If there are two things in this life of mine that I love, its free stuff, and music. When you put the two together they just seem to complement eachother so well. Stereogum currently has a cover album of Björk’s “Post” on their website which can be downloaded in its entirety for free. You can find that here.

The album contains every track off the original album, redone by an All-Star lineup including Liars, Dirty Projectors, High Places, No Age, and many more (8 more to be exact). As is the case with any of Stereogum’s cover albums, it shares very little with the original work besides lyrics, and the most elemental characteristics.

So go give it a listen while it’s hot.

Little Boots is from Blackpool, England.
Little Boots is a female.
Little Boots has only released a single.
Little Boots is named after the Roman emperor, Caligula (which, roughly translated, means…)
Little Boots keeps a YouTube diary, where she does covers every few Mondays and some piano-noodling.

Finally, Little Boots one official song, “Stuck on Repeat”, is awesome. The song’s beginning recalls Vitalic rough Moog synthesizers, threatening mind-numbing repetition for the songs 6 minutes, but then her voice breaks through the fuzz. When I first heard the song, I was convinced that this was a remix of some Madonna or Kylie Minogue song, and I mean that in a flattering way.  ”Stuck on Repeat” sounds like a dirty Madonna dance song, with an emphasis on the dirty. This is too hard for Madonna to touch, even if Ali-G was in her music video.

So, in mathematical form: Vitalic + Madonna - overproduction =  Little Boots. Little Boots full album drops later this year with production help from members of indie rockers’ The Birds and the Bees as well as Hot Chip. If this is any indication, it should be something special.
