IAMAMIWHOAMI "Kin" (2012)

Seems like I've knowed her for years (O.K., months) because one of my employee was following each one of her steps on her mysterious (and amazing) YouTube music videos. I wish she would've released her album before...I'm afraid she missed a big wave. But hey, finally we can taste her music. Another addition in the big family of women-electro-pop. But again, when it's good you can't refuse. Synths are great (Good Worker), liking the original voice and the moody ambiance (Play) and I like that 80's influence. It's a keep in my Rdio collection.

My favorite tracks in order:

• Good Worker
• Drops
• Idle Talk
• Goods

FRIENDS "Manifest!" (2012)

Yeah! Yeah! I know. It makes you think of this and that, seems like déjà vu. We can't always reinvent the wheel and, this ain't copycat either. Now, who can resist to these infectuous songs? I can't.

My favorite tracks in order

• Sorry
• Ideas Of Ghosts
• I'm This Girl
• Va Fan Gör Du

SCISSOR SISTERS "Magic Hour" (2012)

Don't we need a good Dance-Pop album? This is what we need. They've done it again. Infectious chorus, infectious beats. Makes you wanna dance and sing. (I just wonder why they put "Baby Come Home" as their first song...not representavite and little boring to introduce this album.) Many great songs here: "Keep Your Shoes", "Inevitable", "Year Of Living Dangerously", "Let's Have A Kiki" (So gay, so Drag Queen; love it!), "Shady Love", "Self Control" (O.K., it sounds like Robin S). This album is way beyond my expectations. Pump up the volume!

My favorite tracks in order:

• Let's Have A Kiki
• Shady Love
• Year Of Living Dangerously
• Keep Your Shoes
• Inevitable

KIMBRA "Vows" (2011)

She's got a cool jazzy timber in her voice. The music is good Electropop bonbon with some retro-soul touch (Cameo Lover, Good Talent). I'm liking the 80's Synthpop "Warrior", a little different from the rest of the album. Good for ears, good for the soul.

SANTIGOLD "Master Of My Make-Believe" (2012)

I wasn't expecting this album to be better than 2008 "Santogold" first album. I was happy to hear that she raised the bar higher to give an album with more adventurous beats, even more catchy and still being; Santigold. Yep, this will end in my 2012 favorites!
