Just a quick post to give a heads up about a great compilation from Rash Records, called Home. While it’s free of charge to download, you can choose to pay for it as well in order to contribute to the making of the next volume.
This volume is described as “an album of warm home spun [...]

I Don’t Want To Party (But I Want Popcorn)

It’s Friday night, I’m bored and feeling a bit down, I ate far too much chocolate earlier (again) and am currently wishing I had some popcorn to snack on as well. But I have no popcorn, only tea and apples, so here’s some good music I’ve been meaning to write about and that deserves your [...]

Jen Wood – “Finds You In Love”

I’ll admit to being a bit unsure about Jen Wood at first. Granted that I haven’t heard any of her previous works, but Find You In Love’s opening track (and promotional mp3) “Pills” has far too much teen-angst for me to take it seriously. Fact is it gives me the image of a 17-year [...]

Sweet Offering from The Sweet Serenades

The Sweet Serenades‘ new song “Die Young” actually kind of suits their name as it is a sweet (albeit bitterly so) duet with Club 8 singer Karolina about the dangers of falling in love with a one night stand. Apparently it was featured in an episode of Grey’s Anatomy, but what upcoming-yet-already-popular-in-the-blog-world band hasn’t been [...]

Sorry sorry sorry! I meant to post this song ages ago, but unfortunately it coincided with my identity crisis as a music blogger a while back.
Atlanta duo La Chansons have gotten a bit of flack in reviews lately but then their kitschy 80s electropop is hardly for everyone. Personally I find them adorable (I’ve featured [...]

Chew Lips – “Seven”

I haven’t been sure whether or not to feature Chew Lips here, as I got over their album Unicorn pretty fast. It has all the element for me to enjoy it: electro pop with female vocals, good hooks and so on, but I found a lot of the songs to sound too similar to one [...]

Balmorhea (pronounced bal-more-ay) are releasing their new album Constellations today which follows their previous releases All is Wild, All is Silent (2009) and Rivers Arms (2008). I actually haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet but if the free song “Bowspirit” is any indication, I think I’m gonna love it. Acoustic instrumental and [...]

~ Jonathan Johansson – “En hand i himlen” ~
Why am I posting this? Because I’m somewhat in love with this song today, that’s why. The Fredrick Carlsson remix is still available here.

~ Paul and the Patients – “Tiny Red Light” ~
A very good song, but perhaps a bit too commercial as I instantly can imagine it being used in any prime time American teen drama (maybe it already has, what do I know?). But since I like it very much, I’ll overlook that. Nice contrast between [...]

The Actors

US trio The Actors compare their sound to “Daft Punk and DJ Shadow, Talking Heads and MGMT – hell, even Scott Walker and Blur”, but I’m not so sure if I agree. A mixture between Talking Heads and MGMT is a fair comparison, but they are too soft for the likes of Daft Punk and [...]
