Yelle
This fun, french musician is the epitome of european pop music. She dresses in bright colors, rocks 80s styled clothes, and has an upbeat sound that will make you happy even on the greyest day. Don't worry if you can't understand what she's saying. Then again, she might inspire you to take up some French lessons. Try listening to her songs: Ce Jeu, A Cause Des Garcons, La Musique, or Safari Disco Club. You won't be disappointed!
Elle Goulding
Elle's music is often found remixed with a techno or dub sound. This is great music for a dance party or clubbing. If you need some tunes to party to try out: Starry Eyed (Dead CT Bounce Remix), The Writer (Alan Braxe Remix), Guns and Horses, or Lights. You'll feel like you're raging in a UK nightclub!
Smokey Robotic
This hip-hop/rock music will have you tapping your feet and jamming out! The Outside the Lines (Data Remix) has a fun beat along with their single Earthquake which truly captures their hip-hop qualities. Forever My Love is another song to dance to. Try them out and you won't take their playlist off repeat!
Boy Crisis
When I first L'Homme, I was hooked! And I'm always smitten with anything that sneaks in a little bit of French flair! Don't be fooled by their sound though, these kids are from the USA (Brooklyn to be exact!). If you're looking for a music video, try Dressed to Digress or Ganglion of Lightnings.
The Joy Formidable
This indie rock band from England plays at festivals such as SXSW in Austin, Texas. Turn them up while your in the car with the windows down and enjoy their unusual sound. Songs to try out include Whirring, Cradle, Austere, and While the Flies.
