Sarah E. DeBlanke of the Robotanists
The Robotanists, a group from LA are releasing their 3rd studio album early in 2011. They are just coming to my attention now though, and their name alludes to both robots and botany (The study of plants) and that is sweet enough for me to like them without having listened to their music. Their music is a pleasant indie-pop affair with strong female vocals, sure to appeal to fans of Florence + The Machine, Feist, etc.
Ethan Gold is a transplant to LA by way of San Francisco. His multifaceted songwriting makes for an interesting listen. This video for his track “Poison” is pretty slick too.
If Robert Smith’s vocals cleaned up the mix and made a compelling pop song, Sane Smith’s remix obscures some of that pop perfection. It’s like Crystal Castles remixed their song again.

Plastic Operator
Plastic Operator, one of my favorite laid back electronic acts has released several remixes of their song “Singing all the time”. Most of the tracks are kind of just extended mixes with a few more glitch effects, but the remix by Wax Stag adds some pleasant synth wobble.
Sweet Lights from Philadelphia
Sweet Lights has some solid songwriting and production. A lot of his songs feel like mellowed out Walkmen tracks.
Mike Diaz - AKA Millionyoung
Mike Diaz aka Millionyoung is set to release his debut LP “Replicants” early next year. The hazy, surfy, euphoric album is sure to be a highlight of 2011.
