![[Listen/Download] Pop Winds- Sunlight](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4367995_lg.jpg)
by teepoo It's sad, but Pop Winds has just released their last LP Earth To Friend . That being said the members are also solo works Majical Cloudz and Flow Child , so there's still music to come. I've always thought of them as tastefully weird and this new work is no exception. They play with sound samples and surround your ears with a landscape of noises. Unlike the past few, there isn't really as much of a pop touch. There is [...]
Pop Winds - Sunlight Wow, it’s a shame these guys just broke up recently. Their cassette release Earth to Friend LP on Arbutus is bangin’. Looking forward to seeing what their solo projects unearth. grimestyle : R I P pop winds — the guys that taught me how to use samplers and stuff
Montreal's Pop Winds have released their final LP, Earth To Friend, on Arbutus Records. Its sad to know that their impressive electronic psych pop rock will not be continuing into the... [go to the website to read the rest of the article, download mp3s and more]

Creo que la pieza que mas ha sobresalido dentro de todo el catalogo de Arbutus hasta el momento ha sido Grimes y por mucho. Digo, esto solamente desde el punto de vista 'mediatico' ya que algunos otros actos como Tops poco a poco se han ido haciendo de su fanbase debido al lanzamiento de su album debut asi como de sus presentaciones en vivo y otros que van para alla, sin duda es este trio de nombre Pop Winds el cual asi como los otros proyectos mencionados, provienen de Montreal y aunque dentro de [...]

So far there have been features on the music scenes of Newcastle and Christchurch and tonight's post takes a trip across the Atlantic for a peak at the Montreal scene with 6 bands you really need to hear as suggested by baebelmusic . Valleys Beautiful is a word that is far too easily thrown [...]

People who can do no wrong right now: -Pop Winds -Leacock's -TVMcGill -Hall and Oates (see: previous post) In all seriousness, this is another excellent Sessions output from the first three of the above-listed non-wrong-doers. The setting is surprisingly appropriate and the filming, editing, and sound is great as always. Seeing Pop Winds is always [...]
THIS IS HUGE. This show is basically the-dream. As Steve mentioned in his review of their debut LP, Native Speaker, for which this show celebrates, Braids are our most tagged artist and truly one of my favorite bands. Their debut album is nearly perfect and their live show is an incredible experience, as we've [...]
I've gotten a few email and seen a couple of comments from people asking why we didn't do a best of 2010 list well, Steph finally sent me an answer to that question in the form of a mixtape because we no speak best of 2010 list, we speak music. We're getting a lot of new visitors these days so if you're not familiar with LMDM I couldn't think of a better way to get acquainted with the queen of style. Steph was hitting home runs in 2010, brining us something completely fresh and new for 12 months straight. [...]
Here is another installment of the best of 2010: Canadian albums. This time its from #51-#60. This section I had trouble listing since I had extended from 50 to 75. What is surprising is that only one album in the list which I actually did a review on the album. Overall these albums were still great to listen to. Now you have to wait for the last week of December to find out the Top 50 Canadian albums of 2010. Let's the guessing and waiting begin. Check out the list. [...]
![[Listen/Download] Pop Winds- Owl Eyes](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2974110_lg.jpg)
by teepoo These dudes I discovered from CBC Radio 3 's site. Independent Canadian artists are able to upload their music on the radio site for all the world to stream and listen to. I love the system. Anyways, Pop Winds comes from Montreal, Quebec. Their colourful personalities reflect on the music that they create. You can hear this in Owl Eyes with a playful brass accompaniment over with arpeggios in the synth that sounds like it could be a tribute to your 16-bit SNES [...]
Photo Credit: Louise B. Not too long ago, I compiled a bunch of songs from Montreal-based bands that I loved for a buddy to get to know the excellence that is the city in which I know reside, and so I made From North Of America Vol. 1 . This new volume to the series was put together by Arnold and myself , with kind input from Steve and Ethan , featuring some of our favorite new music coming out of Canada, as of the middle [...]
Pop Winds: Will Be a Dream I know we’ve been slacking around here, and for that I’m terribly sorry. I should’ve never let school take priority over Tumblr. To make up for hours lost, here’s a band I’ve been wanting to feature for a while. They’re called Pop Winds , they’re from Montreal, and they’re signed to Arbutus Records (also home to Grimes and Blue Hawaii ). They dropped their debut LP ( The Turquoise ) back [...]
As you well know, the 2010 Halifax Pop Explosion is rapidly approaching, and if there's one question I'm not repeatedly asked at this time of year, it's "Shane, I'm desperate to get my indie dance rock on during this year's HPX, what show should I hit?". Were I actually to be asked this question, I'd have an answer this year: the Friday night show at the Coconut Grove featuring Montreal's Pop Winds and three Halifax bands locally renowned for their dance floor packing prowess: Tupper Ware Remix Party , Windom Earle , and Ruby [...]
This year's Pop Montreal is lookin' like one for the books. The ever-so-good Said the Gramophone wrote up an excellent guide for this year's Pop Montreal. Basing this post off that and the POP MONTREAL site, I'm gonna go through what would be a pretty ideal long weekend of music and then we'll see how close I come to accomplishing it. Pop Montreal starts Wednesday, September 29th and the fun doesn't stop until Sunday, October 3rd. * Underlined shows/events are ones I will foreseeably be going to. Sometimes, there are overlaps (Thursday's a [...]
Acht richtig gute Neuvorstellungen erwarten euch in den aktuellen Free Music Charts. Welchen fünf Songs gibt man da nur seine Stimme? Denn wieder einmal habt ihr sämtliche Songs, die an die sechs Monate Grenze gekommen sind in die Top 15 gewählt, wodurch sie gegen Neuvorstellungen ausgetauscht werden müssen. Aber auch die letzten Monat neu präsentierten Stücke haben die Charts ordentlich durcheinandergewirbelt. Vielen Dank an die genau 300 Wähler, die zusammen 512 Stimmen abgegeben haben. Wieder sehr beeindruckend sind die Downloadzahlen, die trotz einer eine Woche kürzeren Abstimmzeit fast so hoch sind wie letztes Mal: über 23.000 [...]
