I’m repeatedly impressed by Blackpool/London electro-pop/italo-disco diva, Little Boots (formerly of Dead Disco) has been keeping busy since her solo debut, ‘Stuck on Repeat’, that we raved about last February. That record still gets heavy rotation and is still one of the best tracks of the year. As is the more recent Fake Blood remix. Fake Blood can do no wrong. Nor can the producer of the original Joe Goddard of Hot Chip; the original deserves another go also:

Little Boots new single and first retail release, ‘Meddle’ is another worth getting stuck on repeat. This record will be dropped in the UK on limited release August 4th. Original on the front and remixes from Brits, Ross Orton and Toddla T on the flip. Limited run from 50 Bones Records. Order the 7″ wax from Puregroove.

Aside from being recently confirmed for the So Sweet stage at Southern California’s 13th annual Nocturnal Wonderland festival this September 13th, Little Boots is currently doing more cozy DJing gigs around L.A.. I caught my first intimate Little Boots performance last night in an East Hollywood discotech, the always amazing, always polysexual, A Club Called Rhonda. Hey Hollywood, you can see Little Boots again tonight at the pretty and young, PYT Friday night.
If you’re jonsing for more Little Boots, she has a new mixtape—a ‘Magical Tropical Mixtape’—available for free when you sign-up for her official mailing list.
Also see, Little Boots at YouTube, where you can watch her intimate bedroom performances, employing the cool-as-hell Yamaha TENORI-ON sequencer, sexy synths and Little Boots charm.

I don’t know, the music doesn’t sound very good to me.
@ Jesse:
It’s that Giorgio Moroder influence.
Labels are hard—I throw labels around to get the point across. I haphazardly pigeon hole sometimes.
