Passion Pit
« on: November 05, 2009, 13:32:18 PM »
I love this lot. If you like ridiculously happy electronic tinkering and don't mind a squeaky vocal give them a go. They have a (fairly) recent debut Long Player "Manners" to follow up their EP "Chunk of Change". Have posted links to a few tracks from both:

I like unusual vocals which explains why I can often be found dancing about grinning like a fool but interested to see what others reckon.

Smile Upon Me (EP) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pp0mNFr1iNw
Sleepyhead (EP) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EvKk7RbphE
Little Secrets (LP) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxL9Hod_qCY

Let me know what you think...

Hmmmmm, not sure tbh. I love electronic music but not sure about this. The first track Smile Upon Me sounds a bit Orbital I reckon.

Ha! I like lots of crazy stuff :D Stuffs headphones on and dances around some more.  :)

Just realised the sound quality on the EP versions is absolutely shocking. :tickedoff: Better off listening to on Spotify if you have such a thing.

Har! Knew that was what I meant to post. Teach me to post stuff at work when I can't listen to them check first!! They're an acquired taste I'll admit that.
