Baxendale (the link is pointing to myspace, as their regular website, musicforgirls.co.uk is not functioning), are an electro-dance trio from London, consisting of Tim Benton (main singer, programmer), Senay Sargut (the staple hot girl with the synth keyboards), and Alex Mayor (who actually plays guitars!). They've managed to release one album, the wonderfully named, You Will Have Your Revenge (2001).
This is one of my favorite album, I must've worn it out, listening to it constantly in my car. My favorite track is "Music For Girls", but it's simply too good and not sissy enough. Plus, to be honest, I'm a little tired of hearing it.
I've always wanted to use "I Love the Sound of Dance Music, Pt.1-2" on music compilations, but the song is nearly ten minutes long (9:48). So the song I've put on is edited (it is only part 1). Trust me, you don't really want to hear the second part, which is just Tim talking (not singing) about how his older sister used to listen to dance music and it goes on and on.
As a special bonus, I'm including another song, it's a short "Dogs & Cats" song that Tim made live on BBC Radio. It's just some mash-ups using ringtones, samplings, and scratching.
