Tape Recorder

Posts about Fan Death have been popping up lately and the disco-pop group is a blogosphere favorite at the moment. Fan Death offers free download, Veronica`s Veil is available for download on Fan Death´s MySpace page. Check it out, disco-pop with string arrangements sounds pretty much always good!

If Madonna was “Wow” yesterday, Hercules & Love Affair were “Now”. Their disco is small scale, but very modern day and right at the moment. Tape Recorder saw Hercules & Love Affair yesterday in Helsinki and found them much more interesting live than on record. The personality and all the nuances of their music came across on stage. There was no need for guest vocalist Antony Hegarty, when singers Nomi and Kim Ann Foxman took the stage and showed what disco and house looks like now.

Hercules & Love Affair are responsible for one of the best singles this year - Blind. Listen to Blind sung by Antony Hegarty below:

The new Hercules & Love Affair video You Belong is very stylish and artistic. Just like the previous Blind video. But when Blind was about Greek mythology, You Belong video is futuristic and new wave.
