*SO UNIQUE!* 🎵 MGMT - Electric Feel Reaction 

I once heard someone describe MGMT as 'college music gone horribly right.'

MGMT are a band from Middletown Connecticut USA. They have been around since 2002. This song was released in 2007. There Genre’s are, Indie Rock, Psychedelic Rock, Synth-pop, Psychedelic Pop and Neo-psychedelia. So as you can see their music is diverse. Great band.

Y'all gotta do MGMT's song Kids

Other MGMT tracks to check out: Weekend Wars, The Youth, Time to Pretend, Kids.

Do Empire of the Sun - Walking on a dream. Wavy like this track, around the same era. The whole music era had some alternative sounds popping up.

The title of this song reminded me of a song you should listen to, It was released in 1982 and was big in the dance clubs. The singer is Eddy Grant and the song is Electric Avenue.

Interesting band...'Time To Pretend' is le banger. It slaps, has good lyrics, funny ending

Their songs "Kids" and "Time To Pretend" are my favorite songs by them

Walking on a Dream by Empire of the Sun is a good follow up to this song.

You should check out Foster the People, Gorillaz, and Florence and the Machine. Oh and Arcade Fire.

That entire MGMT album is a BANGER! NO SKIPS

I love Mgmt, I showed that song to some friends when it came out, they thought I was weird liking it, couple days later they were all jamming to it 😂

This is a late 70s to mid 80s sound. Reminds me of Chic and Loose Endz. It would have crossed over to Black radio and clubs if it came out then. This shit goes hard young people.

There’s a clip of MGMT performing this song on stage with Kid Cudi absolutely electric feeling it. Always cheers me up.

Save it for the electric bill 🤣 is what I heard. 2000’s, baby!

This album is a favourite of mine. It's my personal summer of love album, back when I first let love in and life was amazing. Late teens, not a care in the world. Good memories forever associated with it. The vocals in this version are different to what I've ever heard before, more distortion and effects.

That soothing flute sound Brad likes is actually a synthesized flute with some delay on it.

Was in college when this song came out and we danced our asses off at the clubs to it. Love this song!

This was the soundtrack to my sixth form/early uni days. So much nostalgia

This was my jam for the longest time 😁

This whole album is awesome. Such a unique mix of electronic and rock. It's called Oracular Spectacular. It was big in 2008/9.

Saw these dudes at Bonnaroo a few years back, what a show. They certainly know how to have a good time with the crowd. By the end you couldn't even see the band for all the people they let up to dance on stage!

Some early 2000's alternative (2007)! Didn't figure you'd go there, but I love it. Death Cab for Cutie, The Shins, Foster the People, Arcade Fire, The Killers, The Black Keys are some other excellent bands from the same time frame ✌

You guys legit remind me of artists use to listen to and get to enjoy again!

Wow, love you guys finally listening to some late ‘00s/early ‘10s alternative. Keep going with this band, as well as Tame Impala, Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend, Glass Animals and a lot more I can’t remember right now.

2000s with retro '70s/'80s style funk and electronics. A little new wave influence too. "Kids" is another good song from them. Empire of the Sun, Goyte, Royksopp, and Capital Cities are groups similar to them too. Its like dance music for hipsters ha! Alternative/Indie dance music.

This was my jam back in high school. This song is from like 2009 I think. They did a collab with Kid Cudi on his first album. A lot of this synth pop was extremely popular during that time.

Time To Pretend is another great one.

Oh this brings back memories… MGMT has songs that make your day brighter ✌️ Saw them in concert here in Portugal around 02:00AM on a hot summer night in July… good times

I fell in love with this song while working at Marc by Marc Jacobs Singapore 2012. They used to play this everyday! ❤️

I know Lex would love "Kids" by these guys

Never heard of them but I like this song a lot. Gonna spin em up on Amazon Music.

Ended up being a classic 🔥

they have another group called Empire of the Sun that's fucking amazing. We are the People is one of the best songs of the last 2 decades.

Their story, history, and stance on music is fascinating. Another song you should listen to that I dont really see in the comments is "Congratulations",,, but "Electric Feel" and "Time to Pretend" are my personal favorites just ahead of "Congratulations", with "Kids" in my fourth place spot.

MGMT are more than these mainstream hits , songs like Siberian Breaks or Metanoia are masterpieces of psychedellic Rock.

Really love this song. it was heavy play on my iPod back in the day.

5:47 “Why not??” Made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂

This album was MASSIVE in the UK in the late 2000s. I had like 3 copies of it, really great album this is off and was one of the main bands in the 'indie' subculture here around that time. I'm still waiting for some harder music from you guys but I won't give recs, I'll hope some like minded people will do that

A very unique sounding bop. Can’t categorize this one

you should listen to M83

Love the Eeyore costume, Lex! Knew this from FIFA '11 and a local radio station played it relatively often.

These guys are very talented. It's from this century but earlier. Also, they may be referencing hallucinogens in this song. I'm not 100% sure of that, but I've always thought of ayahuasca when I hear this song. Maybe it's just me lol.

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the fact that Lex is dressed up in an Eeyore onesy? Literally could not ooze more class if she tried.

This song brings up so many memories, used to play it all the time back when I lived in the Marshall Islands just over a decade ago.

My wife put this song in back in 2010 we were driving, no talking just smoking N vibing, married her, still together atm

Became a fan because of Cudi, MGMT goes hard on Lsd

My daughter turned me on to this band! we do share the Love 💕 of Music

I really think you guys are doing a great job the way you handle your channel and the music you choose to react to and when you react to it. Not reacting on the Live Stream to music requests that are Super-chatted to you may be a big reason why your Streams are not taken down mid-flight. Also happy to see you follow through on this Super Chat request in a timely manner. Props to the person who Super Chat this to you also. He did it good asking you to react to it off stream instead attempting to pay for the play during the Stream. Koo-dos all around.

“Congratulations” is one their best

Just cause you reacted to this and cause I loved the reaction, I gotta sub!

Man nothing like them middle/ high school days 2007 -2011 when I discovered this gem 🤘🏻😝

2008-12 were legendary years for life

OMFG! Did y'all just namedrop BLACKMILL?! A REACH FOR GLORY is my favorite chillstep (melodic dubstep) release of all time! I literally cannot believe anybody else, especially you guys, know who Blackmill is!

Frank Ocean - Nature Feel, sampled from Electric Feel both legit bangers.

This song is actually about lsd, the oooh girl part is referring the to Lucy a nickname for lsd and the electric feel is the body feeling lsd gives you

This is early 2000s. It's basically NYC hipster music. Bands like this, Interpol, the Killers and Foster the People drew from many 80s genres like New Wave, House music and Freestyle.

Love the harmony is the song. Also, I am with Brad on this one😂

I was so waiting to see how Lex would react to hearing the sound for the first time and she didn't disappoint...lol

There is definitely an 70s influence in this song. But with more modern indie pop sensibilities.

Def need to check out their track Time to Pretend. Mv is trippy, great lyrics for Brad and a unique sound. These guy's have quite a lot of good track's.

Cmon lex ya gotta like this,i can see you wanna move to this!!!!!!!yep shes smiling

Lex!! Love your reactions. I smile when I see you two react. But Lex, you love music. It’s contagious

Of Montreal are probably the best of these indie/electro acts. They have tonnes of albums, and maintained their level of quality throughout.

Brings back memories of watching mtv before highschool.

Just went to comment on FB and use a gif, I typed FACTS! and a gif of Brad popped up saying "spittin facts!" haha... y'asll done made it now lol

ARCTIC MONKEYS - DO I WANNA KNOW

Bro at this point its like a game i play every night; take a shower, jump into the jacuzzi, light a fatty, and then type in random songs i love with the namez Lex and Brad followig the sing title

I got distracted by the high Uber cuteness level of Lex in that onesie!😆🔥❤️🙏🇬🇧

I know the name but never really checked them out even tho they have been compared to Ween many times. They sound, to me, more like Tame Impala. But like both Tame Impala & MGMT, Ween was built by 2 ppl, one who played all the instruments and the other wrote the lyrics and then later put together a band for touring. Maybe this is why they are grouped together every now&then. So some: Ween - Buckingham Green or Blue Balloon

Can never get enough of this song and video, also wish I was there.

A full bop

You guys have to do more MGMT!!!

Time to do an Indie music live stream!!

The first time I heard this I was walking down into brother's bar in downtown Minneapolis back in like 2008/2009 or somethin and it was a whole vizzzibe lol I felt like I was Magic Don Juan or somethin 😂

Songs a masterpiece

Definite Prince DNA in this 🤘🏻

So I've been binging through your videos, you two are awesome. I just came from watching your Zombie reaction and it surprised me to see you haven't reacted to The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel yet, it's a pretty dope song with very awesome lyrics.

Check out "Blue Monday" by New Order. Its a synth type of song with a very loud bassline. Its a older song from the 80s that might give a similar vibe.

Its Alt Indie music. 100% indie but with psychedlic electronic vibe

I missed the live from the other day, but I’m so glad you did this! Thanks for always putting out great content. Love the second channel as well! Couch Gang!!!

Love your channel! Like the way you guys jump right into the music. Like how Brad always analyzes the lyrics & Lex has her own free spirited description of the music, and most times is spot on! Keep up the entertaining reviews & please review more RUSH! Freewill or By-tor & the Snowdog.

Discovered this song watching American Dad

Omg I have never heard this but I love it💕

holy shit i didnt think youd be reacting to mgmt anytime soon lol. they've been one of my favorite bands since high school. "time to pretend," "electric feel," and "kids" are songs from their first album that were kind of their version of mocking pop music. ironically they also were the songs that made them famous. the other two would make good reactions too. when it comes to their early shit "the handshake" is one of my favorite tripping songs. "indie rokkers" is a classic. "weekend wars" is amazing. "the youth" and "4th dimensional transition" are also great. "brian eno," "congratulations," and "flash delirium" are great from their second big album. from their newest album "little dark age" and "when you die" are both amazing. little dark age has become a meme, paul joseph watson used it in his "white boy summer" segment of one of his modernity videos. there's a pepe that looks like the lead singer in the video so the memeing right has attached themselves to it lol. little dark age is probably the song ive listened to most in the past few months lol. i really love seeing brad like this, if he likes this song i think he'd like most of the others i mentioned. they have a great unique sound and are lyrically interesting too.

Yall have to dive into MGMT now. When You Die is a great song with a trippy video.

MGMT - Time to Pretend. Great song.

Love this whole album ❤

This song was big when my first son was born so I associate it with that. Love this song.

They’ve never heard MGMT?! One of my fave bands

To me this song reminds me of a disco feel, almost like a bee gees feel.

Good reaction, you guys, as usual. I am always interested when you all try to decipher the "genre" or era of a song. To me, this song is obviously 2000's. It has the modern synthesizer sounds of today as well as contemporary pop music's subtle blending of the past 70 years of modern music. In here are pop influences from the 1950s through today, particulary from electronica (esp. techno which is from the early 1990s), 1980's new wave (New Order, Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, etc.) and older as well as modern psychedelic rock (especially groups like Flaming Lips and Spiritualized). Certain trends seem to come back around but are always mashed up with other styles and trends as they are reintroduced

SHOULD TRY Empire Of The Sun

I was not around in the 70s, but it sounds like something from that time frame. I had no idea that it was so "new". I think the first time that I heard it was on The Voice - Preston Pohl. I think he actually sings it a little better... with the rasp.

I think this is one of the most creative songs so far of the 21st century. I hear Mick Jagger.

Loved the MGMT back in the day, but you can miss their new stuff.

1:22 she liked that line 🤣

That first MGMT album was fire! Then it's like they made a conscious decision to make music as inaccessible to the masses as possible. And I like weird stuff like Japanese noise rock & I just couldn't get into later MGMT.

Unique indeed, and catchy. Cool that you reacted to it. For similar modern psychedelic rock vibes, check out Tame Impala a popular band from Australia.

Great skating rink jam
