From Russia With Love

Russia isn't exactly renowned for it's musical output (Tatu, anybody?) but Moscow-based electro outfit Tesla Boy are making for quite an exciting prospect.

Sounding like the love-child of Pip Brown and Dave Gahan, Tesla Boy's music could easily form the soundtrack to some classic Molly Ringwald movie. Their sound is quite 'done' these days but I think the tracks on their debut EP are infectious enough to give them an edge over the dearth of 80's influenced music being produced.

My favourite tracks on the EP are Runaway Man and Neon Love but the whole thing is well worth a spin.

Here's Runaway Man:
