I've been wanting to fall in love with an album for the last 4 months and nothing has really done it for me. Both of these albums have recently blown me away. (so I feel the need to share lol)
...................................
Calvin Harris - I Created Disco
- Honestly WOW. This guy is like Mylo but x10. So many classic, brilliant dance tracks. His sense of humour + great voice + killer beats = best dance album of the year (imo). Although it should have been made 3 years ago (the electro keys aren't as fresh anymore) it's still a well produced album you'll listen to 6 million times.
1. Merrymaking at My Place <- so good
2. Colours <- ing hysterical
3. This Is the Industry
4. Girls <- WOWOW
5. Acceptable in the 80s
6. Neon Rocks
7. Traffic Cops
8. Vegas
9. I Created Disco
10. Disco Heat <- HOLY WOW
11. Vault Character
12. Certified
13. Love Souvenier
14. Electro Man
FEIST - The Reminder
- She's kind of a mix between Rufus Wainwright and Bjork... wow what a talent. Apparently she's Canadian too lol Why not, love her.
1. So Sorry
2. I Feel It All
3. My Moon My Man
4. The Park
5. The Water <- as classic as "stairway to heaven", just wow
6. Sealion
7. Past In Present
8. The Limit To Your Love
9. 1234
10. Brandy Alexander
11. Intuition
12. Honey Honey
13. How My Heart Behaves

I love Leslie Feist. FYI, she's in the band Broken Social Scene.
From her first album, one of my faves:
She also covered the Bee Gees' 'Inside and Out' on the same album. <3 <3

Calvin Harris is indeed all kinds of awesomeness...'Girls' has been on high rotation on my playlists, and 'Merrymaking At My Place' is such a fun party tune! (espeially the deadmau5 remix ;))

when i saw her play mushaboom at the juno's i was hooked. the girl has a freaking incredible voice, great lyrics, and is quirky to boot. artists like her need and deserve more attention. great thread!

Feist is amazing. Mushaboom hooked me as well. And seeing her play life is amazing...her voice has such control over the crowd.
Will definitely look into Calvin Harris though!

Even more than Kate Bush or Imogen Heap?

That new ipod nano commercial is fast destroying my appreciation of Feist. F*ck, am I ever sick of that commerical/song ("1, 2, 3, 4")...
Regardless, Broken Social Scene > Feist.
