Cut Copy – ‘So Cosmic’ mix (mp3)

Soooo apparently I’m the only one who’s been missing out on this mix that Cut Copy made and released for download. It’s a selection of new songs and old songs that has inspired Cut Copy in making their new yet to be released album. There’s a lot of ’80s dance songs and disco beats, and I’m not that excited hearing the new songs being mixed in and out of the set. Still, looking foward to their album since the first one was such a grower.

Pnau – ‘Baby’

The hot industry story this week is that while Elton John was in the country to do his Rocket Man tour, he chanced upon hearing a Pnau song, fell in love with it, and instructed his husband to buy 40 copies of PNAU‘s third album so he can send them off to his musician friends back in England and urged record label types around the world to get involved with this album. A modern fairy tale? Perhaps. But I finally received a copy of this album and I have to say it’s really fresh. It is really very creative and sound different from any other Australian releases around and can do really well overseas if pushed the right way. There are a few tracks that I could feature here, but I picked the one with the childlike sing-a-long vocals. This track blend nicely into the next one on the album ‘We Have Tomorrow’. There are numerous other guest vocalists on this album like Nik Valentinos and Luke Steele of the Sleepy Jackson, won’t be too long before we blog those.

Sparkadia – ‘Animals’

Sparkadia’s new song has been getting a flogging on national broadcaster Triple J, this recording a result of their recent trip to the UK to record an album with Ark Recordings. It’s well recorded and easy on the ears but I don’t really find it as catchy as their older songs, which I really hope are rerecorded and saved as future singles for the album.
