Goin’ Old School: Just Depeche Mode

Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia:

In light of Depeche Mode announcing their 2013 tour, to support a brand new album, yesterday, lets have a Depeche Mode Goin’ Old School’. Starting with People Are People from 1984.

My second favourite Depeche Mode track (the first being Strangelove, which we’ve already used on Goin’ Old School), 1985’s Shake the Disease.

And finally, because we’ve never featured it and it had to be done. 1989’s Enjoy the Silence. Easily one of the best songs ever written.

Lissi Dancefloor Disaster’s ‘Kill The Winner’ video + TobTok reMix

Here’s the video for crazy Swedish ElectroPop cat fanatics Lissi Dancefloor Disaster’s new single ‘Kill The Winner’, a synth rocking, sing-a-long infectious slice of quirk-Pop.

Tim Erem directs this slow-speed chase scene, a scenario wich perfectly fits the tune.

While you’re here check out fellow Swede TobTok’s reMix of the track. TobTok injects the track with a slick Disco edge which replaces the abrasive, almost avant-guarde sounds of the original with some rich, warm synths and a big room Disco vibe.

Marina And The Diamonds’ ‘How To Be A Heartbreaker’ video

So, here’s the new video from Marina And The Diamonds, How To Be A Heartbreaker. There’s been a lot of talk about it this week after her label (Warner Music, not 679 Artists) delayed it because they thought she looked ugly in it. Well, someone at Warner Music is obviously a fuckwit as, unsurprisingly, Marina looks smoking hot in the clip.

It’s one of the better songs on her second album too, one of the ones not ruined by Stargate’s big 90s Trance lead sounds.
