And so concludes The Great Escape Festival , which always turns into the biggest weekend of our calendar year. It's been four days since the event finished, yet our hangovers have barely receded. On one of the nights we finally reached our bed at 8am! A marathon indeed. Below is our review of a handful of experiences and exploits, but in truth it's pretty impossible to extol the real experience in words. Sure we had an amazing time, with lots of live music and venue hopping, but as a Brighton resident every other week of the year, we noticed [...]
As you can see on our About section, we pride ourselves on throwing at least one mean party every year at The Great Escape Festival . As we build up to what will be our third consecutive year in a row we're now well known for this annual shindig. As 300 bands and the entire UK music industry descend on Brighton's seaside for a weekend of new music, we do our best to provide a genuine highlight among the many highlights. This year should prove to be one of the most exciting shows we've ever [...]
If ever there was a music festival designed for a music blog like ours it would be this one...OK, so perhaps SXSW too, but this one is literally outside our house. Absolutely zero connecting flights to Austin required then, as we only need to step outside of our door and we're surrounded by 300 artists and what seems like the entire British music industry, as we all set out to enjoy the annual Great Escape Festival . As you would expect, this means we are going to be very busy little bloggers over the weekend of the [...]
Check this pretty cool remix by Troels Abrahamsen of the Rangleklods tracks Clouds ... Rangleklods - Clouds (Troels Abrahamsen Remix) by Troels Abrahamsen
Three year old festival Musik i Lejet (taking place on 20 - 22 July, 2012 in Tisvilde located on the northern coast of Zealand ) has announced the first three names for this year's festival and to be honest I'm really quite overwhelmed! Michael Møller , Rangleklods and Chorus Grant is a pretty decent start and now one can only hope that the rest [...]
Tony Marks hosts his New Music Show on Juice Radio , the largest independent station in our home city of Brighton, where he delivers contemporary releases on four shows each week. We first appeared on his show at the start of 2011. He invited us in to show off music that The Recommender had discovered each month from within the blog world. We appeared every month through last year and here we are once again kicking off 2012. Every show's been an absolute blast, allowing us to deliver The Recommender in a completely different way to a new [...]
Some music suits a certain mood. It just does. When you correctly match your mood to the music it can envelope you like a cloud of silk. However, some music is so atmospheric and so effective, painting a perfect tone, that it drags your mood into it's picture whether you want it to or not. It's design is so attractive that it's impossible to resist. Today we are recommending a new artist who manages that trick like a master. Although her movements are subtle and patient, she will have you hypnotized under her spell before you know it. This is [...]

When you're discovering new music is there one over-riding element that makes you fall in love with it? Is it the melody? Is it the style? Is it the beat? Is it the vocals? Does it have to make you cry? Does it have to make you want to dance? What do you look for? For us it's often a whole host of different elements to the music that allows us to connect to it - in truth we imagine it's perhaps the same for you - but time and time again there's one particular feature that gets our internal [...]
Esben Andersen, en Berlin baseret dansker med kunstnernavnet Rangleklods , er dukket op på min radar. Bevæbnet med indspillede instrumenter, digitalt programmerede lydstrukturer og sin alsidige stemme skaber Rangleklods elektronisk, alternativ pop. Det er catchy samtidig med, det er eksperimenterende. Det bliver spændende at se hvad Rangleklods disker op med i fremtiden, det lover i hvert fald godt!

We got wind of this band a couple of weeks ago thanks to one of our faithful readers [Thanks Matt]. Since then we've been hitting Rangleklods soundcloud page [ here ] and jamming out. Honestly we don't know anything about Rangleklod. We know Rangleklod are from Denmark, but besides that, we couldn't tell you if this was a one man act or the work of a group [we're thinking group]. We can tell you that this is something you should be listening to and labels should be taking note. Rangleklod - Young and [...]
![[Introducing] – Rangleklods](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3357800_lg.jpg)
I've always been fascinated by those people who are happy to experiment with their music. Willing to put this sound with that, twiddle this knob, distort that voice, just to see what would happen, and the effect that that music would have on the listener. Sometimes it's a deeply uncomfortable experience, other times, one of the most rewarding happenings you could ever have (in my opinion). Radiohead have been a great exponent of that kind of experimentation. They make music they want to make and if you're happy to listen along then fine, if not, [...]
