You Should Check Out Mexican Institute of Sound

In the past few weeks I've started listening to Mexican Institute of Sound and they're growing on me. I heard about them through an email from Nacional Records (see also the Nacional Records' YouTube channel).

The song they led with was "ESCRÍBEME PRONTO" ...



... and checking that out led me to "Belludita", which is a catchy little number with a video that makes me laugh every time.

I've had Ohmega Watts in rotation for a few months now but just this morning played That Sound again and damn if that isn't one hot cut, y'all.

Someone has uploaded it to YouTube:

Just heard about Lyrics Born and am liking some of his stuff. In particular, these felt sweet in my ear (note - these link out to iTunes):

* I Like It, I Love It

* Callin' Out
featuring the 'if you feel it your heart reach out like Redd Foxx' line, which is nice

* Do That There

Definitely Worth Checking Out: Pimps of Joytime

Pimps of Joytime

I'm going to get back in the saddle here and try to post at least a couple of things a month here. Nothing elaborate, just links to songs and/or bands that fill my ears with sweet, sweet happiness.

So, getting on with it, another group that I found on MySpace a few months ago, The Pimps of Joytime.

A couple of clips from their YouTube channel.





Or, check them out on iTunes:
