MGMT – FLASH DELIRIUM

Kid Aloha — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:20:35 +0000

MGMT just posted up their newest track, “Flash Delirium” for free at http://www.whoismgmt.com/. Its been a while since we’ve heard anything from the Brooklyn pair, but with the release of their new album “Congratulations” on the horizon, I think we will be hearing a lot from them in the coming weeks. NME magazine, who have gotten a sneak preview of the album, described the experience as “frenetic, brief psych nuggets,” “echo-drenched mini epic tendencies” and some “classic MGMT”. We have been warned by the band to not expect anything along the lines of “Kids” singles, but rather a coherent collection of songs.

Kid Cudi On Letterman

Kid Cudi’s performance here pretty much sums up his whole game… Seems simple enough… Almost plain… But by the end your kind of of mesmerized… Letterman says it right: :”There’s a lot going on there”

Kid Cudi Ft. MGMT and Ratatat – Pursuit of Happiness

Kid Cudi’s first single off his debut album was just leaked and man is it good. Combining the talents of Cudi, MGMT and Ratatat its a dark melodic lullaby lamenting and extolling the virtues of our 21st century idea of the Pursuit of Happiness. As someone who can relate to the nice hollow feeling this little youthful obsession can bring I felt shivers through my spine the whole track. I remember a year ago kind of doubting Cudi especially when he started musing on his blog about quitting the industry: “The drama that comes with it is more overwhelming than the s–t I was dealing with when I was p–s-poor broke.” At the time he was saying he felt pressured to one-up “Day N Nite,” which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 — For me that was a little too Diva-ish.

But with “Make Her Say” and now this track I’m back firmly on the bandwagon. Times have changed and I’m looking forward to the debut of “Man on the Moon: The End of Day,”

With the help of producers Plain Pat, Ratatat, Kanye West and Emile and collaborators like Ratatat, West, Common, Chip the Ripper, and MGMT: “Cudi takes his listeners through a dark, ambitious, self-reflective 15-track set — divided into acts and narrated as dreams and nightmares — revealing his deepest fears, hopes and dreams (Reuters).”

Cudi’s songs and lyrics perfectly sum up the zeitgeist of what seems to be happening in music and culture right now for all the jaded youth. Hip-Hop, Electro, Indie all seem to be blending into one beautiful mess that is bringing people from all sides of the spectrum together and giving everyone a chance to be poisoned by the 21st centuries’ first real age of the debauched: Sex, Drugs and internet music.
