This 2 and a half-minute, completely free instrumental comes from those crazy Norwegians Casiokids , who know something or two about a synth. Described as one of their "rarities and c-sides!", if this bleepy but cute track is their c-side / when they're not on the ball, they should tearing things up the next time they release an album.

This song is jammin’. It’s from the Norwegian band Casiokids off of their 2010 album Topp Stemning På Lokal Bar . These guys will be playing a few show in Austin for SXSW this week. Wish I was there! Fot I Hose Casiokids [ myspace . facebook . twitter . ]

Me sale sin querer pero siempre lo hago, esto de poner dos artistas de la misma nacionalidad seguidos, ahora le toca a Casiokids. Enjoy it! Casiokids: London Zoo by La 3e heure!

I saw Casiokids with Starfucker last night, and Good Lord were they good. Word is they have a split recording with of Montreal. You should check that out .
There's nothing like being introduced to a great new band by an equally great music video. I came across this clip from the director, Kristoffer Borgli, who made the brilliant Casiokids "En Vill Hest" video last year. His latest work is from Norwegian band Young Dreams (which also features some members of Casiokids). I've seen the video described as "Home Alone for the affluent young Norwegian set" with is pretty fitting (the lack of bandits played by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern notwithstanding). The beautifully shot video is filled with wonderful little moments [...]

Casiokids hail from Norway and their infectious music has spanned amongst a wide-range of audiences worldwide. Implementing unique instrumentations to their brand of music is their hallmark, using everything from congas to a cassette-recorder and samples from activists and children's radio shows. The Norwegian quintet's live show adds even more to the experience, which includes puppets and an assortment of videos projected all over. B-Sides got a moment with them at SXSW in Austin, TX and were as charming as one would expect.

Wednesday, March 23, 2011 March is definitely one month I always look forward to, and I contribute that entirely to SXSWeek - Austin's favorite time to show some love to film, music and technology. Buried into that schedule are four days dedicated to music, and I'm sure I speak for a lot of people when I say it makes for one hell of a week. SXSW ’11 goes into the books as being yet another awesome festival year - the weather was awesome, the venues were packed and the music was louder than ever. [...]

Bergen, Norway's CasioKids performed recently for Austin's SXSW at the House of Commons, and seriously had everyone shaking. An ensemble that consists of Ketil Endresen, Fredrik Vogsborg, Omar Johnsen and Kjetil Aabo, these guys deserve to have their own official SXSW showcase. Blending synth funk with interesting samples the band went through songs from their album Topp Stemning Pa Lokal Bar. "Togens Hule," "Min Siste Dag," and B-sides "Fot I Hose" and "Finn Bikkjen," CasioKids appealed to everybody at their show. The fans jumped, clapped and even added more cowbell when the band members passed percussion [...]

Le blog No Fear Of Pop ne manque pas de (bonnes) idées. La dernière en date, faire remixer par plusieurs artistes européens, des artistes norvégiens, passés ou présents, ou assimilés (Beach House et son titre Norway ...). Ainsi est née la mixtape Omstart - à télécharger par ici - et son tracklisting des plus boisés où l'on croise des noms souvent cités dans nos pages. Et s'il fallait n'en retenir qu'un, les parisiens de SayCet ( lire ) avec leur remix du Fot i Hose de Casiokids tiennent [...]

Monday, March 14, 2011 PART 1 You're probably wondering what the hell all those letters mean. For my coverage of South By Southwest, I offer a massive mix for a massive fest - the People To Get Excited About If You're Going To SXSW But Would Like Anyway Even If You Weren't Going Mix. The product of me quickly skimming through the list of artists and jotting down names that had me getting all giddy, the PTGEAIYGTSBWLAEIYWG mix doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of [...]
Starfucker - Death As A Fetish I feel I have lost a piece of my integrity for abbreviating Starfucker's name to STRFKR in the title. I'm sure the band struggled with that too. Nevertheless, it's been 2 and a half years since the last rookie self-titled Starfucker LP was released. Hence we move forward with [...]
