Things have picked up a bit in here since so this will probably be the last such one for a while. Plus I'll be broke after all the excellent recommendations so far! :D
Anyway, I do rather like a nice bouncy dancey number, whether you'd call it disco-punk or (new) indie dance or nu rave or electro-punk or whatever you like.
Have a lot of said stuff but would hate to be missing out on anything good.
Anything uptempo, with a hefty beat, and an analogue instrument or two to the fore, preferably a bit of guitar grrrrr. And ideally - though it's not a deal-breaker - with a female singer.
Very much along these sort of lines:
New Young Pony Club - Get Lucky
(actually wanted the remix Get Dancey but can't find it on youtube!)
Soulwax - NY Excuse
Le Tigre - Deceptacon
The Go! Team - The Wrath Of Marcie
Hot Chip - One Pure Thought
Pet - No Yes No
(Also, their keyboard player is only gorgeous. Don't have a 'type' but if I did she'd be it I think!)
Infadels - Love Like Semtex

Not sure if it fits exactly what you're looking for, and they're hardly new, but Stereo Total ticks a few of your boxes, if you don't have any of their stuff already.
In keeping with this thread I should post up a youtube link, but I'm lazy.
Again, cheers for the recommendations lads.
Chk chk chk as I believe they're pronounced by those of us in the know ;) are a band I've been meaning to have a look at, ta for the reminder Ken.
Yelle and Stereo Total have also got the once over. Impressed with all three and they're on the next purchase list.
Nice one from Jape there too, had only heard Floating before and that was through here.
The respective CSS and LCD albums are nearly worn out at this stage. :D
Can't check that last one at work but will do so soon as!
