Earlier we gave you a taste of Cut Copy's first song Need You Now from their new CD Zonoscope. Here's the video which is what we expected and kind of not what we expected from them. It's quirky and awkward and full of athletic aspirations...

BETH DITTO "I WROTE THE BOOK"

We admit to posting many of the songs of Beth Ditto's EP Deconstruction. This is the woman and the music everyone needs to be focusing their attention towards in 2011. This song, I Wrote the Book, is by far the one song that can easily do well with the dance/pop genres, so let's hope the people give it go. 

MEN "WHO AM I TO FEEL SO FREE"

MEN, the trio from brooklyn have finally released their first single, Who Am I to Feel So Free, which is from their new CD, Talk  About Body.  It says so much more than other recent songs about independence and individuality and the video is well....just watch.

CHIDDY BANG "REBEL"

In great expectations of their new release Swelly Life, here's a new song Rebel.  We're sure this only a dose of what is to come.
