Guilty Music Monday #28

Since the dawn of ABBA and synthesizers man has been plagued by impossibly catchy yet ridiculously gay pop music. It’s a mystery as to why Swedish people seem to make such damn good music. It’s an ever vexing conundrum that leaves some pondering “Wow I quite enjoy this ditty yet I feel it questions my sexuality to an uncomfortable degree.” Never fear faithful GMM goers for your secret is safe here. These following songs will have you dancing and grooving all while wondering if the pink shirt you chose today was the right idea.
First up are Swede poppers Lo-Fi-Fnk. A single off their 2006 debut album “Boylife”. Yes it’s called Boylife. This song is not only a fantastic gay poppy club tune but also a veritable Los Angeles/large metropolitan city anthem.
Since his first EP “Frankisum” I have had an affinity for Frankmusik. Whether it’s the blinding neon color schemes, the hyped tempo gameboy breaks or the fact that he takes pictures of himself naked except for a synthesizer. It’s an affinity I can’t seem to rationalize with anything else other than the fact that he makes such crazy good pop tunes that I forgive him.
Finally is a lesser known group. The Similou are an also Swedish electro dancy synthy duo who make a slightly more disco tinged blend of pop music. This song sounds like a rooftop jam as you overlook the city with your friends decked out in clothing more appropriate for a Duran Duran video and sunglasses more appropriate for the daytime. And it includes the line “Rainbow Styling”.
By the way: No offense to homosexuality.
