is that you can be an electro-baby.
How young were u the first time that lights and music were on your mind?
In 10 years, I wonder if this kid will be the guy who says, “Yeah. I’ve been listening to Cut Copy since I was in diapers. My parents would drive me to school and listen to their hit album In Ghost Colours.”
Did your parents listen to rlly cool music when you were a kid? Sonic Youth? Oh, just the usual. James Taylor.

My parents listened to steely dan and bozz skags. I wear their Paul Simon “born at the right time” concert tee to 80s night at the club and I scratch IGY on on the record player cause they have The Nightfly in vinyl.

my parents listened to michael bolton, whitney houston, billy ray cyrus and mariah carey.
with those artist, i should be watching american idol and love the comedy of larry the cable guy.
my dad the other day said he listens to flo rida now. i had no clue what he was talking about or how it was spelled. it’s apparently rap.
i told my dad about the wombats. he was equally confused.

electro-baby’s Mom here. my baby likes to dance to cut copy but loves to rock out to the duke spirit. he’s fashioned our TP holder into a mic. we don’t encourage this stuff…really.
