Good Luck At The Gunfight
Good Luck At The Gunfight describes their sound as: sort of synth heavy, pop 80s-ish dance music.
They would fit well on the Binary Entertainment record label; in fact, Binary's blogged about them to rave reviews. Their sound is VERY similar to that Alfa remix I posted a while back.
"Dreamwave" ... that's what the genre is supposedly called. Love the synth lead, love the pads, love the distorted vocoder.

Edwin Van Cleef
This remix is vocoder heaven. Spacey, gorgeous, melodic -- just a damn good track.
My God this remix is all over the place. I indirectly linked to this track about a month ago when I posted about Neo Tokyo, but I don't mind linking to it directly now.
I think the track is a little...too much. But it's worth a listen.

Club Love

The Cataracs are goofy guys.
Club Love is their first "hit", and at first glance it doesn't appear to be a joke.
Once you see these guys on YouTube, though, you'll discover they are closer to The Lonely Island or Flight of the Conchords than they are to club jam hip hop MCs.
I got to admit -- they're doing things to autotune voices that sounds damn good. They're good producers. I've never heard autotune pitched up and down and generally just downright fucked with quite like this. It sounds much better than when T-Pain tried experimenting with this a little bit on "Chopped and Screwed".

United States of Pop: 2009
2009 was an interesting year for music.
Autotune was bigger than ever, regardless of what Jay-Z declaired. Kings of Leon got huge. Country fans had a critically-acclaimed Brad Paisley album to cherish, indie fans had their Animal Collective LP and EP. Boom Boom Pow was Big Big Bucks. Lady Gaga became a sort of modern day Madonna. Drake made the most successful mixtape ever.
Let DJ Earworm, mashup artist extraordinaire, take you through the Billboard Top 25 for 2009.
What a year.
