hassle's "Hurtful", but this new remix by Penguin Prison has given the track a very cool chilled-out ultra loungy vibe.

I quite like it - check it out!

This Is Not A Paid Advertisement - Lady Gaga's New Album "The Fame Monster" Is OUT on Monday

Oh yes, as if you needed another reminder, Lady Gaga's groundbreaking sophomore album "The Fame Monster" is out on Monday.  I've been listening to it for about a week now and it's really good stuff.  Every track is a gem, not a corker in the lot and that's what I come to expect and love from Lady Gaga.

Now if only my deluxe edition would get here...I'm dying to tack my lock of Gaga's wig up on my bedroom wall...

FREE Download: Bertie Blackman "Thump" Remix By The Dirty Disco

 Bertie blackman

Rising star Bertie Blackman has been collaborating with The Dirty Disco on a remix for her track "Thump" which has given the track a whole new life altogether - I actually prefer the remix to the more rockier original, it's got a Frankie Goes To Hollywood feel to it which makes it seriously enjoyable for even the most discerning electronic music lover.

Download it for free below and check out the edgy sounds of Bertie Blackman on MySpace.

MySpace Discovery: Listen To "I Love You Too" By Haberdashery

 L_8deff4f680ed398f4774de37536c3d56

This has to be the most beautiful electronic ballad I've heard in a very long time time...

Take a listen to "I Love You Too" by Chicago-based Haberdashery.  There is something about this song that is just so beautiful, sweet, sincere, honest and simple - it gave me a case of the goosebumps upon the first listen.  The video too is quite unique as well - genius in it's execution yet still very endearing for being totally handmade.  

More Haberdashery on MySpace - but in the meantime, you can bet I'll be listening to this song on repeat for many months to come...

Who knew that Edward Cullen had an electro-pop relative in the family?...

Check out the hot new video from Temposhark's new single "Bye Bye Baby" which hits digital outlets this Monday - November 23rd!  The video is so electro-goth and I love it!  This is definitely Temposhark's most ambitious music video to date and it's a real pleasure to see Rob Diament and company getting into character in celebration of the new single from the soon to be released album - "Threads".

And speaking of the 23rd, Monday is THE day for new electro-pop music isn't it?  When you are out there buying "The Fame Monster" by Lady Gaga and "For Your Entertainment" by Adam Lambert, don't forget to download Temposhark's "Bye Bye Baby" as well!
