Songs to Pump You Up

Episode two brought us songs in the theme of pumping you up. Maybe you’re in the “doldrums” or you just want something to listen to before you head out for the night. Our picks are sure to get your blood pumping!

For Christina, her pump up song is “Je Veux Te Voir” by Yelle, which is apparently NOT a diss track about French rapper Cuizinier.

Christina and Christine discussed bloghouse, indie sleaze, and the fun that was the Austin music scene in 2008. RIP Hipster Runoff, you are missed!

Christine went to Mali for her pump up pick. “Bofou Safou” from Amadou & Mariam singing in Bambera and French puts a smile on her face and a bounce in her step every time.
