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

SAINT ETIENNE "Words And Music By Saint Etienne" (2012)

Saint-Étienne: I love them since their first album "Foxbase Alpha" in 1991. I'm also a big fan of their 1998 "Good Humor" album. I was very anxious and excited to hear this new one. When the first track started I was like "Oh! This is going to be good". Then when I heard the second track I told myself "Ohhhh, I'm not sure anymore". THEN, this third track: another wow! So you see, this is the kind of album. Outstanding songs and so-so songs. It's really good but not equally good all the way.
