Other Matt from Skatterbrain and I must think a lot alike. Today both of us fell in love with this song by Kid Theodore. So while I simultaniously write an article, rip and edit songs, and watch White Men Can’t Jump, here’s a song to sing you to sleep.

MP3: Kid Theodore - Lonely Angel
Starting off with handclaps that make me want to sing ‘oh Mickey you’re so fine’ doesn’t sound like the smartest move, but it pays off in the end. With a bass line that can only be described as ‘thumping,’ this song kicks off a romping good ride. But I think the melody might be the real winner here. It’s poppy enough to remind me of master songsmiths, Self. Unfortunately, the chorus allows the momentum to die a little bit. With a little work, these kids could be the Tapes ‘n Tapes of pop music.
