Blanco Brown - Mmmmm.  This I like.  Very vibrant.  Much joy of dance.  Comes together very well.

bones uk - Yeeeeees.  Memorable, braintingly music.  Turn up that distortion.  I'm not well versed enough to describe it further but yes.

Epic Rap Battles of History - Not to my taste at all, I'm afraid. 

Ezra Furman - Just okay.  Most interesting part is the distortion, but it's up against bones uk doing that better so...

Avril Lavigne - Very song song.  Memorable, solid, not particularly exciting but not bad.

Haddaway - Is what it says on the tin.  Makes me want to listen to the original more though.

Clear top two, strong stuff, could go for either of them.  Good times.  Will give edge to bones uk I guess but dang that's close.

bones uk > Blanco Brown > Avril Lavigne > Ezra Furman > Haddaway > Epic Rap Battles

Hmm...nothing super grabbing me this week, but definitely some genres that don't normally make it to my top 6 either, so might be stuff Alex or grefter likes

London Elektricity - Gets my heart pounding real nice.  Yes, this is the goods in D&B.  Not too often we get this almost narrative mixing and heroic vocals, and the juxtaposition with the video is super creamy. 

Hyo - More of a standard drop format, vocals don't sync too well with the super low beat.  Alright but nothing standout.

Girls in the Park - "Hm, this has a really nice first 30 seconds"  "- first 40 seconds-"  "-50 seconds-"  "Ok it's just good"  Does eventually fall back on some repetition in the last minute, but quietly good stuff, strong contender.

Cole Swindell - No one looks that good after a night of camping.  NO ONE.  That aside, standard country stuff, not a lot to draw me in and I felt done with it after 2 min or so.

The Chainsmokers, ILLENIUM - Really nice mixing and atmosphere, pretty good!  Missing juuust a bit to bring it over the top against the others this week for me but not bad at all.

Tropical Fuck Storm - asdsdgsdkfjg what is this doing showing up here making things all hard???  Best technical side, very memorable, super strong vocals *and* precise backing and then it keeps going with distortion and a solo and????

Super strong top 3 for me, I could go with any of them, and keep the others in the bag for slower weeks.  Wow.  Chainsmokers are not far behind either.

Hmm...well, London Elektricity was a fair bit ahead of Tropical Fuck Storm for me, so...might go with that.
