Nume de trupa cu M si cantece cu H, sa zic asa... ) H&M, ce mai... Sa fie suedez in toata regula. 1. Masquer – Happiness Sunt foarte entuziasmata de noua mea descoperire de pe taramuri suedeze, si anume Masquer . Trupa isi are originile in Stockholm si suna a ceva combinatie de The Cure , Siouxsie Sioux si Madonna . Happiness este primul lor single, cu un clip chiar misto. Am mai vazut ca mai au vreo [...]
As summer begins to melt away like a brilliant setting sun, the weather will soon turn more brisk, the leaves on the trees will die a flashy, colorful death and the air will become more crisp. The first week of September is a seminal time of the year - millions of kids are back in [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe
Last week IRC presented the first springtime mix for 2011 (see 2010 and 2009) as part of the weekly Sunday 25 Mix. As we indicated then, there will be at least one, perhaps, two more springtime mixes, including today's mix, before it's time to unleash a new set of summer-themed playlist mixes. We doubt though [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe
Spring is in full force, people are out and enjoying the warmer, longer days, making plans for the summer, soaking up the sunshine and forgetting about one of the snowiest and coldest winters in years. What better way to celebrate the days of spring than with a mix of spring-themed, and upbeat, songs from a variety [...] Related posts:Songs of Spring Playlist, Vol II: Club 8, Akron/Family, The Flaming Lips, Afternoon Naps and More Songs of Spring Playlist, Vol I: Annuals, Spinning Wheels,...

3 songs you need to hear right now. Played live last night in Cambridge. Is this song a new solo Thom song, or will it be on RHs next album? Either way we love it... Thom Yorke - "Give Up The Ghost" MP3 The MBs do their own take of the lovefool Cardigans hit. The Morning Benders - "lovefool" MP3 [...]
Today is the birthday of this blog. 4 years old! Since I launched it, many blogs have called it quit and actually I have stopped to read blogs as much as I used to back in 2006. Me? I am not tired of dealing with the Swedish scene in Frenglish at all, so I do not plan to stop Absolut Noise. And yes, I will keep on with the cheesy "blogspot.com" thing and this old-fashion layout. Also, since it is a birthday, let's celebrate here with 16 songs for you (see below, after the French translation): some B-sides, live stuff, [...]
Download an mp3 of Melpo Mene covering "Date" by Gorillaz : http://www.melpomene.se/Melpo. Mene.Gorillaz.Dare.Cover.mp3
Vocês já conheciam esse sueco? Ah, esses suecos! Porém, nesse caso, nem é tanto sueco. Como assim? Ah, eu falo isso porque o som dele não tem nada de tão diferente assim, como El Perro Del Mar ou o The Knife têm. Talvez nem estes tenham e eu só queira dizer que Melpo Mene nem precisava ser sueco, pois o som do cara é reconhecível, mas não genérico. Me entenda. Eu só quero dizer que numa playlist especial de inverno, que eu dou play em dias frios, tem esse cara, [...]
I think this one is easier on the ears. 1. Sea Legs | The Shins [ mediafire ] [ buy ] The beginning to this song, before any melody or lyrics, sort of reminds me of something Switchfoot would do, and I loved Switchfoot when I was maybe fourteen. I have since moved on, but you could say that I am comforted by familiar things. Everyone is. In addition to reminding me of Switchfoot, the Shins will always remind me of some scene from Garden State , even if only two of their [...]
![[MP3] Melpo Mene: "Holes"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1533638_lg.jpg)
Since last week I've been battling the wraith of Steve Jobs and the hex he has put on my iMac; yes, I'm convinced he's out to get me! After attempting to back-up 11,000+ songs and talking to three different "product specialists", I am now one disappointing Genius Bar appointment away from being told my logic board is, indeed, more fried than a Colonel Sanders drumstick. Come Thursday, I'll either have a fixed computer or the daunting task of spending a grand to fix it (a.k.a. new computer time). While I've been rotting away in a musicless purgatory wishing [...]
One of the oldest traditions around these here parts is the All Things Go Valentine's Day Mixtape, or the mixtapes in general, which haven't been featured here since last year's third installment of the Cannabliss Mixtape. I thought I'd return with, in my opinion, the most carefully crafted and entertaining mixtape to date. Ladies and gents, your 2009 edition, the All Things Go Valentine's Day Mixtape Volume IV. Norman Blake kicks off the love-fest with his unbearably sweet version of one of the all-time classics, "You Are My Sunshine", featured originally on the O' Brother Where Art [...]
Here is a story for you. I thought I had four As and one B this semester at college. When I checked my grades online, I found that I had four As and one C. The C was in my one-credit Intro to University class, where we did jack shit and my teacher was a certified phony. I'd nabbed As in Psyc, English, Math, and Gov. This was not an easy feat. And that one-credit piece of shit class dragged down my GPA. Needless to say, I was at least a little frustrated, and supposing my cousin, Liz, chances upon [...]
Are we at the end of this year already? It's seems like just the other day I was working on my list of the best albums of 2007 -- any yet, here we are. As the year draws to a close, I'm happy to present you with one final article, the best albums of 2008. Although I don't think this year was as strong as it has been in the past for indie music, there were still a few stellar albums that saw release. What were your favorites? What are you upset that [...]
Another Friday night, another voyage to the Gowanus' veritable heart of darkness, the Bell House. This time around, a birthday blowout for the venue's proprietor (happy birthday Skippy), consecutive Swedish singer-songwriters bringing their bedrooms to the stage ( Loney, Dear and Melpo Mene ) and a devastatingly grooving set from perma-EF faves and hometown heroes Takka Takka . Alina Simone opened the evening, but alas EF didn't make it there in time (or was out front stuffing our faces with papusas from the Red Hook vendors?). Thus, our [...]

This is a mix I made for Jay called "Finally" to introduce him to some new kickass mewzik while he drove back to his school from mine. Apparently, it's immensely depressing. Also, I apologize, for there are a lot of repeats here-things I've previously loved or posted on my blog. I think you'll find a few new treasures, though. And if you've never read my blog before, all the better. By the way, I've got a new mix headed your way super-soon, so keep lookin'. [...]

mit melpo mene hätte man sich auch schon mal beschäftigen dürfen. nicht nur, weil der bursche schon einiges auf den weg gebracht hat, nein, weil sich auch einige bekannte bereits auf dessen musik stürzten. wenigstens in obacht- stellung hätte ich mich bringen können. die würde so aussehen, dass ich, wenn ich 'melpo mene' und 'klienicum' in die suchmaschine eingebe, irgendein resultat erzielte, das auf den blog und seine machenschaften verwiese. gedacht, getan, schließlich kann man nach fast zwei jahren bloggerei nicht wissen, was man alles zu papier gebracht hat. das ergebnis ist gleich null.
