muna - i know a place
LA based indie pop group muna have come up with an insta-catchy anthem that you'll be bopping along to within seconds. this gem of a song takes on a more powerful meaning once you know that it was written with the LGBTQ community in mind. inclusive never sounded so good!

WONGIE ELECTRO POP SONG OF THE WEEK: prides - higher love

prides - higher love
honestly the 80's celebratory synth pop song by these scottish lads speaks for itself! with only a few EP's under their belt, the trio are heading over stateside for a mini tour before going back to the UK summer festival circuit. i'm sure we'll be hearing alot from them in the coming months... and that makes me happy!

this synth pop gem is just perfect to lose yourself to. with their surprisingly raw bored youth/post summer video, this is a brooklyn act that should be on your radar. nice one.

dillon francis feat t.e.e.d. - without you
what a nice gentle song with beats! dj dillon francis does the smart collaboration thing by getting orlando higginbottom (aka t.e.e.d.) to provide the sweet vocals to dillon's electronic aesthetic. nice one.

like their previous single (and wongie fave of 2012) "northern lights", the buildup to the synth symphony is just perfect! so far it's 2 for 2 for this seemingly anonymous swedish electro pop outfit! love them!

[we tipped this as a song of the week back in jan and now we offer up the official video for the hot NYC duo mndr. definitely going the avant garde route with their visuals, amanda warner and peter wade are hopefully going to break through their hipster status and generate some serious love outside the manhattan scene. i dig them, so should you!]
