Terribly good-looking to the point of making us uncomfortable and yet sounding equally as engrossing and beautiful, Danish duo Oh Land just premiered their new video for the bubbly, downtempo smasher "Wolf & I". The song, off of Nanna and Hans's tomorrow-released self-titled EP, is sure to be a marquis single for the band this [...]

In August we posted Gypsy & The Cat , as " Band To Watch ". They are an electronic duo from Melbourne, Australia who are pumping out house beats and booty-quaking basslines, penning gorgeous mini epics of forlorn beauty and elegiac romanticism that, you can just tell, are about heartache and solitude, past girlfriends and future loss. Xavier Bacash and Lionel Towers used to pump out house beats and booty-quaking basslines, when they were both working as DJs in Melbourne and had a mutual love of French disco. [...]
Meet Oh Land , the most intriguing alt/folk/indie/electro/however -the-fuck-you'd-like-to-label- this artist you're going to hear about this year. Oh Land, born Nanna Øland Fabricius, grew up "with an opera singer for a mother, a theater organist for a father and Björk 's Homogenic on constant rotation" according to her MySpace . Points abound already, no? Following the homeland success of her 2008 debut album, Fauna , the gorgeous (see above; admire cheek bones) ballerina-turned-musician made a move to Brooklyn in 2010 to take her ambitions to the next level. Combining [...]
Sure there's a ton of new albums ready to burst forth and everyone's clamoring to get hot new tracks, exclusives and the like, but here in Beastonia, I want everything and anything to do with what's going on in camp Oh Land. That said, her album art is getting it's proper outing tomorrow, but thanks to our buddies behind the curtains, we get to toss you it a day early. People rule. Oh Land rocks. And this album art is all sorts of gorgeous amazing. [...]
For those who don't know (and apparently many do not), the CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival is a week long event in which under-the-radar artists perform and indie filmmakers premiere their work at showcases across New York City. This year's CMJ Festival begins next week on Tuesday, October 19 and will run through Saturday, October 23. According to the official website , there will be "1200 live performances from over 30 countries in more than 75 of New York City’s greatest venues and theatres," which is, like, a whole lot. At the risk of [...]
Click image to download full album Sounds like: Breakbot, Siriusmo, Kavinsky "Oh Land - Son of a Gun (Yuksek Remix)" What's so good? I was having some trouble coming up with something to write about for this week's post until I popped in an old CD on my way home from work. I typically listen to more "dancey" stuff in the car so that I don't pass out at the wheel (I tend to get pretty relaxed when [...]
Oh Land took to a Manhattan rooftop to play "Sun of a Gun", "Perfection" and "White Nights" for a Baeble Guest Apartment session in a picnic-style setup with a xylophone, omnichords and a loop machine. Watch the stripped-down version of Sun of A Gun (above)! [...]
It's time to listen to the tracks I have not posted recently. Here is the next NOT POSTED mix. These are just some of the songs that would get there own individual posts on here on GIMME TINNITUS, if I only had the time. This mix starts out more rock and then ends up all electronic. Listen. Downloadables: Form (mp3) by Hooray For Earth ( source ) Van Tan (mp3) by DD/MM/YYYY [...]
If you didn't know, the CMJ Music Marathon takes over New York City in just a couple of weeks. It's kind of a big deal. A few big bands plan on showing their faces - namely, Phoenix, Ghostface Killah, and Devotchka - while a number of the hottest names in the music scene today follow 'em (e.g. Surfer Blood, The Drums, Wild Nothing, Neon Indian, etc.). Yes, for one week, starting October 19th and ending on the 23rd, the Big Apple becomes a clusterfuck of music. But while grumpy New York natives might complain as they're wedged next [...]
By Epic Records Oh Land is 24-year old Copenhagen native Nanna Øland Fabricius. She made waves over in Europe before she ever won over hearts here in America. With a background in ballet and classical music, Oh Land brings a lot to the table, infusing her brand of pop with lively orchestration, an air of classical, and an infectious sense of adventure. She works not according to the rigidity of song structure but instead to the inspiring sounds that characterize and inspire her songs. Under the veil of pop charms, Oh Land [...]
Of course it was the single version they played this morning and not the (otherwise pretty cool) one she performs on the video. But since no official video seems to be available, this one will have to do. Taken from her soon-to-be-released US debut EP . + Sun of a Gun + Sun of a Gun (Yusek Remix) + Sun of a Gun (Savage Skulls Remix) Every morning [...]

Friday, October 1, 2010 Today's Quick Mention: There's a couple of rather nice full album streams that have popped up online. The new Marnie Stern can be heard here, and Corin Tucker's LP is here. Have fun. The weekend has arrived, and that's almost as awesome as the following five songs. Enjoy. : Club 8 - Closer Now : It's probably taken me longer than it should have, but I've realized that there isn't another band on the planet [...]
Before Sunday night, my only exposure to Mates of State came from their contributions to numerous episodes of “This American Life.” Hearing them in bite-sized pieces, I assumed they were simply an innocuous, tepid folk duo. Boy, was I wrong. Opening with the incomparably peppy “The ReArranger,” husband and wife duo Jason Hammel and Kori Gardner had the sparse crowd nodding heads and grinning--a picture that lasted throughout their ceaselessly upbeat and spirited set. While promoting their Summer 2010 release Crushes (The Covers Mixtape) , the show also served to workshop a handful [...]
Oh, Oh Land, marry me? Not quite sure how to define this electropopper ballerina, but I'll try. Oh Land is Björk-dance-music. Now Brooklyn-side via Denmark, Oh Land is following up her first album, Fauna, with a symphany of that bubbly wonky pop that is so 'in' right now. Check out her videos/songs after the jump. [...]
