hier noch einmal eine kleine erinnerung an die bereits ausführlicher angekündigte, von uns präsentierte tournee der niederländer alamo race ...
Just came across this one from Alamo Race Track and man is it a catchy tune. In all honesty I'm probably on my 10th listen in a row currently and I don't see any reason to stop hitting repeat. "Apples" is just a super chill track that seems to do everything right. With it's smooth, addictive beat and overlapping harmonies this track is most likely going to be stuck in my head for days and I don't have any problem with that. Residing in Amsterdam, Netherlands, Alamo Race Track is an alternative rock band [...]
by Bill Pearis DOWNLOAD : Alamo Race Track - Apples (MP3) Amsterdam's Alamo Race Track are visiting for CMJ this week...but before that madness starts they're playing a free show tonight at Mercury Lounge . It's early, doors at 6:30 and the band on shortly after that (WATERS play the late show at the same venue ). As for actual CMJ showcases, Alamo Race [...]
Peanut's Playground is my bi-weekly verbal diarrhea. Every other Wednesday I plan to ramble about stuff I like (in my typically screwed up version of English) and hope you will like too. And in case you don't... mweh . The general consensus about Dutch music is that it sucks. Ok maybe not the general consensus, since there are a lot of people who don't give a crap about Dutch music in general! Whatever the public might thin,k my own opinion on Dutch music is well known. With the exception of a few great artists [...]
Today's Friday Mixtape comes to you from Jan and it's entitled PaperPlanes. It's very much softer and slower . There will be no rump shaking around here this week. Thanks to everyone else who sent in their respective mixtapes. This was my favorite for the week if only because it's an auditory exploration of Also there is no full length streaming version of this just individual mp3s. Play this week's mixtape: 13 Angels Standing Guard 'Round the Side of Your Bed - A Silver Mt. Zion [...]
On parle toujours de la ferveur des concerts de The National qui perso ne m’a jamais touché. Bon, faut dire que j’en ai pas fait 15, des concerts de The National, un m’a suffit. En revanche, Alamo Race Track joue le 11 février et j’en frétille déjà d’aise car je sais que je vais être [...]
Here in the U.S., The Netherlands is known for few things: windmills, speed skating, the color orange. The nation's musical legacy in America can be summed up as follows: Yep, they're Dutch. Golden Earing learned a lesson early on in their career: when naming your Dutch band, best to go easy on the consonants. And, while there have been notable exceptions ( Tedje en de Flikkers , I'm looking at you), many Dutch acts from the mainstream to the indie world have embraced American [...]
In September 2007, a US company gave Vincent Moon a plane ticket to New York, to film bands in the Lower East Side for a website. But Moon filmed more than needed : in the van that carried the bands around the neighbourhood, he asked for a song every time, to every band. We kinda put those videos on a back shelf for some time. Then, we decided to dust them out of our hard drives, for the new year. Ten videos, all downloadable, with the mp3s too, everything gathered in a little compilation . [...]
by Marie-Louise Ekman Alamo Race Track - The Killing A great song about the Stanley Kubrick film of the same name. Cave Babies - It'snoteasybeing Green Joshua from the Watercolor Paintings continuing to make beautiful songs. This time with another band. Plenty of songs for free on their Last.fm page . Je Reve De Toi - [...]
Fargo a toujours été un label intrigant. Intrigant dans le bon sens du terme : un label qui avant les mp3 et les MySpace distribuait des compils gratuites à la sortie des concerts. Un label Français qui allait chercher et soutenir des artistes américains. Qui savait aussi soutenir de belles perles, prendre des risques, et réussir, parfois à faire aimer au public français des chansons qu'on imaginait inexportables. Tout cela, on le devine à travers les Concerts à emporter que nous avons filmé avec leurs artistes. Voyez plutôt. Le Festival Fargo, qui [...]
Alamo Race Track Genre: Indie From: Amsterdam, Netherlands Alamo Race Track born in Amsterdam seven years ago when a band called Redivider (not to be confused with the San Franciscan Electronica Grunge band of the same name, Redivider ) [...]
This Saturday marks the 38th anniversary of Green Up Day . On the first Saturday in May thousands of Vermonters stage the nation's largest roadside clean up. On this date I and my neighbors spend a few hours collecting the beef jerky wrappers, Dunkin' Donut cups, once even a f'n cot, that have been revealed by spring's thaw. It's amazing how much shit people throw out their window, but, each year I pick up a bit of the mess. At the same time on Saturday I'll be lured from [...]
Amsterdam dwellers, Alamo Race Track , are quite proud of their eerily peppy single “Black Cat John Brown”, and for good reason. With a YouTube video topping 680,000 views (watch it below) and a feature on Grey’s Anatomy, the tambourine-obsessed understated post-punk/blues indies fall somewhere between The Strokes and every era of The Beatles; not an uncomfortable, or easy, landing to make. Drawing most of their fan base from Europe, they’ve championed many of America’s music festivals, including CMJ and a recent SXSW stint. The album of the same name, is out now ( buy ). [...]
It's Friday and even though I'm not doing anything special this weekend (unlike my husband, who's attending his high school reunion--yes, he's going alone and yes I think he'll have a better time without me), I still get that "Friday feeling" of excitement and anticipation. To kick off the weekend, I thought I'd mention a few things that are catching my ear. Three arrived through the portal of my inbox, the others I found when traipsing around the internets. Andrew Bird [...]
MP3: 01. Alamo Race Track - Black Cat John Brown Alamo Race Track sunt 4 suedezi din Malmo, un loc de unde in ultima vreme rasare foarte multa muzica buna. Au fost comparati cu formatii gen Spoon, Peter Bjorn & John, Sparklehouse sau Gomez si spre suprinderea mea am avut bucuria sa vad ca si Andrei de la Cathartic Media a scris despre ei in martie anul trecut. Eu i-am descoperit la inceputul lunii cand am primit de la ei 3 mp3-uri pentru blog din care unul care mi-a placut cel mai [...]
