The Man behind Dominant Legs. I'm quite adamant in saying this but Dominant Legs is new to me. Clawing Out at The Walls has been playing in constant repeat in my head for the past week but I've only heard of them almost a month ago. If you didn't get a wind of these guys, I suggest you do now or you'll pass something amazing. The man pictured above is San Franciscan native Ryan Lynch , the one primarily [...]

More music from California today. Dominant Legs are a duo from San Francisco. They are Hannah Hunt and Ryan William Lynch, with the latter already being part of another west coast band GIRLS as guitarist. Dominant Legs release their debut EP, 'Young At Love And Life' on August 17th 2010 Myspace
Thanks to my buddy Ethan from Indian Rebound for recommending Dominant Legs to me. Ethan's a huge fan of Girls and was well aware of the fact that Girls guitarist Ryan Lynch had started Dominant Legs with Hannah Hunt and was onto something great. The San Francisco duo have a great vintage 60s pop sound that is vibrant and exciting as they come. These songs will make you want to go outside and explore, breaking out in dance on the way. Feel good tunes are what Dominant Legs do. I'm feeling damn good. They [...]
Dominant Legs are a San Francisco duo made up of Ryan Lynch and Hannah Hunt. Lynch is best known for his work with another San Francisco band - last year's indie sweethearts Girls. But don't expect a similar type of output here; Dominant Legs still makes nostalgic, shiny pop, but they employ a more electronic [...]

I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. And I don’t want to get to the end, or to tomorrow, even, and realize that my life is a collection of meetings and pop cans and errands and receipts and dirty dishes. I want to eat cold tangerines, and sing out loud in the car with the windows open, and wear pink shoes, and stay up all night laughing, and paint my walls the exact color of the sky right now. I want to sleep hard on clean white sheets, and throw parties, and eat [...]
Dominant Legs San Francisco Hannah Hunt & Ryan William Lynch Our first tour was backing up Girls last November. Since then we played our very first show outside of the United States in Paris, worked on a number of new songs. We're due to come out with our very first release this month. We've been rehearsing for our shows with Mystery Jets in September and recently added a drummer to our [...]
Escucharemos Mondaymix - 2 De Agosto on Mixcloud This week’s mix kicks off with my favorite track off Arcade Fire’s new album The Suburbs , which you should definitely get your hands on. Then we’ve got one of my favorite bands from London, Noah and the Whale, with a tad of remixing. From the many redone versions of Phoenix’s 1901 I chose a nice reggae remix by Ivan Beck— it’s pretty good to hear after a hundred techno renditions. Also this week I decided to toss in two [...]

Douglas Martin never really had a crush on Tiffany. Or Molly Ringwald. It’s safe to say Ryan Lynch knows a thing or two about nostalgia. In his primary employment as the guitarist of Girls, he assists in delivering heart-on-sleeve quasi-sock-hop music for kids neither old nor knowledgeable enough to remember Elvis Costello in his prime. Dominant Legs , the project he fronts along with keyboardist Hannah Hunt, he draws his inspiration from an entirely different source: the kitschy drum machines and glittery synths of 80’s mainstream pop. As we plunge headlong into a decade [...]
Our Husband = Villages There are a number of great couple/couple-esque duos making there way into the blog world, giving us treats and goodies in the form of poppy, dreamy, sexy, disco jams, among others. Our Husband is just doing it’s part to fill Australia’s quota of such duos. The US has plenty, i.e. KISSES , Dominant Legs , Tennis , to name a few. The UK has Summer Camp of course, so it’s only appropriate that the Aussies step it up down under. [...]

Dominant Legs - Clawing Out at the Walls Mycket bra pop från denna San Francisco-akt med fantastiska och lugna trummor som tar åt sig ordentligt med plats i låten. Melodin är så pass bra att man nästan inte vill att det ska vara någon sång alls, egentligen.
Dominant Legs Et si tous les foreplays se faisaient par trois à présent ? Moins de billets, autant de morceaux, ça me plaît bien, pas vous ? Si je devais miser quelques pièces sur un groupe qui risque de méchamment buzzer dans les prochains mois, Dominant Legs serait dans ma shortlist ( MySpace ). Ils seront la première partie des Mystery Jets lors de leurs prochains concerts new-yorkais et californiens, ils sont déjà partis en tournée avec Girls ... Bref, ils arrivent, ne loupez pas [...]

Here it is! The July mix. It features the songs I've been listening to while enjoying the Summer sun and warmth (or at least the songs I listen to while dreaming about escaping the San Francisco fog). It is a pretty straight forward mix of happy, sunny pop tunes featuring a lot of the best tracks that I've promoted on Musical Pairings this month in addition to a few sneak peeks at upcoming posts. For example, Cults will probably be on repeat in our home for the next two months after witnessing their opening set for Maps & Atlases last [...]

Hey man, been a while and in all that time, lots of shit has come down the pipe and into the hearts and minds of those who care about what's currently in the pipe! I, not wanting to be left out in the cold and lead you astray, warshed up, on the shore, left dead & dying, whilst all the cool kids pass us by on this highway of intertubal sci-fi space canals, felt it was time and I was due to check in on the hyped up & hopped up pulse of los musica! Let's pull up [...]
I apologize for the lack of original, fresh, mind-blowing content the past couple days, but we're in the middle of some changes. Turns out, we're doing better than expected, and Chill Milk is going to need to expand. Thank you for all your support, dudes. In the meanwhile, here's some minimal love from Linus Loves: [...]

I've been super busy so this post is a bit late in coming, but there has been some fantastic summery music emerging from the blogosphere the past few weeks. Cut Copy released a new single that reveals a rather significant stylistic shift for the group that leans towards current beachy trends. We also hear from previous buzzers Tennis, Yuck, and Twin Shadow who continue to drop excellent gems onto the blogs. For the pocket change we have tracks from a few blog-hyped hazers Dominant Legs , Still Corners , and Beige . Cut [...]

Dominant Legs consists of San Francisco-based duo Hannah Hunt and Ryan William Lynch. Their debut EP, Young at Love and Life , is scheduled for release soon on Lefse Records . Lynch's vocals call to mind Belle & Sebastian frontman Stuart Murdoch, and are accented beautifully by Hunt's lovely harmonies. I'm officially adding my name to the list of folks who are eagerly anticipating this debut! Dominant Legs - Clawing Out at the Walls Don’t forget to “heart” our songs on hypem if you like [...]

Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue.

The song features [...]
