Having these songs on your iPod might make you almost as cool as me: <\/p>\n
“In the City<\/a>” by Chromatics: Hypnotic, synth-driven pop that you want playing in your car as you drive home from a party late at night, sleepy and maybe a little stoned. I have no idea what the lead singer is going on about when she sings of “shining violence, shining victim”, but I don’t really care. <\/p>\n “With Every Heartbeat<\/a>” by Robyn: A Swedish artist with a knack for crafting pop songs that don’t make adults cringe, Robyn uses strings and drum machines to dramatic effect in this song about a failed relationship that will have you crying on the dancefloor.<\/p>\n “Distant Dreamer<\/a>” by Duffy: Rounding out today’s set is this bit of power pop from another British artist fond of that classic diva sound from the era of transistor radios. She demonstrates more of a vocal range and mastery of style than Amy Winehouse, especially in this soaring orchestral track.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Having these songs on your iPod might make you almost as cool as me: “In the City” by Chromatics: Hypnotic, synth-driven pop that you want playing in your car as you drive home from a party late at night, sleepy and maybe a little stoned.
