Who or what is a TimPermanent? From the sounds of his new EP, Marker, he could very well be one of the most intriguing artists to emerge in 2011. Deviating from the standard electropop sound, there's a refreshing experimental nature to his music and an unparalleled honesty in the lyrics that will leave you wanting more. You just listen to 'More Than Want' and tell me you weren't ready to hit repeat as soon as it finished. If that's not good enough for you, check out his smashing live cover of Robyn's 'Dancing On My Own.' When you can successfully pull off covering a Robyn track, you know you're good. Take note Miley, this is how you pay homage to one of the greats.
Like another breakout star of 2011, Kimbra, TimPermanent's music leaves a smile on your face for all the right reasons. There's no sleaze factor, no pretentiousness and no desire to be the next Lady Gaga. Admit it, everyone else is. This is just music that will make you happy. Enjoy!
