We don’t quite know who Liam Teer is, but earlier this year he created quite possibly the best compilation album in the history of Australian pOp music. We’ve seen the So Fresh installments come and go, we lived through the excitement every time a new 100% Hits or Hit Machine compilation hit the stores, but nothing could’ve prepared us for futurePOP, released back in March. It was choc-full of clever pOp; think Robyn, Roisin Murphy, Moby, Presets, Calvin Harris, The Killers, Groove Armada, Annie… Need we go on? Suffice to say, if this 41 track two CD set is not in your collection, as a pOp fan you are to head out to the nearest CD store (remember those) and purchase one without delay!
But we almost weed our pants with excitement today when we spied that a Version 2.0 of the futurePOP compilation has been set down for release on September 08. Mark it in your pOp diary/on your Christmas list now! If the first one is any hint as to what may be contained on the second installment, it’s release will once again rock the pOp world to it’s very foundations. We love you Liam!!
