Ahhh, good to be back. And not only am I back, but I'm also armed with an arsenel of new music, some of it with a Euro-flavor from my travels, but most following my new love for the trend of electro-indie-pop-whatever-makes-me-dance music. For my first post of the new year, I debated whether to go with something totally obscure for the sake of street cred and appearing cool... or to go with something a bit more traditional, but something that I've listened to over 60 times in the past month (source: iTunes, which only gives you credit for a listen if you go up to the last 10 seconds of the song - therefore, I've easily listened to this song over 100 times because of my habit of never listening to a full song).
"That Beep" combines catchy lyrics, danceable beats and a music video that would make the Blue Man Group proud. I played this song so much that my roommate would walk around singing "beep beep beep beep beep", even though he admitted tremendous hate for the song. Listen, absorb, and dance to the wonders of Architecture in Helsinki.
