It's Tuesday, February 26. Here's what the music gods from above have delivered us today (these aren't in alphabetical order, they're arranged according to my excite-o-meter)...

Erykay Badu, New Amerykah, Pt. 1
From the tracks I've heard, I think I'm going to like this album. I dig the album cover too! (pictured left)

Goldfrapp, Seventh Tree
You'll hear more songs from this album in a W Hotel lobby, than you will a dance club--it's very chill.

Janet Jackson, Discipline
I think Janet actually sings on this album. I can't stand the songs in which she just oohs and aws chorus-type loops for the duration of a track.

Sebastien Tellier, Sexuality
Get your dance on!

Beach House, Devotion
The perfect sountrack for a dream sequence (vaseline around the edges of the lens and all).

Ludo, You're Awful, I Love You
This is what I call "gateway" rock. It could get a pop kid interested in indie-music and vice versa.
