Tegan + Sara ///////

Yeah ok, I know by this time you've all probably downloaded this leak if you're into this duo but tough luck, I'm posting about it anyway....

I haven't been able to listen to all of Tegan & Sara's latest album, The Con, but I've been impressed by the stuff I've heard so far. It's a little different from 'So Jealous' but still has that very distinctive T&S sound.

So far, so good... you should check them out.

A Plus D:

Just a quick post today. Found what I think is a pretty nifty mash-up of The Cure's 'Close to You' and Robyn's 'Konichiwa Bitches' by A Plus D. I've always loved The Cure so this one is pretty high up on the charts for me.

Close to Konichiwa - A Plus D

Standing in the Way of Connection (The Gossip vs. Elastica) - A Plus D

Check out these crazily amazing mash-up artists, Djs Adrian & the Mysterious D (A Plus D) at their site:

Vampire Weekend ///////

Formed in early 2006, Vampire Weekend is an indie band from NY manufacturing the catchiest pop beats out there at the moment. A quartet comprising of four guys in their early 20s, I have no doubt their fan base is going to sky-rocket sometime very soon.

Essentially one of the best bands of 2007.

[Highly Recommended] Vampire Weekend - Oxford Comma
Vampire Weekend - Walcott (Insane Mix #2)
