Why do we like this?

For a couple of guys with classical music backgrounds, Western Australian duo Sun City make anything but traditional music. Longtime friends who met in high school, Tobias John and Daniel Mackey have been collaborating since early 2011. They released their self-titled debut EP in September 2011, and they're gearing up to release a second. To help you bide the time, here's "City Lights" from their first EP.

"City Lights" is all about sun-drenched synth hooks and large basslines. This formula has been done before (think the Naked and Famous or fellow Western Australians Tim and Jean), but what does it matter if it's a good track?

Look for more of the same in August when their new EP is due -- you'll be hearing a lot more from Sun City no doubt.
