I often tire of attempting to dish out descriptions & offer opinions on music; so just get an earful of these. ♫ While My Guitar Gently Weeps - Dandelion Wine from the exceedingly promising Ukulele Beatles Project , although it's not yer usual twee ukulele cover song at all - this is a fine interpretation of a much loved song. Not sure you'd know about the uke if no-one said anything.... my kinda uke song!. ♫ The Horizon - Stina Stjern [...]
MAP - Music Alliance Pact #5 Nuovo appuntamento con l'esperimento internazionale del Music Pact Alliance (riassunto delle puntate precedenti: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 ). A questo giro i nomi già noti sono un po' più presenti (vedi Broken Records, Let's Wrestle, Here We Go Magic...) ma mi sembra ci sia comunque parecchia carne al fuoco. Per chi vuole scaricare tutta la lista in colpo solo ecco il link . Come al solito, commenti e consigli [...]
AMERICA – I Guess I'm Floating Here We Go Magic – Tunnelvision Brooklyn's Here We Go Magic is the bedroom folk-pop project of Luke Temple, who is releasing his self-titled debut this year. He has been praised by Sufjan Stevens and Ben Gibbard for his uniquely gorgeous vocals and meticulous lo-fi production aesthetic. Tunnelvision is the first single – one part Shakespearean sonnet and one part circus music, swirling in a beautiful mess of [...]
Este mês, a Music Alliance Pact foi notícia no Mtv da Roménia (foto), graças ao blog romeno, que faz parte desta "liga", o Babylon Noise.P.S. Sejam pacientes, por favor, ainda não tive a oportunidade de traduzir todos os textos dos blogs.

Here's February's edition of the Music Alliance Pact. For those of you who don't know about MAP, it's a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It's sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. This month we've welcomed Mexican blog Club Fonograma to bring the total participation to 22 nations. Our contribution this month includes an excellent track from Brooklyn-based Here We Go Magic . Nathaniel's decree has become somewhat [...]

PressPlay - chosen by our Portugese MAP blog partner - Posso Ouvir Um Disco? .

My Irish contribution is Tenaka who I suggest you get on right away. Let's get right to it. AMERICA – I Guess I'm Floating Here We Go [...]

The 15th day of the month means Music Alliance Pact time, when the blogging community comes together to offer up their favourite song for the world's ears. Think of it as the international invasion it's OK to support. Last month we welcomed Babylon Noise to the party - a development so significant it was reported by MTV Romania no less, and with a fair degree of enthusiasm by the young brunette presenter, who is clearly a [...]

This is our very first input on MAP, the Music Alliance Pact, a blogosphere project by The Pop Cop which invites 22 different publishers from different countries to showcase a monthly recommendation to share to the world. I found the idea to be splendid and the collective contribution by our now fellow bloggers is exciting to say the least. Club Fonograma is representing Mexico, which I know it's odd considering I don't live in Mexico (but I was born there) and the blog is in English, but let's face it, the big majority of the content comes from [...]

Music Alliance Pact are din luna februarie inca un blog, reprezentand Mexicul. Multa muzica buna vine din acea zona, dar presupun ca vor promova rock en espanol mai mult decat, sa zicem, Lucha Reyes . Cu alte cuvinte MAP a ajuns la 22 de tari si creste. Asa cum v-am obisnuit, fiecare blog din fiecare tara a propus cate o melodie deci avem 22 de artisti din tari diferite,piese destul de noi.Din Romania, in aceasta luna ii avem pe The Amsterdams care se pregatesc de un album nou, dupa EP-ul de anul trecut. Ma pot astepta [...]

Es 15 de Febrero y toca otra entrega de MAP (Music Alliance Pact), tengo que el capitulo del mes pasado ha sido uno de los que más me ha gustado, he conocido muchas buenas bandas que ya comentare despues, para Febrero la misión de elegir a nuestro candidato no ha sido difícil, de hecho me parece que "Covida" se ha convertido en la mejor canción rock pop que haya salido de estos lugares, gracias a Catervas por la canción y definitivamente tienes que escucharla, todo un clasico para nunca sacarla de tu reproductor mp3. Para descargar las 22 [...]

The Swedes are really hitting it this year. I just found Love Lindblom , this blond indiekid from Stockholm making catchy poptunes a la Håkan Hellström. Apparantley Love's Debut EP will be out this summer and isn't it just perfect for it? Bet those little teenage indiegirls will be screaming their lungs out. Video for Till Min Syster (Melodier) : MP3: Love Lindblom - Till Min Syster (Melodier) [...]

The Swedish tunes are flooding in and I see no reason to wait `til tomorrow to share with you this perfect pop song from Love Lindblom . I'm told this is the first single from an upcoming ep from Love Lindblom. The debut album will follow this summer. I'm a real sucker for catchy music like this that builds and builds into a frenetic climax. I love when the horns kick in. I love the diy nature of the video, you just know he asked all his friends to help out. In short [...]
