Well, well, what can I say. Is there a project on earth any cooler that what those crazy lads from Spain, Buffetlibre, put together? And they’ve totally outdone themselves with this latest incarnation. 89 friggin’ songs! Are you kidding me? It’s a goldmine of neo-nostalgia. I don’t even wanna think about the organizational effort that went into producing this collection. Including Little Boots, Miami Horror, Au Revoir Simone, Bonde Do Role, the Glass, and on and on and on, with covers of Michael Jackson, Fleetwood Mac, Tears for Fears, New Kids on the Block, and on and on again. Even both Kunkers’ home cities (San Francisco, Budapest) are represented in the form of Baron von Luxxury, and TMX, respectively. Since they were kind enough to share the entire lot of songs with us, we’ve got a hell of a lot to choose from for sharing. But somehow we’ll have to manage, so here it goes… (we may post some down the road as well)

Au Revoir Simone - Here Is The News (ELO cover) // [ysi]

Electric Youth - Lying Still (Level 42 cover) // [ysi]

We Have Band - West End Girls (Pet Shop Boys cover) // [ysi]

Baron von Luxxury - Y Control (Yeah Yeah Yeahs cover) // [ysi]

Our favorite of the above is cover laid down by the high school sweathearts/futuro electro duo, Electric Youth. Sweet voice, sweet editing, those kids are on the up and up, and will be coming euro-side in spring of this year!
