Na, das hat ja wirklich lange gedauert, bis die dänische Band Blue Foundation mal wieder ein Lebenszeichen von sich gibt – aus Anlass eines Samplerbeitrages, dessen Erlöse ans japanische Rote Kreuz gehen, hat die Band den neuen Song «Broken Life» mit Cecilie Trier (Choir of Young Believers) eingespielt. Kein Shoegaze, aber atmosphärischer TripHop – sehr gelungen! Link zur Bandseite bei Facebook Link zur Infoseite beim Label DPC Auch das Schweizer Projekt [...]

Here's March's edition of the Music Alliance Pact. For those of you who don't know about MAP, it's a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It's sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. This month we've welcomed French blog SoundNation and Denmark's All Scandinavian to bring the total participation to 24 nations. Our contribution this month includes a beautiful, budding track from Florida-based Viernes . Nathaniel's decree [...]

I've gotten a lot of great submissions that I was planning to review and post by now, but with my moving back to Brooklyn from Florida next week... I just don't have the time. I've been spending time packing and reorganizing my belongings, along with working and spending as much time as possible with friends and family. But I wanted to get something up here to hold y'all over until everything is settled, so here's a couple of playlists in the meantime: This first playlist I'm posting was partially influenced [...]

La început a fost o copertă. Cea a albumului lansat anul acesta. Mi-o plăcut din primul moment în care am văzut-o. Surpriza mai mare o fost ce se ascundea după copertă. Trupa vine din Lima, Peru şi este dovada vie a faptului că shoegazeul nu e mort. Combinat frumos cu dream pop, noise pop şi indie, [...]

Shoegaze will always remain one of my favorite genres of music, even if I get away from it from time to time, it's something that I always come back to. Granted, shoegaze and dreampop saw their heyday in the early nineties, but today many acts continue to reinvent and push the envelope with the genre. I was reading an interview with Soundpool (one of the bands featured in this post) about the relation among shoegaze, electronica, and indie-pop becoming more familiar in Japan. One of the group's members stated that there has been "a significant change in [...]

Tja, das ist schon was. Da gibt es doch in Peru eine Shoegazeband, die es der Welt vormacht, wie Shoegaze zu klingen hat. Resplandor heißt das Quartett, das bereits seit einigen Jahren den Gitarrenwänden verfallen ist und schon ein Album mit spanischsprachigen Songs auf Alison Records veröffentlicht hat. Ein wenig hatte ich die Band seitdem aus den Augen verloren, aber nun wies mich Rodolfo darauf hin, dass es einen neuen Song von ihrem zukünftigten Album «Pleamar» auf ihrem Myspace-Profil gibt, und diesen sogar als kostenlosen Download.

Resplandor are from Lima, Peru and they produce a wonderful classic shoegaze sound. The band was formed in 1996 with a sound highly influenced by the shoegaze and noise pop genres of music. They released their first recording in 1998 (Sol de Hiel EP) . Currently the band is recording their third album and they have re-released their 2000 debut album Elipse .
