Allerede lidt over en uge inde i 2012 en stærk kandidat til årets danske plade landet! Mads Björn går en lys fremtid i møde som musiker. Ellers er der ingen retfærdighed til. Så er det sagt! I morgen den 9. januar udgiver han pladen Monolith, en magisk, stemningsfuld plade med 11 alternative popsange. Det drømmende udtryk er gennemgående på tværs af både rock, world og folk. Spændvidden er altså stor. Monolith er indspillet i et hus nær stranden i Thorsminde ved Vesterhavet. Mads Björn står på imponerende vis bag alle instrumenter og stemmer [...]

Årabrot Not resting on its laurels for one second, Ja Ja Ja have managed to top trump even January's curator (none other than Tom Robinson of 6Music – if you weren't there you missed out!). For Ja Ja Ja February is a double-whammy, with not one, but two heavyweight curators for our evening of Nordic muso love-in. Phil Hebblethwaite and John Doran, respective founders of the print and on-line music bibles that are The Stool Pigeon and The Quietus , are joining forces to bring you the loudest, darkest, most out-there and frankly [...]
The 2010 Music Alliance Pact flashback Every month throughout 2010 I've had the pleasure of being able to represent Denmark in the awesome blog network Music Alliance Pact (MAP), now featuring 36 blogs from 36 countries around the globe who have joined forced to bring people a free taste of what's going on musically in their respective nations on the 15 of every month. It's the gift that keeps on giving, and for this year-end retrospect I thought I'd share the 12 [...]

The midsummer festivities are near and some of the MAP bloggers are already enjoying a well-deserved summer vacation, so this month's MAP edition shrinks to 28 songs and countries. Still it is a very enjoyable selection of the best music around the globe, so while you pack your swimming suit and sunglasses, listen to what [...]
Llega la mitad de Junio, y con ello una nueva edición del Music Alliance Pact (MAP), la red musical formada por más de 30 blogs que (casi) todos los días 15 nos trae sus reportes desde los rincones del mundo. Este mes celebramos el regreso triunfal de The Pop Cop , blog pionero en esta iniciativa y que el mes pasado sufrió su bajada por parte de Google. ¡Bienvenidos de vuelta! La edición actual coincidió felizmente con el lanzamiento oficial de Historial de Caídas, el nuevo disco de El Sueño De La [...]
sorry everyone for the late posting of this month's MAP , the monthly offering by bloggers from all over the world introducing the music from their respective countries. as always, we have our local music ambassador brian koh anchoring this segment, with his song recommendation of the month from the mysterious elsa x . SINGAPORE : I'm Waking Up To... Elsa X - Baby Steps On [...]
Pensaba escribir algo épico para esta nueva entrega de MAP , con todo y eso de que los blogs musicales siguen cayendo como moscas, pero doy asco con el drama, además en esta ocasión no me sirve la protesta ya que hay algo que celebrar y eso es el regreso de The Pop Cop , Jason lo ha conseguido, ha logrado recuperar sus archivos y ahora está de vuelta , felicitaciones a nuestro amigo escocés. Este mes SoTB no propone nada nuevo, más bien, hace un alto para recordar a una de las mejores bandas [...]
Here is this month's Music Alliance Pact, which somehow managed to be the only regular feature on The Pop Cop which wasn't a casualty of Googlegate . If you're a new reader, here's how it works: each MAP blog picks a song from their own country which is then made available as a free mp3 download on all of our individual blogs. Since MAP's inception in October 2008, it has been my job to take charge of the organising, editing and diplomacy, but because of youknowwhat, my colleagues in Romania, Babylon Noise , took [...]

Tuleb taas tõdeda, et Apelsin ei valetanudki ja aeg tõesti ei peatu. Alles ju oli viieteistkümnes kuupäev aga täna on jälle. MAPimaailm kihises vahepeal hoopis muusikakaugematel teemadel kui muidu - nimelt otsustas Google vahepeal MAPi algataja ja eestvedaja The Pop Copi kinni panna. Nüüd on see uues kohas jälle lahti. Eesti poolt panin seekord välja tõeliselt lärmaka vene juurtega rock'n'rolli. Läksime. EESTI : Popop Junk Riot [...]

28 songs, 28 music blogs, 28 countries JAPAN : JPOP Lover Kafuka - Tracer Check the unreleased track from the underground Electronica, Hyogo, Japan. Kafuka ・just like 20th century's famous bohemian novelist - is an indie bedroom musician with ambient taste, playing lo-fi Guitar. Deeply weird, but satisfying post-rock with synthwave jams. [...]
It's the 15th of the month, Music Alliance pact day! Music Alliance Pact (MAP) is a collaboration between 34 blogs from all over the world, and every month, each of us present a new band from our country. All presentations are put together in this huge blogpost, and presented on the same day in all the MAP blogs. Massive promotion for the bands! This month, several of the MAP blogs seem to have taken their summer vacation, so we're only 28 in the June edition. Lots of good music anyway! [...]
În primăvara lui 2005 niște oameni se adunau și formau probabil prima trupă de acid/nu-jazz din Romania. În decembrie, același an, erau prezentați de BBC ca fiind una din puținele trupe care promovează genul în țară. Luna aceasta vi-i prezentăm și noi în megacompilația MAP, care se poate descărca integral, de AICI . ROMANIA : Babylon Noise Butterflies In My Stomach - Another You [...]
A favor de um mundo melhor, musicalmente, com muito mar e sem rio, apresenta-se o Music Alliance Pact já com bóias nos braços e a nadar contra o mundo. Sem bocejo e para não bocejar, para matar saudades e envenenar a modernidade podre de uma maioria de um "novo rock" com muitos e "importantes" amigos e muito pouco talento, regressa João Peste e os seus rapazes, com Zé Pedro Moura a insistir e a persistir, e a darem-nos ar puro contra a bocejante normalidade musical. "Contra Mundum" é o novo disco que foi ontem editado e "Ritual Transdisco" é o [...]
I'm not crazy about Kellermensch 's songs and I don't think I ever will be, but there's no denying that they are a compelling live act. Above is one of three new live clips the band just posted to YouTube.
So "MS Maniac Kriss" sent us an e-mail with a link to the below video of Denmark's Kellermensch performing a song called "Moribund Town." And at first I was like "Is this even metal?" and then I was like "What's with the outfits, douches?" and then I looked up the meaning of "keller" and I [...]
