My formative years were spent in the 80's with foundational bands like New Order, Depeche Mode, Echo & the Bunnymen, The Cure, and Jane's Addiction. Even though the 80's was the pioneer decade for the alternative genre, this music transcended into the 90's and to some cool tunes today which could be classified as alternative. Hopefully, this site will bring back some good memories and introduce some things you haven't heard before.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Enjoy.

'Pharaohs & Pyramids' by Cut Copy

Album: Zonoscope

Released: 2011
Theme: alternative electronica

Man, this one has all the makings of a classic off their new album. On the CD, the tune changes tempo - I love that, especially when things keep getting better.

Unfortunately, the embedded sound track is a remix which doesn't do it justice. If I can find the original I will gladly re-post.

    you can hear the change up at about mid song. That's intense and so is the author of this blog. I wonder if he's available to hook up.
