Electronica Top Picks
Time for another update on the non lyric based music front. The following songs have limited vocals but are worthy of a little special attention.
I’m enjoying the music of A Scissors (Brian Michael Cunningham) and his latest EP Faster. As far as the songs go OneFourThree builds nicely and seems to feature a few video game sounds mixed in. Flours Part 1 is my favorite track so far, the mixed in vocals from Stranger than Fiction are great. I’ve put a sample below:
Lyric Sample:
I’m glad I caught you. I wanted to give you these.
Wait, you can give presents, but not receive them?
That sounds awfully inconsistent, Mr. Crick.Wait, I know, I’ll purchase them! Yeah, I’ll purchase them.
What are they? Flours.
What? I brought you flours.
Good Luck At The Gunfight has me hooked with their song Puma. I’m not sure the lyrics were taken from somewhere or just created from scratch? Most of the other songs they’ve got out right now are great as well and their official site has a fun mini-game at the bottom… check it out here.
Lyric Sample:
you still shine like you’re sixteen
don’t you miss the daydreams?
the sound of your heart beat
you’ll always be my prom queen.

Puma by Good Luck at the Gunfight kind of reminds me of Less Talk More Rokk by Freezepop and Flours Part 1 by A Scissors reminds me of Prisoners of the Sun by The Chameleons check em out.
