Just recently heard this cd, and i really like tracks like Get Innocuous, Someone Great, Sound Of Silver, i guess the dancier stuff...
But its the sorta indie/rock (?) element to it that makes it different so anyone got any suggestions for similar types of stuff to check out?
Thanks :D |

Cut Copy
Hot Chip
Any remix by Aeroplane
That should get you started off nicely... |

Holy Ghost!
Check out DFA Records, that's James Murphy's (aka LCD Soundsystem) label. |

| The Rapture and the Klaxons have a dancey/indie feel too, as does MGMT. Soulwax and Ewan Pearson remix a lot of these artists into more dancefloor oriented stuff too. |

yeah not mad on Hot Chip really, like some of their stuff. MGMT are good, not very dancy tho but still good.
Will check out the other recommendations, thanks all! |

| I looooove Sound of Silver. But as much as I love their music, I think LCD Soundsystem are even better DJs. |

| A criminally underrated group in my opinion is Bent. Check out their most recent album, "Intercept!" They're an electronica act with significant indie leanings. |

Interesting, I've never heard of them DJing. |

They did fabriclive 36 which was amazing, and I saw them in NYC last summer. Not technically proficient DJs by any means but it was a great party and they play awesome disco and funk. |

Yep, all a part of a series they've dubbed *Special Disco Versions*, which typically features either James Murphy (the front man for LCD) or Pat Mahoney (bandmember of LCD, and James' mate for years).
Sometimes the main man behind Hercules & Love Affair, Andy Butler, joins them on tour and to see ANY of these guys is a treat as their unique blend of disco, funk & spacey house music is quite refreshing. |

+1 to Cut/Copy and Hercules & Love Affair. They are both fantastic live.
Not as much of a fan of Hot Chip. Simian Mobile Disco can be hit or miss too. |
