It's been a rather busy day at work, as I've spent a fairly large chunk of it in various meetings. Luckily none of them were a waste of time, which unfortunately isn't always the case. One negative consequence though; I've had very little time to check out any new stuff, so today I'll have to scan the "back catalogue" and stick to that good-ole "shorties" formula. Oh No Ono are giving away two recently published remixes. You do however have to register first to get access to the downloads. Don't I [...]
I'm still pissed about that cancellation . I know grumping and whining in a blog isn't comme il faut, but I just can't help myself! Instead Mushi will be playing at another venue in Helsingoer , so perhaps I should try that one instead? + The Nightcrawler Remember Danish shoegazers Dorias Baracca that I featured last year? 3 new tracks and 1 (what I believe must be a) re-recording is now streaming at Myspace . Plans [...]

Was für ein herrlicher Frühlingstag. Die Sonne scheint. Eine Liebeserklärung. Drei neue Songs von der besten britischen Band gibt es zu hören. Das sind natürlich die brachialen und wunderbaren Psychedelic-Rocker Amplifier um den Gitarren-Derwisch und Meister aller Effekt-Boards Sel Balamir bisher abgeliefert haben. Ich liebe die Musik der Drei aus Manchester. Gehts mir dreckig, bin ich wütend oder frustriert, höre ich "Everyday Combat" von dem besten werk der Briten. Die wunderbare, eher ruhige, spärische EP "The Astronaut Dismantles HAL". Neil Mahony, Bassist der Ausnahmeband schubste mich auf eine [...]
Today has been absolutely awful. Dead tired from a little too much drinking Saturday evening combined with having to meet a reporting deadline at work today. And for a few hours every blog hosted by blogger was stopped by our IT security system, which more or less would have put an end to my blogging career. Whatever caused this has now been changed and things are pretty much back to normal. Arriving in my mailbox this weekend were albums by Green Concorde , Didium & The Black Bonnie Picture [...]

Every blogger probably knows what it feels like finding a song that you cannot wait for the rest of the world to hear? If so, you should completely understand the feeling I've had for the past 24 hours since I stumbled upon Broken Satellit e by Dennis Mejdal , as I cannot recall the last time I heard a song so truly gorgeous and loveable as this one. No chance that the world will be reading this, but those of you who actually do, make sure you don't miss out on [...]
As mentioned in yesterday's post, the new and final Oliver North Boy Choir EP Blackmail will be out February 22. As a small appetizer the band has decided to give away a so-called "synth version" of the lead track. + Blackmail (2nd version) Danish electro-pop/rock act Volvoe has been awfully quiet for a long time, but news is that the recording of an album is progressing. Slowly, but progressing! The band's 2007 EP Organized [...]
Just a quick one, as time is sparse today. Bjarke Niemann of Spleen United has remixed the Green Concorde track Detroit , which the band is giving away for free. Still impatiently waiting for news on the release date of the band's sophomore album. UPDATE: According to Gaffa the album will be released late March/early April. + Detroit (Niemann Remix)
Hits in the Car has new music from Green Concorde : http://stytzer.blogspot.com/20 08/07/on-green-concorde.html

It's been a while since we last heard anything from the four lads in Danish alternative rock band Green Concorde and I'm probably no alone in my wait for a follow up to the (early) 2007 debut Ten Cities . Still there is no news on how the work is progressing or whether it's actually moving forward at all, but the first song recorded for the album Flowers of Romance (originally posted for streaming in January), is now available to download for free at Myspace . In my opinion it's [...]
Faste læsere af Hits In The Car har i den seneste tid kunnet konstatere, at indlæggene er dukket op med en uregelmæssighed (hvis de da overhovedet er dukket op), som er DSB værdig. En af de mange afledte konsekvenser af denne ustabilitet har beklageligvis været, at Støj på Frekvensen den seneste tid har glimret ved sit fravær. Pt. er der ikke meget, der tyder på forbedringer af "driften", men det er dog lykkedes at finde tid til at indsamle 5 numre til en ny omgang "Støj". Som blogger har jeg den seneste tid oplevet en [...]

Wraaauuh! Danske Speaker Bite Me bliver i denne uge testet på Det Elektriske Barometer med sangen 'Teach Me Tiger', som er en sang, man kan danse fjollet til. Det er næsten ved at være seks år siden, bandet sidst udgav noget, men d. 19 marts er der nyt. Pladen kommer, som jeg har forstået det, til at hedde noget så art som Action Painting og udkommer på Morningside Records . Teach Me Tiger Download [...]

The closing track Catch and Turn of the Green Concorde debut ( Ten Cities ) has been pumping on my stereo tonight, and since the band has granted me permission to post a track of the album in the blog, there really is no doubt in my head that this superb piece shall be the one. It's an epic/majestic track: sounding like something you'd expect to find exactly in-between Interpol and the shoegaze classics. Not sure if that description [...]

+ Green Concorde - The Anthem To Which We Fall

I received an email yesterday from Danish quartet Green Concorde asking me if I'd be interested in posting the single The Anthem To Which We Fall in the blog. Some of you might recall that the band left a really positive impression when I saw them warming up for Spleen United in March , so ever since I read that the band has been signed to a label , I've been looking forward to the band's debut album. So needless to say I'm nothing [...]
