Arcade Fire feat. Mavis Staples - I Give You Power

A scary day today.  Arcade Fire released this track in conjunction with the likely (but hopefully not) horror that's befallen the world.
Is it great?  No.  Does it give me the feels?  Yes.  And that's the whole point folks.  Plus, Mavis Staples...come on!!!

The European - I'm Compromising (Soft Regime Mix)

Sadly, I'd never heard of The European until last week when I was looking up latest Elefant Records group, Soft Regime.  This is the first track from The European that I played and I was instantly enamored.  His album "In a Very Real Sense Now" is quite lovely and features the original version of this track amongst other gems!

Ainjel Emme - Hello World

This track is pretty old but I heard it for the first time on Sunday when Rockyboo put our record player back into commission after some months on the DL.  The track is from the very cute Hello Kitty "Hello World" compilation that was originally released back in 2009, then reissued as an AWESOME vinyl picture disc for last year's Record Store Day.  Of course, based on cuteness level alone, I purchased the vinyl having no idea what was in store.  This track is the star of the show!!  Definitely my early theme song for 2017!  HELLO WORLD AND HELLO KITTY!!
