Madonna gets the hipster treatment

I'm well aware that I'm a musical contradiction. I profess to love indie rock, but my all-time favourite artist is Madonna, the most mainstream bitch on the block. It doesn't make the most sense, but that's me.

And now my conflicting music tastes have been reconciled.

Indie lable Paper Bag Records have released a tribute cover album dedicated to Madonna's True Blue album. All nine songs have been covered by a roster of artists from the Paper Bag label, including You Say Party, The Rural Alberta Advantage and Winter Gloves. And each song has been giving a complete makeover.

"Open Your Heart" by Young Galaxy is now a minimalist head bobber. "Jimmy Jimmy" by Born Ruffians is now a cool rock shuffle. And PS I Love You's chaotic take on "Where's The Party?" (embedded below) renders the song almost unrecognizable from the original 80s synth thumper. Somebody find this guy a party!

The best part is? It's all free if you go here. And you can preview all of the tracks on Soundcloud.

So, suddenly, Madonna has been made cool again in the eyes of hipsters everywhere.
