The Magician, KeeMo

While everyone is going batshit crazy over Gangnam Style, I am re-discovering The Magician. This is the guy who made Lykke Li’s I Follow Rivers a huge hit last summer.

He has a lot of original stuff as well as remixes, but he is best known for his Magic Tape series:

One of his tracks stands out to me: Memories

Plus we have a Greek track that kind of stands out: KeeMo feat. Cosmo Klein – Beautiful Lie

Finnebassen & ColeCo

FinnebassenI just discovered Finnebassen. This guy is just awesome. Perfect soundtrack for the discerning beachbar-phile.

Current hit:

ColeCo -  El Verano EPAlso an excellent Nu-Disco outfit: ColeCo. It appears that these guys are from Canada and usually do pool parties. Go figure. But that doesn’t matter since I friggin’ love their music!!

They just put out an EP that is just a joy to listen to: [soundcloud url=”http://api.soundcloud.com/playlists/2047823″ params=”” width=” 100%” height=”450″ iframe=”true” /]

Plus they have a load of excellent mixes up on SoundCloud, the Arcade series:
