I really like this track. it sounds very real and innocent, in a  
Briskby "This is propaganda..." kind of way. Very nice indie-pop  
feeling. Worth giving it some more work, but keep the initial feeling.  
I don't like the drumsounds so much.

Careful. This *will* end up on http://blog.wfmu.org/ eventually!

it reminds me of a band from Boston "Livesexact!". They are faster and  
more electropunk, but just as weird. Definitely the best of the three.  
The boy singing is just another strange thing... Of course the  
keyboards add to the catchyness of the tune.


Seems like the boys were taking themselves much too serious, whereas  
the girls had much fun playing around which is a much nicer approach  
to music, anyway, I think...

All in all it's just fabulous work and thanks a lot for making these  
tracks available to us! tell the boys and girls that they should never  
stop making music!
