metronomy / nights out

You have probably heard Metronomy.  They have done many remixes for many great artists.  My personal fav, and the one that introduced me to the UK electronic trio is the Temposhark & Imogen Heap collaboration "Not That Big."  More notably, they've done mixes for Franz Ferdinand, Ladytron, and Gorillas and recently Lykke Li ("I'm Good, I'm Gone") and Goldfrapp ("Happiness")    

 
Their sound evokes elements of Klaxons, LCD Soundsystem, and Junior Senior.  Their latest album Nights Out, released last month in the UK, is a collection of dance-tinged songs about heartbreak with fey, melancholic vocal layers & instrumentals that stand on their own as great tracks.

A wonderful album overall, definitely worth checking out if you can find it. 

And just in time for Halloween, here's a stand-out track from their 2006 album Pip Paine.
