Your Song (Elton John Cover) - Ellie Goulding

SYL Week Playlist 29.11.2010

For this weeks playlist I did something different. A lot of people have been complaining of files not playing on itunes so I decided this format might change that. Its also better cause now u can pick and choose the songs and not have me dictating what you have to download. Add Me on Facebook and Follow Me on Twitter so u can let me know what you think.

If you haven't heard the genius that is Juango Davalos, I dont blame you. On the other hand, if I ask you that same question after u read this post and the answer is still the same, then please go *%!@ Urself...HARD!

Lots of great artists coming out the Dominican Republic and making a name for themselves, Juango is definitely on the top of that list. With his  last effort, Un Niño Antiguo, he cemented the foundation of what I hope is an electro pop uprising.

Enough with the rhetoric, enjoy a couple of his songs and come Friday and support the cause.

It's not everyday you can see one of the most celebrated indie acts of the year, so the fact that Phantogram will be playing for free @ Fellini Ristorante is an epic event that should not be taken lightly.I first talked about Phantogram way back in March for the SYL 1.3.2010 playlist and I never imagined that they would ever play here. Thanks to the people who made this happen as well as the people who have supported this blog day in and day out. The main purpose of this site will and always be providing good music  for good people. Now lets take it one step further and really enjoy the hell out of it.

Here are a couple of tracks as well as some most excellent remixes by Phantogram from their eponymous effort "Eyelid Movies". 

 As Far As I Can See - Phantogram

Mouthful Of Diamonds (Alan Wilkis Remix) - Phantogram

I L U (Phantogram Remix) - School Of Seven Bells
