When you start to feel like Bill Murray waking up each day in that film - every time you turn on the radio - you know the Black Eyed Peas have become too successful. That said - that 'feeling' song was a bit of an anthem in Ibiza. I've given you most of the good edits. So cross your fingers and hope that Punxsutawney Pam pops out of her ho-home and sees her shadow - otherwise we might be hearing Fergie forever. Plenty of other joints in there too. Enjoy...

The good people of Trashbags Kids have turned us on to Barretso a Chilean artist that have created some really amazing Nu-Disco remixes from Astro, Justice, and Monomen. Astro - Hongo Atomic(Barretso Remix) Monoment - Drum of Glass (Barretso Remix) Justice - We are your friends (Barretso Remix) [...]
Barretso is based in Chile - and that's actually everything we know about him. Of course next to that what we can acquire for ourselves - his skills in remixing! And in fact that's already everything we really need to know. Monomen , Astro and Justice are the acts that he was heart hard enough to remix. Although this must be version no. 2.614.981 of "We Are Your Friends" and nobody here at TFL HQ wants to listen this track not even for a second anymore, we [...]
Actually there won't be much checking (and even less writing) tonight, as I'm far too tired to do anything, except having a beer and watching yet another episode of Midsomer Murders . But I really should do the mail checking more often on Friday evenings, because the 50 (or more) mails I worked my way through last night had only been replaced by 5 this morning. I know this is (essentially) explained by the promotion agents being off for the weekend, but still it makes me feel that I really accomplished something! But [...]

Monomen is a Norwegian new wave/electronica band from the small suburban area Sørumsand, outside of Oslo. Formed by former classmates Kristian Rangnes, Kim Skråmo, Tobias Kristiansen and Vidar Torget, the young quartet shows its affection for 80's post-punk and new wave through a bunch of infectious tracks that bring to mind The Chameleons , Joy Division , Magazine , New Order , Depeche Mode and Devo . After releasing an EP on Oslo label Trust Me Records in 2006, Monomen returned with their self-titled debut album a year later. Filled [...]

I love good new wave/dancerock music and Monomen play just that. Check out the infectious track "Drum of Glass" which takes all of the good stuff from the British new wave era of the 1980's and makes one killer track. The Norwegian quartet is just a rush of energy from the driving beat to the sweeping vocals this track remains one of the freshest things I have heard from Norway in...ever??? They released their album Monomen LP back in 2007 but it's not like it has seen any light of day here in the states. They have made a few [...]

Our favorite Norwegians Monomen just released a new track on their MySpace page here . The track is called Polaroid . Hopefully this is a sign of a new album in the works? The guys have been quiet for quite some time. If you are not familiar with the band make sure you listen to Drum Of Glass as well. We can't express enough love and lust for this track. Pure goodness.
