Finally - Some Decent Music in 2008
About 2 weeks ago I purchased Kaskade - Strobelight Seduction from the Amazon MP3 store. Its been a really off year for downtempo dance music. The Aromabar and Supreme Beings of Leisure albums are way too downtempo. This Kaskade album is perfect though.
Also for a nostalgic good time take a listen to the Was Not Was - Boo! album. Its a nice jazzy rock album. There are some great videos up on YouTube from live shows you can check out. With all the 80’s bands putting out new releases - most of which are a miss - these guys bring it back to basics and it works really well.
The new Moby is really good too. I tend to shy away from Moby albums because, while they may have a “theme”, the music is so varied that usually what you want are the choice singles because they come with remixes. This album is all really good though.
