Electric Guest – TroublemanShow Lyrics [+]She was young once, Girl of the bohemian kind. In the cold, bright dawn, We watched her grow. Wisdom began, Season when the river was high. On the gray stone long, I walked alone. Me and my heart, Following the shadow she made. Like a dull sky day, I chased the sun. Back [...]1 Track 1 Day22 May 2012

The Festival Diaries: Liverpool Sound City O ..After a week in New Orleans and an expedition to Brighton for The Great Escape, my musical May adventures have come to an end in the UK city of Liverpool (no stranger to musical celebration with streets of Beatles related memorabilia) for the annual industry conference and festival, Liverpool Sound City. Like The Great Escape the weekend before, Liverpool Sound City takes over its city for three days and nights, with a mix of brand new, up-and-coming and established artists gracing its stages. Let's waste no time and start looking back at these artists... My Sound City kicked off ...The AU Review22 May 2012

Electric Guest – MondoElectric Guest deserve praise for completely wrong-footing expectations. Comprised of Asa Taccone and Matthew Compton, the LA duo chose the name because it had stuck with Taccone since the day someone told him that he was simply ‘an electric guest of the universe’. This came after he had been kicked out of high school, and [...] Electric Guest – Mondo was originally published on The Blue WalrusThe Blue Walrus18 May 2012

TVD Vinyl Giveaway: Electric Guest, Mondo ..You’ll be hard-pressed to find another producer today who’s risen to such prolific heights as fast as Danger Mouse. Arguably the best thing to emerge from the mid-00s “mashup” fad, producer Brian Burton hit it big on The Grey Album, his deft fusion of the Beatles and Jay-Z, and has since become one of indie [...]The Vinyl District17 May 2012

Electric Guest, MondoOn their debut record, the L.A. duo Electric Guest tap into the sort of glossy retro soul that Ronson">Mark Ronson and Amy Winehouse re-popularized and Adele, Janelle Monaé and others helped spread across the land. With the help of omnipresent collaborator-for-hire Danger Mouse, though, they render what has threatened to become a wearyingly ubiquitous sound [...]17dots15 May 2012

Electric Guest - MondoThe new album by Electric Guest is being produced by Danger Mouse. That is the hook that the PR companies are working on, and probably the overriding thing that you will hear in passing about the record and/or band. The reason for this is because essentially Electric Guest are complete newcomers to the music scene and with such a highly regarded producer and musician championing their music, it certainly helps the cause. Upon listening to Mondo it is immediately noticeable why the aforementioned mouse has jumped on board with the project. The songs are melodic and catchy numbers, generally ...The 40514 May 2012
