Quirky Bondage Lady Alert: Natubella
Natubella reckons she sounds a bit like Goldfrapp, Madonna, Gwen Stefani, Robyn, The Knife and Ladytron all rolled into one. I would say she's not to far off there actually. Surfing through le Facebook, I was instantly intrigued in what this little Argentinian / Swedester has on offer with her new single "TDG".
The song is insanely bizarre yet utterly compelling. Take a look at the HQ video below and when she's not swinging that whip around you like a minx in heat, Natubella is seducing you with her serious electro, rock guitar and serving up latin flavoured musical tapas that will make you want to slip her twenty or something because you feel too naughty.
You just have to experience it for yourself - I'll be waiting to see what else this quirky lady has to offer when she's finished up her album which is in the process of being le finito. For now you can stalk her on MySpace.
Hmmm, "utterly bizarre", I'm not sure about that definition. I think I'm pretty sure I've seen and heard a lot of stuff like this - in fact this track is actually very reminiscent of Dragonette - which I feel like "you" (in quotes because Will is who I'm thinking about, but I don't know if Will is the author here... More Hot than HOT might not actually be Will, in fact my creeping suspicion is that it isn't) anyhow, "you" should know as you interviewed Dan recently and know their music... This song makes me think of True Believer...

PS Thanks for posting my last comment, it was harsh, so I wasn't sure you would. Me, I like to tell it like it is and I think that's what the old internets are for, but a lot of people disagree with me. So hey, thanks! And keep up the good work... though I am going to continue to harass you when I think I see faults. But only because I (just kind of, for now) love you. In an internet cyberspace sort of way. Okay, back to watching episodes of Gossip Girl and throwing diet coke at my monitor! Derrota! Get it together. Jeez.

Yeahokay - I think you're secretly posing as an undercover Dragonette operative - codename "Galore".
I like "TDG" - Natubella is fucking Fierce - with a capital F.
BTW - anything marked "by Will-W" is in fact, by Will W. I know it's hard to decipher the code when you got the Dragonette voices gigging in your head. Careful with the diet coke there, it leaves stains sometimes...
