You may (or may not) have noticed we haven't been posting much lately, and as much as we would like to say our excuse is we are on some remote island sipping on drinks with umbrellas and unpronounceable fruits in them...we are actually locked up in a dark baltimore apartment working on the inner workings of the site. We promise we are almost done, and it will make the site way better. So please bear with us. In the meantime, here is some news, mp3's etc. that have caught our ear lately. [...]
Lykke Li - "Everybody But Me" (diskjokke Remix) [ d/l ] Kleerup feat. Lykke Li - " Until We Bleed " Swedish chanteuse (that's a beautiful word ain't it? pardon the dweeb moment!) Lykke Li is great. We're late. Deal with it. But her thoughts on style, narrow-minded categorizations of female singers and African music was more than enough to make us take a looksi. Or, a listensi? Hm, not as smoove soundin'. Anyway, peep the quick Q & A here . And biggups to DAZED . img/ [...]
Air France - No Excuses Ladyhawke - Back of the Van (Mock and Toof Mix) The Black Ghosts ft. Damon Albarn - Repetition Kills You LCD Soundsystem - Freakout / Starry Eyes Andreas Kleerup ft. Neneh Cherry - Forever Gillette - Short Dick Man (bsbtrfdclub remix) [...]
Long before the muxtape , there was "A Baker's Dozen". And it's back. Volume 12. Enjoy. 01 - Lykke Li - " Dance Dance Dance ". " When I'm shaking my hips, look for the swing, the words are written in the air... ". My #2 favorite song of the past month (with #3 here and #1 coming up). [...]
But not when it's because you're waiting for your car to come back from the shop. Jay-Z played the Glastonbury Festival this weekend, and threw a big proverbial middle finger up to Noel Gallagher by covering one of his greatest hits, probably because Noel said he didn't think Jay was a good fit for the festival . Noel is a moron. he also dropped this fantastic "American Boy" remix: [...]
Stockholm, Sweden Sure, Andreas Kleerup may look a little bit like a pedophile, but he's an outstanding musician and producer. My Swedish girlfriend Lykke Li lends her voice for "Until We Bleed" from Kleerup's self-titled debut. "Until We Bleed" Kleerup on MySpace Kleerup on The Hype Machine
Producer Andreas Kleerup (the lead credit behind 2007's Robyn-assisted gem "With Every Heartbeat") might prefer to embed his synth-shimmered pop with the pretty female pop voices born in his Sweden homeland, but that doesn't mean he isn't capable of handling mic duties all on his own. For "On My Own Again", a track from his recently released self-titled debut, the beatmaker bravely enters the
That's the tagline on Marit Bergman 's site. Sheena Beaston approves! I was first introduced to Marit's song Out on the Piers last summer, and it is a perfect piece of pop pleasure. With the release of Kleerup's self-titled album, we're treated to another vocal delight courtesy of Ms. Bergman. 3 A.M. has the typical Kleerup formula behind it, b ut it's Bergman's vocal inflections and gently nursed verses that I love. As she writes: It can be [...]
I honestly thought I was madly in love with Kleerup 's Longing for Lullabies with Titiyo . Until I heard the Hunden & Pipan remix of said song. Oh yeah. That's the stuff. Dancey, trancey, housey, heavy. A bit drum and bass-y. A whistle pops in. We like. A lot. mp3: Kleerup & Titiyo - Longing for Lullabies (Hunden & Pipan Rmx) (if you'd like a digital full [...]
Some things to make you smile: Gee Wizz posting more regularly after brief hiatus. Le Castlevania @ Pogo this week after missing his flight last week. (Use Gee Wizz guestlist for cheap guaranteed entry) The fact that you can now join the Gee Wizz last.fm group we just started (CLICK HERE TO JOIN) ... who knows it might have sexy results. Demi Moore's burger (lol). Remembering what you have instead of dwelling on what you do not. Smell of shampoo. The songs [...]
Kleerup, famous Stateside for his collaboration with Robyn on "With Every Heartbeat," has an album out. It's interesting, though perhaps too full of collaborations that don't all make sense side by side and sound rather homogeneous. I'm more intrigued by his solo efforts, including "Tower of Trellick," which I've ever so kindly provided a link to below. Trying to find something else indicative and legal online, I came across this acoustic performance of Kleerup from a Swedish TV show. It suggests that his last name is actually Kleerup. Which I find funny, even if that sounds insensitive. Anyway, Andreas is [...]
Some ultra catchy music to give your ears a little break, loving the black kids remix.... Lykke Li - I'm Good, I'm Gone Lykke Li - I'm Good I'm Gone [Black Kids remix] Lykke Li - Little Bit Kleerup - Until We Bleed (With Lykke Li)
Beau disque que ce premier album du Suédois Kleerup . Repoussant sans cesse l'écoute de ce disque de peur de ne pas retrouver les frissons de "With every heartbeat" , plus réjouissant numéro 1 (en Angleterre en tout cas) depuis des lustres, et qui reste à ce jour son meilleur morceau. On pouvait s'attendre à la lecture de la liste des invitées (Neneh Cherry, Titiyo, Lykke Li, Marit Bergman...) à une compilation de singles sans réelle cohérence, or tout se tient dans cette production sans doute trop [...]
![Lunch Break[ing and Entering.]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1095967_lg.jpg)
Just an FYI, but if you're ever in the Tennessee Tower in Nashville, take the stairs . I found myself wandering up them today, past the floors I knew were safely marked, past the familiar signs and overhead lights until I was no longer in a stairwell, but in a small, dark hallway, surrounded on all sides by large blue doors. " There is no way this is real ," I thought, turning my head in circles until my eyes settled one marked " Do NOT enter ." I tried it, tapping the dull metal handle a few times just in [...]
Svenske Kleerup har efterhånden for alvor fået slået sit navn fast - ikke mindst på grund af det internationale electropop-hit, With Every Heartbeat , som han stod bag i samarbejde med den ligeledes svenske Robyn , som efterhånden længe har været at finde på diverse radiostationer og musik-kanaler. Nu er Kleerup atter engang aktuel med et debutalbum. Grundlæggende er vi enige med de forskellige anmeldere, når de rasler hans album lidt ned - for det bliver lige præcis lidt for kedeligt på nogle tracks, mens at andre af hans tracks bestemt er [...]
" Sometimes the aim for reality feels too unrealistic. Sometimes you have to indulge in sweet distractions, gentle escapes and beautiful illusions to be able to stand this excuse for an existence . Sometimes you're just too young ." * The Tough Alliance vs. Taken by Trees - Taken Too Young "I'm naked, I'm numb. I'm stupid, I'm staying. [...]
Yes, watch as I force my musical obsessions onto you. Kleerup f. Robyn - With Every Heartbeat Further proof that Swedish people know how to make fucking pop music. I randomly discovered Kleerup (full name Andreas Kleerup), a record producer, because one of the other tracks on his self-titled debut compilation features Lykke Li (my future Wifey.) This track is crazy catchy, delicious and good for you. It's like if Total cereal tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but in music [...]
Kleerup Until We Bleed (Cello)
Have you heard Cyndi Lauper 's new album? Chances are probably not, but I've got you covered. With my good Sherlock Holmes type skills. See, the first record I recall owning is Cyndi Lauper's She's So Unusual , so the Clauper holds a special place in my heart. That, and I'm 97% sure that I have a tiny gay man inside me that makes me dance all the time and gives me the eclectic music tastes I have. (I mean that in the most genuinely respectable [...]
Kleerup ft. Lykke Li - "Until We Bleed (ft. Lykke Li)" . Kleerup ft. Lykke Li - "Until We Bleed (Mikael Karlsson cello version)" . Kleerup ft. Lykke Li - "Until We Bleed (Warsawastudion remix)" . Gavin and Lucy loved each other so much that they threw all their luggage into the river. They drove with their suitcases and trunks to the riverbank and threw them all right in. "We'll never need anything except each other," said Lucy, and Gavin put traced her lips with his thumb. That night they had a fight, screaming and slamming, and [...]
