Best of 2010 - EPs!!!

Oh EPs, so short, so sweet...and 10 of you are the sweetest of 2010!!!

10. Cause & Effect - Artificial Contruct Part One
Surprised to hear these guys are still going at it and making sophist-synth-pop.

9. Hari and Aino - All That Remains
Just sweet indie pop.

8. The Dø - Dust It Off
Haven't had enough time to really register this, but I know it's good!

7. The Hundred in the Hands - This Desert
They opened for The Golden Filter this year and it was lovely. So is this EP! Nice electro, nice!

6. Summer Camp - Young
These relatively new cats are quite the catch! Lovely harmonies...do hear their cover of "Christmas Wrapping" if you get a chance. It's bliss!

5. The Superions - The Superions
Fred Schneider has always been very dear to me and it's music like this that makes it so. "Who Threw That Ham at Me" & the remix of "Totally Nude Island" by The Lolligags are superb!

4. Twin Sister - Colour Your Life
Having one of 2010's best pop songs, this young band is already working their way deep into my soul!

3. Wallenberg - Red in the House of White
Formed in Italy, residing in Sweden, the Swedish influence is ever present in this pop mastery!

2. Little Majorette - Bite the Bullet EP
Ahhhh, so near perfection..."Let's Get Drunk" and my current ringtone "Bite the Bullet" are the two super stand out tracks, but you have two others that really showcase some pop loveliness. Unfortunately, there's the just ok "London" right in the middle to keep this nugget from perfection!

1. CLASS ACTRESS - JOURNAL of ARDENCY!!!
Number one by far...holding two of my Top 34 songs of 2010, this is one of the break-out artists of 2010! She puts on a great live show too. I even had a dream about her last night and she was awesome! Her voice is rad, the synthpop beats make you dancedancedance, and when she slows it down, you get all sultry and ooooh, she's good! Get this!!!
