Mongo Lounge - Put On The Neon

"The beat will go on"

Mongo Lounge's myspace page lists them as coming from England and Sweden, and frankly I can't imagine a better pairing of countries when it comes to music. They're a trip-hop band, which--if you're like me--conjures boring, unimaginative downbeat techno. Luckily, Mongo Lounge has a great way with a pop melody and an adventurous, fun sound. Put On The Neon is instantly catchy, like a more accessible The Knife or a poppy Bjork. And how is that for a fantastic catchphrase? Put on the neon! That should be, like, the mantra of this blog.
