My Poproks Best Songs of 2010: The Playlist

The only way to get this year’s playlist up later than I did last year was to do it on NYE. Luckily, I kept a running list through-out 2010 that ended up with about 100 songs on it (too many!), and had to ax a lot of favorites. So, if the below 60 song playlist [...]

My Poproks 21 Best Albums of 2010

After 4 years of doing year end Top 10 Album lists, I’ve finally realized how insufficient it is in accurately showcasing my favorites from the year. it’s been a pleasure not having to slim my list down to only 10 records, because that is dumb. 21 seemed like a nice round number that complimented the [...]

Robyn “Dancehall Queen” Video Feat. Actual Dancehall Queen

The latest for Robyn’s “Dancehall Queen” (Body Talk Pt. 1 and ’3′) features what appears to be an actual dancehall queen getting her dancehall queen on. No Robyn anywhere to be seen in this clip, but the karaoke style lyrics across the bottom make up for this. Co-directed by the song’s producer, Diplo. Body Talk [...]

Robyn “Dancehall Queen” Dillon Francis Remix & Diplo Remix

Yes I am posting more Robyn stuff and yes I am posting more Mad Decent/Diplo stuff. To celebrate Monday’s release of Body Talk (Best?), Mad Decent offered up a remix of Diplo produced “Dancehall Queen” by newcomer, Dillon Francis, whose debut EP is due in the spring. Bonus: Diplo recently remixed the track himself, and [...]

Robyn “Indestructible” (A-Trak Radio Edit)

A-Trak’s ‘Radio Edit’ of Robyn’s “Indestructible” (via the latest installment of Body Talk, which I’ve recently realized could very very seriously be the best thing of the year) should have just gone ahead and called itself a ‘remix.’ An awesome remix. (P4K)

Robyn “When Doves Cry” (Prince Cover) Live Studio Version

More Robyn anyone? Great. Here’s a recent cover of Prince’s “When Doves Cry” recorded live in one take onto vinyl for BBC 4′s On Track With SEAT (obviously because the UK has all of the good shows). Uncovered by the internet detectives over at SKOA. MP3 rip available for download at Stereogum.

Robyn at Club Nokia (With Maluca)

Last night was Robyn’s stop at LA Live’s Club Nokia on her current North American tour with Natalia Kills and Maluca, and it was pretty much a Dance Party of Love. The 31 year old Swedish singer continues her Konichiwa rebirth with her upcoming Body Talk series finale (due November 22), which puts the exclamation [...]

Robyn “Dancing On My Own” on Jimmy Fallon

Robyn really is too good to be true. Maybe you’ve stumbled onto some of the new tracks from her upcoming ‘Best of’ Body Talk (which may or may not be here), but pop music, and the world in general, is a better place when Robyn releases 30 new songs in one year. For sure. Another [...]

Robyn “Indestructible” Body Talk Pt. 3 Version

Robyn’s pwnage of 2010/Body Talk saga pounds on steadily with the first single for Body Talk Pt. 3′s “Indestructible” (via Body Talk Pt. 2′s “Indestructible Acoustic Version” a la “Hang With Me”). Pt. 3 coming November 22. Spoiled by Robyn 2010. (Stereogum)
