New Music Monday....Metronomy

Monday Monday - it's  New Music Mondays music lovers. We have been so lucky to be basked in sunlight, and there is nothing better than good music in the sunshine. This weeks New Music Obsession is Metronomy.

Named after the musical term for the measurement of time by an instrument, Metronomy is an electronic music group formed by Joseph Mount in Totnes, Devon, England in 1999. The current band consists of Joseph Mount (composer, singer, keyboards and guitar), Anna Prior (drums and vocals), Oscar Cash (saxophone, backing vocals, guitars and keyboards) and Gbenga Adelekan (bass guitar and vocals.)

Their music consists of instrumental electronic music and vocal electronic pop music. Mount also releases remixes under the name Metronomy, and has remixed many artists including Gorillaz, Roots Manuva, Franz Ferdinand, Klaxons, Goldfrapp, The Young Knives, Zero 7, Ladytron, Kate Nash, Lady Gaga and Lykke Li.

Metronomy have released three albums of original material, Pip Paine, Nights Out and The English Riviera, released in April 2011. This band is a perfect mix if you like dance, electronic, indie or even a little jazz. So please enjoy my favorite Metronomy track "The Bay" see you next week, my little music geeks!
