Género: Indie electronic pop. Nacho Cano es Twin Cabins y viceversa. Nacido en Ciudad de México, se estrenó este mismo año con el EP One Year y ahora repite con I'm Sure EP. Instalado en Sant Diego, influenciado por el sol, este multinstrumentalista es un explorador sonoro. Cool Kids , la muestra del disco, es ensoñadora, huele a playa, a la melancolía de ese verano que recuerdas con tristeza y cariño a la vez. Mientras suena, sonríes. Pero no dudéis en profundizar en [...]
Director Wes Anderson teamed up with animation studio Laika ( Coraline , etc.) for a series of ad spots for Sony's new Android-based Xperia smartphone. Sony asked kids what they thought made the Xperia phones so smart, and then animated their responses. The 62-second ad required nine unique sets, 37 custom-made models, and over 10,000 man hours of labor to create, according to the Verge . I've been waiting to see the full ad after seeing the brief making-of video last week ( which you can watch here ). It's a clever and cute concept, but beyond that [...]
7 Dollar Taxi ist die Schweizer Überflieger Indieband, die mit ihrem neuen Singlehit nebst passendem Video "Sputnik & Laika" (VÖ: 09.03.2012)in der Schweiz eine der bekanntesten Bands ist und sogar bereits vom NME geadelt wurden: "Some might say it's a slur to say this harmony-drenched Swiss lot sound like The Wannadies. I wouldn't, and those [...] [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

As the last leaves fall to the ground and winter's chill finally begins to descend on Atlanta, it seems the perfect time for Tree Witch , aka Aaron Hendrickson of Nigredo , to unveil another of his icy ambient drone soundscapes. Much like his work on last year's excellent Mintaka EP, "Laika" is cast from a bleak minimalist palette, one that invokes the stark barrenness of dead trees and desolate snowswept fields. His cinematic approach utilizes static noise and droning synths that build and ebb into an unsettling expanse of sound. There's a certain haunting beauty [...]
The makers of Coraline , are putting the finishing touches on a stop-motion, ghost-filled zombie comedy in 3D, called ParaNorman. It looks quite good and Laika has assembled the voices of Kodi Smit-McPhee, John Goodman, Anna Kendrick, Casey Affleck, Elaine Stritch, Leslie Mann, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Jeff Garlin. The use of Donovan's "Season of the Witch" really creates a groovy and unnerving sense in this trailer. Fight the paranormal plague on August 17, 2012. [via devour ]

It's time for this month's Music Alliance Pact, the monthly project that presents The Pop Cop's favourite song by an up-and-coming Scottish talent, chosen under the most stringent code of quality control and handed to you as a free mp3 download with a bit of right-clickery. As Scotland's representative, I've plumped for something pretty seismic by THE BARENTS SEA from Perth - I really hope you like it. Be sure to check out the other countries' selections that make up this [...]

Deși există de mai bine de doi ani, eu am dat de Algebra anul ăsta, odată cu apariția debutului. Unul foarte promițător, aș zice eu, care se poate descărca integral, gratuit, de AICI .

Рад сообщить о том, что с этого месяца Big Echo входит в организацию Music Alliance Pact, включающую в себя музыкальные блоги из 37 стран мира. Оказывается, у них никогда не было представителя из России. Именно поэтому, каждый месяц мы будем выбирать хорошую русскую песню, которую не стыдно показать зарубежным коллегам. Для дебюта на мировой площадке я выбрал одну из самых любимых композиций этого года – «Space Farewell» новосибирской команды The Patience, сочетающей красивый вокал с энергией живых выступлений. Несмотря на несколько групп, играющих готику и метал, я крайне доволен июльским сборником. Рекомендую обратить особое внимание на выбор товарищей [...]

SINGAPORE : I'm Waking Up To... In Each Hand A Cutlass - A Universe Made Of Strings Outlaws, stargazers and free riders - that's the sense of freedom apparent in the debut album of In Each Hand A Cutlass. The masterpiece is called A Universe Made Of Strings, and while allusions to string theory and parallel dimensions are in order, no-one can deny the sprawling ambition that the group have laboured to achieve. Swirling [...]

I've got a quick Christmas Eve post for everyone today, before the circus known as the Ukrainian Christmas Feast begins at my family's place. With all the recent hoopla surrounding a possible Arcade Fire release in 2010, now seems like a good time to post another tune from the band. If you haven't heard the aforementioned hoopla, early on in December Marcus Mumford of Mumford and Sons revealed that producer Markus Dravs had been working with Arcade Fire for the last 6 months. The following day, Rolling Stone announced (though it was quickly refuted) that the [...]
