BFlecha, “B33” [Spain]

Belén Vidal, the Spanish producer known as BFlecha, specializes in making electronic pop music that's somehow both lush and minimal at the same time. "B33" is one of her best tracks, and is a perfect introduction to her ethereal, vaguely melancholy music.

Jota Quest featuring Nile Rodgers, “Mandou Bem” [Brazil]
youtube.com
Disco legend Nile Rodgers made his big comeback this year with Daft Punk's mega-hit "Get Lucky," but he also lent his unmistakable rhythm guitar style to this retro disco single by the Brazilian band Jota Quest. There's some amazing roller skating footage in this video, by the way.

Dënver, “Revista de Gimnasia” [Chile]

Dënver's "Revista de Gimnasia" is one of the year's finest retro-disco tunes, and it's been a very competitive year on that front, both in Chile and abroad. This video is fascinating too – it's baffling, and manages to be both incredibly icky and vaguely sexy.

Brown Eyed Girls, “날아갈래” [South Korea]

This track from the K-Pop girl group's fantastic album Black Box is sort of like Beyoncé's "Love On Top" crossed with classic TLC, but with almost all of the singing and rapping delivered in Korean rather than English. It's a winning combination.

Anitta, “Show das Poderosas” [Brazil]
youtube.com
The Brazilian pop singer Anitta is maybe a bit too obvious in fashioning herself as the Southern Hemisphere's answer to Beyoncé – the video for her enormous hit "Show das Ponderosas" is very Bey-esque and the song samples Major Lazer's "Pon De Floor" just like "Run the World (Girls)." But if you're going to model yourself on someone, why not aim for the best?

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, “Mottai Night Land” [Japan]

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu may be the most kawaii human in history. "Mottai Night Land" is a delightful pop tune, but it's eclipsed somewhat by its video, which breaks new ground for extreme cuteness and whimsy.

Touming Magazine, “Beer’s Waiting” [Taiwan]

Yes, they have pop-punk in Taiwan, and yes, it's really fun and exciting and they sing about beer. What a wonderful world!

. Pompeya, “Power” [Russia]
youtube.com
A lot of Russian pop music is made exclusively for a Russian audience, but this band from Moscow clearly has an interest in becoming internationally famous. They sing in English, which goes a long way towards crossing over in the West, and their chilly, groovy music fits right in with a lot of contemporary English and American indie music.

两首中文歌都好喜欢……玫瑰色的你就不用说了，神的游戏里好评最多的一首歌。
林忆莲《盖亚》这张，再一次证明了，常石磊参与制作的歌，基本都不错，只要他不自个儿亲自唱。

senza paura这张意大利冠专绝对好听，推荐给碧波仔！
