Say hello to Shout Out Louds . This may not be your first time coming across them, as the Swedish indie rock quintet has been around since 2001, but they've been making some changes. The band just released Optica , their fourth full-length album, on February 26. Unlike their previous albums, which were produced by indie rock personages Phil Ek (who has produced albums for Band Of Horses , Fleet Foxes and The Shins ) and Björn Yttling of Peter Bjorn and John (who has produced albums for [...]

Since we're in the middle of awards shows / Superbowl season, advertisers have had lots of opportunity to fill their ads with hip, indie bands, which of course brings us to another edition of Commercial Watch (as Sufjan puts it "selling out never looked so good" ). Watch / listen below: 2012 World of Red Bull MP3 Sufjan Stevens - Redford (For Yia Yia & Pappou) *** Hyundai Santa Fe: Epic Playdate [...]

Birisine şu soruyu sorduğunuzda yanmışız demektir: "Beni seviyor musun?". Bu soru umutsuzluktan köken almaya meyilli bir sorudur. Kendimizi bir anda karşımızdakinin yargısının esiri olarak buluveririz. Bu soruyu çeşitli olumsuzlamalar yaparak şu şekilde de sorabiliriz: "Beni neden sevmiyorsun?" ya da "Beni hiçbir zaman sevmeyecek misin?". Ne türde sorarsak soralım bu soru bir esaretin, bir tutulmanın işaretidir. Ve kızgın bir çocuk şu cevabı yapıştırıverir: "Bende seni sevmiyor(d)um zaten!" Aşktan kaçamayız herhalde ve bu sorunu mutlak halinde ortaya [...]
New indie label offers artists true artistic freedom.

El grupo sueco, Peter Bjorn & John , grabó I Wish I Was A Spy para el programa infantil Yo Gabba Gabba! que se transmite por Nick Jr. Aunque dura solo dos minutos tiene todos los elementos característicos de la banda que lo convierten en un tema muy amigable para los niños: la singular voz de serpentina de Peter Morén , riffs estilo James Bond [...]
As we are beginning to prepare our year-end lists, it's time to look back to 2011 and appreciate the albums that we missed here at Earbuddy. It occurs to me that critics have an often undiscussed power that isn't afforded to artists. Yes, we get to snipe at creative people without having [...]

The mad geniuses behind the kids' show Yo Gabba Gabba! have managed to wrangle more world class talent to perform ridiculous-yet-awesome songs for their latest compilation , due October 9th. Pulling from the show's "Super Music Friends Show" segment, Yo Gabba Gabba! Music Is... Awesome! vol. Four features original works from The Roots, Metric, Cut Copy, Belle & Sebastian, Biz Markie, Mariachi El Bronx, and loads of others. John Reis, frontman of the defunct band Rocket From the Crypt, appears regularly on the show to intro the Super Music Friends Show as The Swami. [...]

Thus far, Peter Bjorn and John drummer John Eriksson, aka Hortlax Cobra , has done a fine job translating his Night Shift material to film. Whether the bleary lights of "Repeat Performance" or the surreal ventriloquist act of "Viva Le Difference" , the clips have consistently felt uncomfortable, yet cohesive with the sounds. It's fitting then that the video for dancey album opener (and RSD comp feature) "Berlin" features, well, vaguely awkward dancing. A gentlemen in a jogging outfit sets out for what appears to be a late afternoon stroll, which turns [...]

Swedish indie rock trio Peter Bjorn & John have taken the dark & seemingly murderous Norah Jones track into a more upbeat anthem in their remix of “Miriam”. Listen below:

Norah Jones ' recent single "Miriam" burns slowly, revealing dark undercurrents over the course of a restrained four and a half minutes. Peter Bjorn and John don't really have time for dark undercurrents, especially when there are a few weeks of summer left. The sunny Swedes inject Norah's "Miriam" with a gleeful energy on this upbeat reworking. Give it a listen below.

Para nuestra fortuna, este 2012 ha estado plagado de noticias sobre Norah Jones y su nuevo álbum, " Little Broken Hearts", un LP que contó con la colaboración de Danger Mouse y aun podemos disfrutar en streaming. El motivo por el que os hablamos de Norah Jones hoy se debe al remix que Peter Bjorn & John le hizo a su “Miriam”, tema del que hace poco os habíamos compartido su videoclip , os dejo a continuación con este remix, disponible gracias [...]

The last we saw of Norah Jones's Danger Mouse-collabo "Miriam" was the official video , which featured her in her Sunday finest sitting in a paddle boat with a bloody oar, and eventually, a disturbing explanation for these facts. Poor Miriam! It was a fittingly unsettling video treatment for an interestingly unsettling NoJo production, though obviously nobody showed it to Peter, Björn, or John, who join heads to deliver a remix that makes the track a little more "driving down the highway with the top rolled down" than "dolled up in the middle of a pond dealing with the [...]
