Likt en amerikansk rappare som samplar Al Pacino från valfri gangsterfilm öppnar Hills sin första låt i samma stil. Fast filmen man samplat är Any Given Sunday. I ett halvkryptiskt mail framgår det att Hills består av 50 procent Portrait Painter och 50 procent Bye Bye Bicycle, vilket inte bara innebär 100 procent Hills som det står utan även 100 procent Göteborg. Staden vars kreativitet aldrig sinar. Musiken är närmast det material som Bye Bye Bicycle producerat, snarare än Portrait Painters. Fast det skiljer sig ändå väldigt mycket från deras tidigare enskilt skapade alster. Den största skillnaden är att det [...]

BYE BYE BICYCLE Galiba yeni bir Music Go Music vak'asıyla karşı karşıyayız. Bye Bye Bicycle onlar kadar kulağa nostaljik gelmese de, eski klasiklerin coverlandığı bir toplama albüm dinliyormuşsunuz izlenimi yaratıyor geçen ay tarihli Compass . Franz Ferdinand'ın pop hali gibi düşünülebilir, yaklaşan kışa inat neşeli melodik şarkılar dinlemek isteyenler içinse ayrıca ideal. Navigation

Oktober ab 21 Uhr findet in der Hasenschaukel die Cloudberry Night statt. Neben einem Liveauftritt der französischen Band The Sunny Street wird anschließend allerfeinster Indiestoff aufs Parkett gelegt, u.a. vom Cloudberry-Records -Betreiber Roque höchstpersönlich, der eigens aus den USA angereist ist! der Eintritt kostet 5 €, was bei dem Programm mehr als fair ist.

Sweden Disco / Indie / Orchestral Bye Bye Bicycle are my new obsession. They are a 5 piece indie rock band from Sweden with a significant twist: their music is laced with orchestral elements that are reproduced live via a mini orchestra. Think, Crystal Skulls vs. Boney M , but much more heartfelt, and with a large splash of bitter sweetness. The album Compass is the band's debut effort, and I have [...]

re: Playlist #4 Dopo la pausa estiva torna anche Inutile - opuscolo letterario , mensile autoprodotto che si trova sia in pdf sia su carta: un elegante A3 che piegato diventa più piccolo di una polaroid: da una parte rivista, dall'altra poster. Come ogni mese , in mezzo ai loro racconti, recensioni e poesie, hanno pensato di mettere una rubrica di canzoni da scaricare per accompagnare la lettura, e hanno gentilmente invitato noi. Questo numero è un po' particolare, perché lo scrittore statunitense Daniel Wallace [...]

Bye Bye Bicycle est un groupe suédois d'indie-pop assoiffé de disco.

I ran across these guys on the Bonjour Recordings website. They will be releasing their debut album, Compass, early next year, which I'm anxious to hear. Bye Bye Bicycle is the kind of band that I heard about two seconds of the first song and knew that I'd ...

Written by Fense I don't know about the rest of the world, but we here in America like to binge. Be it binge drinking, binge eating, binge buying. We gorge ourselves to the point of being quite disgusting. I am part of the problem, and a recent visit to the Cloudberry Records website saw me binge downloading a mass of mp3s, many of which will soon find their way here into posts (though I may concoct a playlist - better yet, mixtape - of various artists from the label to post [...]

Bye Bye Bicycle have made all the rounds on the indie pop blogs including posts by myself , indie mp3 and skatterbrain . But it's been awhile since we last heard from them and they're back for the summer of `08 with a retooled, even dreamier, sound. The band's upcoming debut lp is called compass and it will feature this single. "Eastside" is a bookend and a response to their song "Westside" from their first EP, I can only assume it refers to sections of their Gothenburg hometown. [...]
First day at the new job, it went well. That is until I return from a meeting and prepare to go home, only to discover that someone stole my beloved bike. That's the one thing I really, really hate about this city. And so, I'm not in a good mood. Not at all. Ride Your Bike - Sticks and Stones (buy) [...]
More 'B' goodness... Bridges and Powerlines produce catchy indiepop songs - think We Are Scientists meets the Spinto Band (amongst others) - and their debut full-length will be out this Tuesday, April 22nd. Pre-order it now! Bridges and Powerlines Ghost Types (buy) [...]

Bye Bye Bicycle Stagione di ascolti frammentari, ma non per questo meno piacevoli. Per esempio, i Bye Bye Bicycle dopo un singolo uscito su Cloudberry Records, hanno dato seguito ai primi demo dell'anno scorso pubblicando all'inizio di quest'anno un ep con sei tracce intitolato Five Little Lies . Musicalmente il quintetto di Göteborg non ha fatto molto per migliorare la propria mancanza di grazia, soprattutto in quella voce parecchio mancuniana, ma in fondo mi piacciono così. Una specie di incrocio acerbo e adolescenziale tra Babyshambles e [...]
Parker Lewis ' song "X-mas Carol, NYC" is buried in my Swedish Christmas mix but it really deserves it's own post. Today that's what it will get since Parker Lewis' new label just released a video to accompany the song. They've also released a few more songs from his forthcoming debut ep for Mad For It. The new song "Disappear Here" sounds like Parker took some of what he learned with Kalle J and applied it to his own music. There's a stronger electronic element than I've heard from Parker Lewis before. X-Mas Carol, [...]
I've understood that Facebook is growing a whole lot faster than Myspace these days, but Myspace still remains my favorite networking and "finding-new-music" tool. Below some of the stuff I've learned about in (what seems to be) the "old-fashioned" way. Anyone remember God Is Going To Get Sick Of Me by Aberdeen City ? If so, you might be interested in listening to the new demo track Whose Blood Is It ? I know I was! + [...]

İsveçli jangle pop grubu, bence tatlı çatlak bir vokalleri var ki çoğu kişi beğenmez muhtemelen. Bazı şarkılarda gerçekten rahatsız edici (ice and snow. say my name). müzikal benzerlik olarak nedense aklıma voxtrot geldi. Bir de yeni şarkılarını beğendimm..: [mp3] Bye Bye Bicycle - Westside (yeni) [mp3] Bye Bye Bicycle - Footsteps (en yeni) [mp3] Bye Bye Bicycle - Telephone Lines (eski) [mp3] Bye Bye Bicycle - Bonjour Tristesse (eski) Bye Bye Bicycle @ myspace
Bye Bye Bicycle består af fem drenge fra det svenske indiemekka Göteborg, de spiller iørefaldende indiepop, der både går i hovedet og i fødderne på én. Musikken trækker på den gode svenske poptradition (som deres hjemstavn jo især er kendt for) og britiske indietraditioner fra 802erne og frem til i dag. Du kan tjekke to af deres absolut anbefalelsesværdige numre nedenfor. De fem medlemmer mødte hinanden i folkeskolen på grund af deres ens musiksmag og besluttede derefter at danne et band og de har spillet sammen siden. Dog med få afbrydelser som skole, fester og piger, hvilket de selv forklarer på deres MySpace . Tjek musikken og deres MySpace ud. [...]
