The emerging indie electro scene has really been doing it for me lately. It mixes the fundamental production values of electronic music with some of the more mainstream appeal of indie music, like lyrics, for example :)

One of my favorite songs is "Cold Dust Girl" by an artist called "Hey Champ" that I can't seem to find anything about (bar a few songs on the Hype Machine). Friendly Fires, who's more well known, also has some pretty cool stuff too, as well as Cut Copy.

Hey Champ - Cold Dust Girl

Friendly Fires - Paris

Cut Copy - Lights & Music

 
 

Here are a few more songs I've been getting into lately.

Chromeo

Think 80s spirit with modern electronic production. A fun album to get in to.

Chromeo - Mamma's Boy

Chromeo - Tenderoni

Chromeo - Bonafied Lovin' (Yuksek Remix)

More Justice

I'm still finding obscure Justice remixes and new music on the hype machine that kick ass. Two of the latest:

MGMT - Electric Feel (Justice Remix)

Keedz / Justice - Stand on the World

 
 

Since their concert in San Francisco a few months ago, I've been getting more and more into Justice. Stumbled across both of these sets -- a bit rough around the edges, but I've been listening to both non-stop for the past two weeks.

Update: and while I'm at it, here's two more Justice-themed tracks. The first is a remix of Justice's D.A.N.C.E., and the second is a remix by Justice of Love Stoned.
