AMANDA-- "FADE AWAY" by ELECTRIC YOUTH

Needless to say, this post is coming to you very, very late. My apologies but it was a strange day and I didn't have anything I particularly felt like sharing until now. The soundtrack for the 2011 film Drive is one of the best I've heard in a while. The movie's heavily inspired by the 80's and  its impeccable electronic-pop score contributes much in the way of style. Electric Youth is featured on the song , "A Real Hero," an ethereal synthpop track.  The two person band from Toronto  don't even have a page on Wikipedia, though they fittingly share their name with a Debbie Gibson album. The point is they've got a unique sound and backstory, which you can read about on their Facebook page. Personally, I'm  enjoying this recent  resurgence of 80's inspired music. It'll be fun to see where Electric Youth goes from here. Enjoy!
