"Sunday girl" , the frontrunner of "Hymns I remember" , is seeped in the essence of 60s pop music. The fact that it wouldn't feel out of place on a Jens Lekman album doesn't hurt either, and like Lekman, Helena Sundin softly, gently draws us into the musical translations of her inner monologues with this opening track. The rest of Cake on Cake 's album is solid, even more so if you are fond of the brand of Swedish pop that has seen such praise heaped upon El Perro del Mar and [...]
![Cake On Cake [Feature Band]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1337032_lg.jpg)
Written by Fense One of the first noticeable items about Cake On Cake ( MySpace ) is the name. It's a sweet (no pun intended) take on Bob Dylan's classic Blonde On Blonde . The two, of course, have little, if anything, in common. It's there; but that's not really important in the bigger scheme of things, now, is it? We're here to hear about the music. Yet again, here is a band that is immediately reminiscent of Au Revoir Simone. [...]
The release of the new Cake On Cake album "Hymns I remember" has been pushed back to November 18.

LAist has a nice new podcast called "Advanced Afrobeat For Beginners." 03. I decided to suck it up and go see Flogging Molly at the House of Blues next month. Only Dave King & co. would get me out [...]

Here are a bunch of songs I recommend listening to right now. An interesting fact is that I turn 20 years old a month from today. So that is pretty frighting. Also if you were not aware the Olympics are going on right now and they might be a trap . Violens - Violent Sensation Descends Cake on Cake - Sea Microphone Chairlift - Evident Utensil Amazing Baby - Head Dress The 1900s - When I [...]
Well, personal concerns have kept me away from the internet for awhile (gasp) but ye olde show must go on. Ryan from Burly Time sent me some bright, beautiful instrumental pieces by a Detroit guitarist named Nick Schillace. Very laid back, exceptional listening for the stressful time I have had the last couple weeks. Of course today I was listening again and my brain said, "'19762 ... wait, isn't there a song called '19742?" Which of course caused a mad scramble through my CDs, and this post. 01. Nick Schillace - 1976 [...]
15. St Vincent Marry Me Beggars Banquet Landmines The way Annie Clark handles an electric guitar is sheer magic. The first time I heard "Paris Is Burning," a couple years ago, I said, I have to have more of this music. Finally, Clark came through for me and the result is excellent, layered rock and roll, bursting with sound and image: They gave me a medal for my valor / Leaden trumpets spit the soot of power. [...]
sparrow parade sea microphone francoise www.cakeoncake.com Cake On Cake is basically Helena Sundin, and her bio tells me that occasionally her friends help her out with instruments that she doesn't play. Although her bio also tells me she uses these instruments: "voices, piano, organ, rhodes, clavinet, metallophone, xylophone, keyboard, guitar, mandoline, flutes (recorder, cat & canary flute), harmonicas, melodica, different percussive instruments + some electronics." So I'm not [...]

Really simple, almost childlike arrangements revolve around a single line or thought, some delicate piano, flute, etc., and the irresistible layered voices of Swedish songbird Helena Sundin. Makes for exquisite bedtime music. More MP3s where these came from...follow the links below. rainmusic.free.fr www.desolationrecords.com www.myspace.com/cakeoncake www.cakeoncake.com
As promised... Goodness, where did the afternoon go? Luckily, I had these in HIGH DEMAND tracks to speed things along... Coco Freeman & Franz Ferdinand -- The Dark of the Matinee . For like, at least five years, the Gipsy Kings version of "Hotel California" from The Big Liebowski was on every mix CD I made. Though, I suppose I was guilty of using Selena's "Fotos y Recuerdos" (a cover of The Pretenders' "Back on the Chain Gang") just as often. I'm exceptionally pleased that I now have [...]
It seems a little absurd to be writing about a 2007 release before Halloween even rears it's ugly head but there is a method to my madness. Cake On Cake's new release, I Guess I Was Daydreaming , will be for sale on her US tour dates in November/December. This is basically a one woman band that expands a bit on tour to encompapass some of her friends. Cake On Cake is Helena Sudin from Umea and if she weren't classically trained and presently working on [...]
I need something in every day (and I specifically mean day here ... night not included) that makes me feel like I did something . Today's not looking too bright as they are many football games and other complications. So ... I got it down to this: do the laundry, do a post, or ... do both! I opted for the latter, thereby making my day super fulfilling. So ... those of you who aren't weekend readers ... you're missing out. Enjoy this on Monday. Yeah, I've got a terrible obsession with anything Swedish [...]
