90 or so minutes of mostly electropop tunes! All awesome ones too, and certainly represents well my inclination towards slightly more pop-oriented but still alternative-influenced electronic music.
And yes, the Solange here is THE Solange Knowles which everyone may know as Beyoncé's younger sister. She's got an awesome EP (True) on Terrible Records by the way, the New York-based independent label which Empress Of, Le1f, and Chairlift's Caroline Polachek (Ramona Lisa) is also signed to, and I've played a track from there.
Also, I got a request! Thanks Joe for making the request for the Humans classic 'Bike Home'! It's from their 2010 EP Avec Mes Mecs. I believe Joe worked on a couple Humans videos, so I was quite excited to get a call from him. :D
Next week will be quite different. I won't be sticking to electropop...it's a special occasion so I'll be genre-hopping. Get excited!
Also, doesn't 'ninety minutes' just roll off your tongue easier than 'one-and-a-half-hour' or 'one-point-five hours'? :P
