These 2 guys came out of nowhere for me. During my time in Los Angeles and hanging with the little chip scene there, the name George & Jonathan seemed to have acquired quite strong word-to-mouth value. When I heard the track “Out With My Girlfriends” through 8BitCollective it all became clear to me why. These guys are absolutely amazing. This shouldn’t come as a surprise looking at the fact that one of the dudes used to be in Anamanaguchi. Their new album is called THE BEST MUSIC and rarely has an album lived up to its name like this one. If you don’t start dancing while listening to this release, then you deserve to have blood in your urine for the next year and a half.
THE BEST MUSIC contains 13 tracks and is made with Pixel’s (Cave Story) Piston Collage tracker. From the irresistible Woody Woodpecker beats of “No Ya Not & No Ya Didn’t” to the emotional fishy lovemaking of “Whale”, this is one of the best releases of 2010 and it’s free.

Beat me to it, Audi. Goddamn it, I have not stopped listening to this since yesterday. Those bass lines are so fucking funky they cause immediate and irreversible evocation of air guitar.
I think there might not be any better way to describe Whale than “emotional fishy lovemaking”. You hit it out of the park with that. I have not stopped bumpin’ this album since the day it came out, and what’s more, I cannot and will not. Good shit.
This is fantastic. Nice find.
