So there's this game for the Nintendo DS, "The World Ends With You," and it has a really great soundtrack. Now, I like many different types of music, and now the J-Pop side of me has kicked in, so just a heads up. The first song is "Three Minutes of Clapping" which describes the song quite well. If the first few seconds don't make you nod your head, might as well close the window as the rest of the song won't convert you. It has a funky tune that I probably couldn't listen to for a long time, but it's just one of those songs you gotta have every once in a while.

The next song is also from the "The World Ends With You" soundtrack. Now this song is sorta opposite of the last one, instead of hooking you from the beginning (thus having no real lasting power, but having an immediate satisfaction factor) it has a chorus that is just oh so good. Just wait til the 0:52 mark, then you'll see. There's nothing too special about this song though, it has a sorta techno-y feel to it, but not the good kind, it's all about the chorus in this one.
Leah - Calling
And finally, just to not keep things consistent, we have Usher's Love in This Club, the MSTRKRFT edition. It starts off in the typical MSTRKRFT style, but then the piano hits and you're in this entirely different realm, then the beats hit hard again, and you're thrown back into the club, where you make love.

And as to maintain the ending theme of "songs you probably won't hear elsewhere unless you're already into electronic" I present to you, The Bloody Beetroots. Warning, they hit hard, hit fast, and hit quite quite often. These guys are just incredibly good at making songs that are so hard, yet it's not just a constant barrage of noises flying at your ear drums, the songs have....something, the thing that makes them good. They're as good of a remixer as they are at making their own songs, so the first song will be a remix (which is less hard) and the second song will be their own (bass bass bass bass bass bass bass bass bass bass bas...).

And as an extra super duper bonus, here are The Bloody Beetroots live:
The 1:45 mark is when it gets good, really good. Extremely good. Gouge out your own eyes good. It's good.
