Kennef Riggles

I was just thinking about all the folks who spent the last week spinning the "Best of 2012" sets at various venues and when this came in I wondered if I could narrow down my favorite tracks to just 2, as well as make sure that the tunes were actually released in 2012 . :P Here's what i came up with...

Of Monsters and Men - 'Little Talks'



Sounding something like the epic love child of Florence & the Machine and Mumford & Sons; this track just gives one a specific sort of energy that I love. I like my Indie with a quick tempo and lush lyrics... its quite excellent and definately a new favorite.

The Coup - 'Magic Clap'



A terribly infectious indie dance/hip hop tune, yeah it sounds a bit like Outkast in the delivery... but more musically compatible with 'Timebomb' by Beck... try the 2 back to back and see if you like it like that.

  1. Woa - The Coup song has such an infectuous rhythm - I was still tapping along after the song ended & had to play it again! :)

  2. Wow! Thanks, Kennef, for spreading "The Clap." After I heard it, I been spreading it myself. Awesome tune!
