MSTRKRFT – Heartbreaker
For those that aren’t familiar with MSTRKRFT, they are two Canadian producers/DJ’s that make great electronic music and awesome remixes for groups like Wolfmother, Bloc Party and Death From Above 1979 (who one of the two members was in.) They just released their new album Fist of God a week ago and it has some great tracks on it and collaborations. The release party was held at the Roxy last Monday and I heard it was a great show, although I was too lame to leave the apartment and make it out due to a morally crippling weekend of partying. This track is with John Legend and is just an all around great track. Check out the song “It Ain’t Love” too and look them up playing Saturday at Coachella- should be an awesome set as they never disappoint and really get everyone going.
TV on the Radio – Ambulance
This is an old song but one of my favorites. One of the most beautiful yet simple and creative love songs of all time in my opinion. The vocal harmony and do whop feel of it really set it apart from a lot of other songs and continue to prove that TVOTR are one of the most original and innovative bands out there right now. Play this song often and enjoy.

I don’t know what it is about TV on the Radio. They make weird songs but the songs are great. I mean, listen to this track, that background “dum dum dum dum” is weird but the song is great. It’s just like the first track off their most recent album. Weird song, but absolutely great. Maybe I’m just the weird one.

You summed up ambulance perfectly. It is such a simple song, but it is incredible. The harmony, the doowop, the stuccato chorus – so tight.
They also have a sick doowoop version of Staring at the Sun. Last track on Desperate Youth, Bloodthirsty,
