the ting tings - silence (bag raiders remix)
[gosh i sure hope they release this remix as the official single cause it is a-MAH-zingly lush! a thousand times better than their almost unlistenable first single 'hang it up', my interest is slowly returning to these guys!]

[i can say this cause i've been a fan of the group since december, but there's something cheerleader-ish about the songs of the ting tings don't you think? thank goodness katie white and jules de martino are hotties, if not, i would have placed them on my 'bored now' train awhile ago...]

[FINALLY, the follow up to the awesome 'great dj' song, which ironically is the song that introduced the ting tings to many folks in the first place. no issue here since 'that's not my name' still gives me happy vibes 5 months after the fact! with their debut album we started nothing coming out in may, 'great dj' being featured as the free song of the week on itunes (starting tomorrow!) AND they provide the song to the new ipod campaign, looks like the ting tings are onto big big tings this summer! (sorry couldn't resist). thanks to zeon for the tip]

on the radar 2008: the ting tings - great dj

[when the list of 2008 buzz acts came out a few weeks back, it was like a who's who of weird names thrown at you (jing jang jong meets the foals meets alphabeat meet ebony something or the other). of course, i took a listen to the acts on these tastemakers lips and of the post pop genre, the ting tings stood out the most to me. made up of manchester based katie white and jules de martino, the duo have quickly won fans over with their uber catchy and happily danceable 80's-esque songs. my fave song of the week, turn it up and jump around kids!!]
