Ladytron: Runaway
This may not be my favourite Ladytron track ever, but just about anything they do is fine by me!

Ben Folds: Hiroshima
From his new album, initially I wasn’t such a big fan of this first single… however it’s grown on me. Reportedly recorded on the back of a “Rock this Bitch” in Germany, it’s no “Brick”, but very tongue in cheek… just why we love Ben.

Lykke Li: Breaking Up
I’ve fallen in love with this Swedish lovely recently, and this video just adds to my love of her. Looking a bit 80’s, it compliments the song perfectly.

Vampire Weekend: Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa
Since a friend introduced me to the wonder of Vampire Weekend, I’ve been in awe of them, and this summery tune and the video just makes me wish the rain wasn’t here so much!
