Gerund Dance Attack

Leave it to Nouvelle Vague to transform the Billy Idol masturbation anthem turned wedding reception favorite into a breezy, Ragtime flavored ditty. "Dancing With Myself" is from the French new wave/ Bossa Nova project's forthcoming Bande A Part.

Mondo fave New Young Pony Club (thanks Dr. Maz) can apparently do no wrong. Despite having released only three singles for a total of six tracks (ok, and a remix), NYPC has already created more memorable songs than some bands do over the course of multiple albums. Check out their new B-side, the silly, infectious "Hiding on the Staircase." This one's a grower--I dare you to resist the weird charm of its rubbery bassline, kooky lyrics and tropical percussion. Love I say. It must be love.
