C&L's Late Nite Music Club with Miike Snow

By MaxMarginal Thursday Oct 22, 2009 7:00pm

Title: Animal

This song by Swedish/American triumvirate Miike Snow (it's the name of the band, and yes there are two I's in Miike) is all the rage with the kids these days and I feel like much less of a coot than I did in my last post for merely knowing it and posting it here.

Like much of today's music, this song broke wide open as a result of placements on television shows (mainly Gossip Girl), which after a few years of being the best source of income for songwriters and musicians (one spin on a popular television show nets the same as thousands of albums sold) is now become the best way to get exposure as well. When such fortune befalls a quality track like "Animal", it catches fire.

Apparently Airborne Toxic Event had their song Wishing Well in a Buick ad recently. I had no idea, but I'm glad the song is getting some airplay now.

Same thing with Matt and Kim. Their song Daylight was in a Bacardi commercial and Good Ol Fashion Nightmare was used in promos for that new show Community.

And the list could go on and on....

Same with T-Rex's "Children of the Revolution",

Howzit?
This band that Max gave us tonight seemed like, what I would call techno pop.
Here, try these folks out.
The Tao of Groove.

Hey muddy--

Thu, 10/22/2009 - 20:15 — fastfeat

Max's tune here isn't bad--not something I'd buy, but worth a listen.

I like this better. When did it come out?

Things are pretty good. Just drove from Atlanta to Orlando, kinda out of it today. Gotta hit it and get up early for work.

Hope all's well out west with ya. Heading out to San Luis Obispo in a few weeks.

And GO ANGELS!

Hey, I thought tonights selection wasn't half bad.

Thu, 10/22/2009 - 20:34 — mudshark

Pretty good actually. I'm open to all kinds of music.
As for the Tao of Groove. I don't know. I just stumbled on them recently. Here's another Tao of Groove tune.

I'm still getting into these folks.
SLO huh? Great night life there downtown at the brewery.
Great live shows.

OOO a Late night music thread, weeee
