MUSIC MONDAY: Surf Noir + a mash-up for your time

Did you know surf noir was a genre? I learned this last night, and I realized that this attractively named genre is my new summer obsession. Enter Lana del Rey, aka Lizzie Grant. I had an older track by this girl in my iTunes library already, under her actual name, but I just learned over the weekend of her continuation of singing the beautiful genre of surf noir. Part 60's babydoll pop, part sweet ocean breezes, part social commentary, Lana del Rey's vintage voice is bound to have you wishing to visit the coast, be it the beach, the shore, or the cape (which one you pick is very important).

And for those whose summer tastes run more Ibiza than Venice Beach, here's a mash-up of Jennifer Lopez's "On The Floor" (that loop! ugh) and the omnipresent Calabria tune:

Enjoy, darlings!
