A Mouthful of Diamonds

Mouthful of Diamonds by Phantogram(download here) (Buy from Amazon) One of the better songs to groove to that i’ve heard in a while. If you need to do some trivial task at work. Put this song on and it’ll become infinitely better.

Loud Pipes

Loud Pipes by Ratatat (download here) (Buy from Amazon) Just a funky little instrumental by the rowdy NYC electronic music duo. It’s got a good beat and sort of jams.

Laura

Laura by Scissor Sisters (download here) (Buy from Amazon) These guys (and gal) came on the scene hard in 2004 with some disco, glam and club music, and although they followed it up with a some weaker albums, their debut remains super solid. This is one of the lesser-known tracks from that.

Twenty Questions

Twenty Question by The Beastie Boys (download here) (Buy from Amazon) I love the Beasties because they are pretty versatile. They do cool instrumentals, some rock, some country, and some rap. This tune is their only (as far as i know) Brazilian tune and it’s a chill-out bouncy little tune. Enjoy
