Once more, here is October's edition of the Music Alliance Pact . For those of you who don't know about MAP, it's a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It's sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. This month we've welcomed one new country: Estonia !. This edition showcases 34 tracks from bands around the world and marks the one-year anniversary since IGIF's inaugural edition of MAP debuted [...]

ARGENTINA: Zonaindie Lipgloss - Land Of Lords This band from Buenos Aires released their first EP a couple of months ago and Land Of Lords is our favorite song from it.

It's been a year since Jason from The Pop Cop started Music Alliance Pact, a loose group of country specific blogs such as the one you're reading to showcase to each other's readership. Each month I choose a song that I think reflect the best of Australian music has to offer to the blogs. They are not necessarily the biggest hits or the most popular songs, but more what I think has the best chance of being listened to in the international blog readership. I hope you've enjoyed them because we will continue to do this as long [...]

Big or small, democratic or communist, there is a place [...]
The Oslo-quartet Firefly Effect is a band I've had on my to-blog-about list for some time now. They recently released their brilliant debutalbum "Everything is beautiful and you are the reason" on Perfect pop / Solerød records , full of charming indiepop-songs with organs, boy/girl harmonies and jangly guitars. I'm sometimes slightly reminded by older, perfect Perfect Pop-acts like The Tables and The Blind Bats when I listen to Firefly Effect, - other times I get a [...]
