I heard this song the other day, “Bulletproof” by La Roux, and thought it sounded WAY 80’s. I was like, “Wow. That sounds old school.”

It turns out that this is actually the brand new video for La Roux’s third single – Bulletproof. Turns out she might be trying to sound that way, as the video is very retro in style. Check it out though. Pretty cool!

2010 Grammys & Some New Music

A DJ has to keep up on music. It’s not optional. In fact, any good DJ should love music so much they couldn’t not keep up on music.

A few nights ago, I watched the Grammy Awards. There were some great performances, and a lot of talent featured. I love how the Grammys feature all different genres of music and expose amazing musicians to people whose natural inclination would not be to gravitate in their direction.

Here are the artists that were nominated for Best New Artist this year at the 2010 Grammys. Even if it is does not seem like your genre, give it a try. You just might like it.

We’ll start with the winner, the Zac Brown Band, playing Chicken Fried. I also love their Toes.

Next up is Keri Hilson singing Energy. She also did Knock You Down featuring Kanye West and Ne-Yo.

Third we have MGMT aka “The Management” with Kids. Also check out Time to Pretend.

Next on the list is alternative rock band Silversun Pickups. Here they are with Panic Switch. Also check out Lazy Eye.

Last but not least is The Ting Tings. Here they are with That’s Not My Name, and you might also like Great DJ.
