Well, I think that 2008 is shaping up to be a pretty solid year for music. As much as I loved the stuff that was coming out last year, I'll be the first to admit that a lot of it turned into a bit of a cluster-fuck of over saturation and hype. However, from what I'm seeing so far, people are regrouping and using the lessons learned and crafting some really solid tracks. Now I know that this song has been getting a lot of coverage in the blog world lately, but I think that some bandwagons are worth jumping on. Little boots is the current side project of London resident and former Dead Disco singer Victoria. She's just finished recording her debut album in LA with Greg from the Bird and the Bee. It would seem that she's made all the right friends because her single "Stuck On Repeat" was co-produced by Hot Chip's Joe Godard. This track really has it all: shimmering disco hi-hats, great vocals, and some massive synths. Luckily, I was able to find a high-quality version of the track, which sounds quite a bit better than some of the other downloads floating around. Make sure that you keep an eye out for Little Boots and the slew of remixes that should start popping up very soon. I have a feeling that it's going to be a great year. Stuck on repeat...yes you are.
Check her out on myspace to hear some other exclusive tracks!

And here's a Dead Disco track that I've always had a soft spot for; Victoria's vocals really stand out on this one.

Also, Victoria was also featured on the LA/Orange County radiostation Indie 103.1's Neon Noise electro show. Throughout the show they talk a lot about how Little Boots came in existence and there's even a DJ mix by Victoria herself. It's definitely worth checking out.
