I don’t know why the beginning of this song makes me think I should be riding on the back of Falkor flying through the skies of Fantasia.(To give you a visual, I’ve included a bad or awesome photoshop job of me riding Falkor. You decide if it’s bad or awesome) When I saw the name Join the Riot, I thought this was going to definitely be something that I didn’t like. Guess you can’t judge a book by its cover. The EP is made up of dancey and smooth grooves that make you want to lounge or dance. I chose this song just because of my NeverEnding Story vision also when I read the lyrics it touch a soft spot. I know, I’m strange. Visual First:

Now the song:

Put on my radar by my awesome Twitter pal Andrew Leigh, Tussilago is a perfect treat for a sleepy Saturday or a rainy day.  As a lover of shoe gaze, I instantly enjoyed their songs. Also, I have to comment that they are strikingly attractive and that their drummer is Lykke Li’s brother. Thanks Andrew!

I can give credit to a few people for me liking this band. There is only so much Swedish pop music you guys can take before you get bored. I also want to show how eclectic my taste really is.  So here is something different. Here’s a playlist for your listening pleasure. You can thank me later.

oh here’s another that I love!

Took me a few listens but I am really digging this. Makes me want to dance, and as we know I love dancing. There has to be something in the water in Sweden to where they generate so much awesome electro pop.

Sweet cutesy twee vocals. I was ho humming my way around one day and I stumbled upon this. Sooo cute!

Kate Boy reminds me of the Knife and it makes me want to dance like a banshee around my apartment. I love moody synth heavy electro pop!

This song makes me happy! I’m absolutely in love with it. It’s magical, adorable and simply gorgeous.

I am completely jealous of those(and Brother Oblivious cause he’s going in Cali) seeing Röyksopp & Robyn on August 20th because I really want to drink a little and dance to this on the Hudson.

I’ve fallen in love with Ji Nilsson since I heard her duet with Marlene. I was excited to find out she released an official video and I absolutely love the song too. And I am stepping away from the dream pop to give you some dancey pop.

Only fond memories of when I lived in Los Angeles of this song. I use to listen to it on repeat, there is something about it that just makes me smile and dance.
