I like the Jam City even though the "COLD IMPOSING 80s HE DOESN'T HAVE A NAME HIS NAME IS DRIVER ALSO MIDNIGHT CITY" aesthetic is rapidly getting played out.

Been playing this pretty much 24/7 lately, makes up for the immense letdown Six Cups Of Rebel still continues to be. Also still the best artwork of 2012 so far.
