The Doozer's fourth album Keep It Together releases on January 31st, and you would likely be disappointed if you missed it. Sure, I know a certain artist with the initials LDR has an album out that day, but if you want something with folk charm and chamber pop arrangements, I recommend The Doozer. Recorded with 11 players, the new album features guitars, piano, bass, drums, a string quartet, horns, and vocals reminiscent of Jens Lekman. What more could you ask for? Hear the new album track "Fold Up Chair" below. Read more [...]
It's hard to imagine that just a few short months ago we were enjoying sunny summer days. 2011 was my best year yet, having achieved a few milestones: four and a half years running FensePost, riding my bike from Seattle to Portland and logging over 1,000 total on those two wheels between January and December, enjoying life with the love of my life (Andi), and a few defining mindset changes that put the two of us on a path to minimalism and frugality. All of this has led to happiness. That the [...]

El talentoso cantautor sueco Jens Lekman está dando los detalles finales a su nuevo LP , que viene largamente demorado. Para informar sobre el estado de su nuevo disco, Lekman eligió una curiosa forma, pero podemos saber que su nuevo trabajo tratará, una vez más, sobre corazones rotos y amor. Lekman subió a su blog Smalltalk una conversación de Skype entre sí mismo y su persona a los 17 años, para contar el estado en [...]
La última vez que escuchamos de nuestro sueco favorito, Jens Lekman , fue con la publicación de su más reciente EP, An Argument with Myself , una placa que según dijo él mismo contenía temas descartados de su nueva producción, la cual todavía no tiene fecha de salida pero de la que el músico ya ofreció algunos adelantos en un curioso post de su SmallTalk . El músico utilizó una llamada ficticia en Skype entre el Jens de hoy y el que era cuando tenía 17 años [...]

![[Introducing] – Kim Ki O](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3934638_lg.jpg)
Tweet "Who is that anyway?" Answer: Kim Ki O ! Hailing from Istanbul, Turkey, electronic musical duo Kim Ki O (which, if you haven't guessed from my incredibly witty opening sentence, means "Who is that, anyway?" in Turkish) is made up of Ekin Sanaç on synths, keys, vocals, beats and Berna Göl on bass, vocals, beats. The two friends have known each other for over fifteen years, and have been hard at work making music as Kim Ki O since 2006. Their music is [...]
Tuesday, December 13, 2011 2011 has been a great year for music, and I've enjoyed so much of what it had to offer. However, along with the new music I enjoyed, I also discovered a lot of music that I totally stupidly slept on. Whether it was the artist or just the song, apparently I just wasn't paying attention at the time. So here follows that top ten songs (in no particular order) that I've been jamming on this year, that did not come out this year. - [...]
When The xx won the Mercury Prize in 2010, the UK knew they had a winner. When "Shelter" became a pivotal track to feature on mixed CDs everywhere, there was a real sense that an alternative and edgy group had propelled into the highly recognizable. I think the next one is about to emerge. Resonating
If 2010 was the year of the EP , 2011 was the year of the... not EP. While 73s and Bandcamp singles haven't killed the album off just yet, there was no shortage of tasty bite-size release this year. 10. Wet Years - Sleepy Cove cassette From the opening moments of "No Surf" - guitar murmurings that sound like gulls' cries - Wet Years make their beach allegiance clear, but the band dips into reverb only for the final brushstrokes on an [...]

Another great year of music is coming to a close. Below are my 30 favourite international songs of the year (last week I put up my 30 favourite Irish tracks of the year). There could have been plenty more but I'm sure you'll find lots of other tracks to enjoy [Read more]
Words by Jacob Barron To my knowledge, no artist has risen to the challenge I issued in last year's edition of Soundtracking: Your Thanksgiving to create music endemic to this most gluttonous of holidays. There's apparently now a best Thanksgiving movie, at least according to this person , but still no Thanksgiving album. And so we gather again this year, to give thanks, to catch up with family members, to politely ignore their occasionally racist remarks, and to check out the surprisingly numerous albums suited to any and all of these [...]
Oriel Joans give listeners what they expect from Swedish pop: infectiously light key progressions, trickly acoustics, and gorgeous melodies that evolve from folk-tinged whispers to grandiose hook-filled spectacles. Such is the case with "Chin Up", the Swedish quartet's new single. Stylistically, there's not much separating them from recognizable Swedish pop staples like Loney Dear or
![[Folk] Jens Lekman – I Don’t Know What To Do With This Information](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3879594_lg.jpg)
Swedish singer Jens Lekman is a long-time favourite of ours, thanks to his folky tracks that are peppered with lyrical witticisms. He recently went to London's Maida Vale studios to lay down some acoustic versions of songs from his latest EP, 'An Argument With Myself' , and recorded this new track too. 'I Don't Know What To Do With This Information' is more down-tempo and relaxed than his other work, but it's a great track with a wonderful guitar accompaniment and thought-provoking lyrics. Jens Lekman - 'I Don't Know What [...]
Swedish crooner Jens Lekman took to London's storied Maida Vale studios to record an acoustic session for the BBC; along with some new songs from his latest release An Argument With Myself , he performed a brand new track, ingeniously titled "I Don't Know What To Do With This Information." After all, when you don't know what to do with something, why not write a song about it? It's short, simple, and sweet, with an African-inspired guitar line and seasonally appropriate meditations on family, love, and loss – we're excited to hear an [...]
El magnífico Jens Lekman está listo para presentar su nuevo LP , después de haber lanzado este año un EP titulado An Argument With Myself . En esta oportunidad, podemos degustar una nueva canción que parecería formar parte de su último esfuerzo, I Don't Know What To Do With This Information . Se trata de otro esfuerzo acústico que vuelve a tratar la temática de las Fiestas (sospechamos debido a su cercanía). La canción fue [...]
