Tweet Been a while since an electronic tracks has been kickin' around here but 'Every Other Day' is an absolute beaut. The Brooklyn based couple behind Jonka offer a semi-gospel vocal that is propelled towards the heavens courtesy of an uplifting trancey backdrop. Of course the audio sounds better than that awkward description, so much that it could easily straddle the line between lounge scene setter and dancefloor filler. It is ripe for a remix too as there is plenty of possibilities [...]

Brooklyn electro duo Jonka is back with a brand new single and music video called, "Every Other Day". From their forthcoming album, "Pinks and Blues".

Anyone remember the colorful psychedelic video for the wonderful The Nana Song by Jonka ? If you don't (shame, shame on you) check it here . Now a video for a second track off their debut album Slow and Steady Wins the Race has been published and though Think About It isn't quite as lovely as The Nana Song (how could it possibly be), the video [...]
Jonka profoundly delivers their unique love story on MySpace, "The grandson of a blind subway musician. A Kindergarten teacher from Brooklyn. They found love and they found a voice. Jonka grew up in the 19802s at a time when music and production emanated a larger than life sound." Their sound is colorful, playful, with a [...]

Δεν έχω και πολλά να πω για το σημερινό μας τραγούδι. Είναι ένα από τα πολλά 'περίεργα' pop τραγούδια που συνήθως μόνο εγώ βρίσκω καταπληκτικά. Ίσως μου γράψετε πάλι ότι τραγούδια σαν κι αυτό ακούει ο παππούς σας για να θυμάται τα νιάτα του, ίσως πάλι να διαβάσετε ότι αν googlάρετε το όνομα ενός συγκροτήματος και πέσετε πρώτα στη Χειμερινή Ακαδημία τότε πρέπει να τρέξετε μακρυά.. Ναι, θυμίζει ένα εκατομμύριο πράγματα, ναι, είναι άλλο ένα συγκρότημα που αναβιώνει τον ήχο των 80s, ναι, φταίει και η άνοιξη που μπαίνει σιγά σιγά.. το Nana Song όμως των Brooklynέζων [...]
I mentioned Brooklyn duo Jonka a couple of weeks ago and called their music " indie pop tunes in electro-pop surroundings ". When I wrote that I especially had the glorious The Nana Song in mind, which has "indie pop" written all over it, with its instant charm, catchiness and lovely boy/girl vocals. The duo has now finished a (rather colorful, somewhat psychedelic inspired and really wonderful) video for the track and (even better) has been so kind to give me permission to post the song. Thanks in bunches! If [...]

The Jeremy Sparrow debut EP This Summer Was Just Such A Bore is now available from iTunes . The music is labeled by the artist himself as " post-indie ", as a (much needed?) reaction to the overuse of the indie-term. And he's probably quite right, as, had I not had this information, I would undoubtedly have taken the safe bet and called it "indie-rock". So I guess refraining from calling it anything now is the wisest move? Or should I risk an eye and try something like lo-fi, garage rock [...]
