Dragonette

Synth-pop
Synth-pop

Dragonette is a Synth-pop act. Their sound grew out of New Order, Basement Jaxx, Sugababes and Don Diablo. Those roots explain a lot about how Dragonette arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Little Boots, The Knocks, Ladyhawke, Annie and La Roux, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Cyndi Lauper, Carly Rae Jepsen, The Knocks, Zeds Dead and Martin Solveig, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 30 connections around Dragonette, reaching back through New Order and forward to Cyndi Lauper.
