Por Carla Fumagalli Es un cuento de Cortázar . Uno que termina que el protagonista asesina. Asesina insidiosamente. Con tres cucharadas de veneno. Tres cucharadas de odio y asco metidas adentro de una máquina que las inyecta en las venas de un jardín del sur del conurbano bonaerense. Tres cucharadas de engaño que terminan ahogando un bello jazmín. El más blanco y perfumado de todo el conurbano bonaerense. El más puro y bello amor infantil, brutalmente asesinado con tres cucharadas de veneno azul. [...]
After almost three years after her much-lauded debut album, 2009’s Hands , Victoria Hesketh ’s second album abounds with the same propensities for hip-shaking disco jams that made Hesketh, a.k.a. Little Boots , a pop star. Her first album, Hands , garnered Hesketh that year’s BBC Sound of… poll, beating out big names such as Lady Gaga , Florence + The Machine and her rival for the longest-wait-for-second-album title, [...]
The world of pop is always a better place when there's new music from Alison Moyet about to enter it. It arrives today in the UK (6 May) in the form of the minutes , which is scheduled to wash up on U.S. shores on June 11. Here are my not-so-random thoughts on the album's 11 tracks. "Horizon Flame" Ambient and futuristic, which are two words one might not have previously associated with Alison Moyet. A post-space age love song (not to be confused with "Yesterday's Flame," Track 1 on 2002's Hometime ), [...]
Editors’ Selections is an opportunity for your favorite Dancing Astronaut contributors to talk about some of the music they’re listening to that we might not always get an opportunity to post about from week to week. Sometimes it’s out there, sometimes it’s obscure, but you’ll always get a peek into what we’re loving behind closed doors. Gabi: The Neighbourhood - Sweater Weather (James Lavelle Remix) There's nothing like a track that commands your attention from first bar [...]
Remember Orion ? He's the Swedish producer responsible for crafting last summer's stunning "In The End," which left us all crying at the discotheque. Over the past year, he's been steadily prepping his full-length debut. But in between crafting new cuts, he's been putting his signature emotional spin on some of the finer Swede-pop songs of the past decade, including Faye 's "Water Against The Rocks" and Agnes' "One Last Time." He's got a new mix to add to his dreamy collection this week, this time putting [...]

A londrina Pawws (pseudônimo de Lucy Taylor) tem virado o mundo da música pop de cabeça pra baixo. Mas o mais impressionante é que se você olhar o SoundCloud da cantora, encontrará uma demo, “Outside”, e uma única música finalizada, “Slow Love”, o suficiente para que diversas publicações manifestassem suas apostas e gerassem um tremendo buzz em torno da garota, que acabou parando inclusive no Radio 1, da BBC. Do pouco que sabemos sobre Lucy podemos destacar que ela ganhou bastante notoriedade ao trabalhar com o Kele Okereke, do Bloc Party , na música "What Did I [...]
KTH es la universidad técnica más grande de Suecia y como proyecto anual, los estudiantes en la carrera de mecatrónica construyen un robot. Hasta aquí todo suena como un proyecto escolar rutinario, pero estos jóvenes decidieron llevar esta experiencia un poco más allá y tomaron como inspiración a la cantante sueca Robyn . Las razones por la que los estudiantes decidieron dedicarle el proyecto a Robyn son -según ellos- obvias, ya que ha escrito canciones como “Robot Boy” o “The Girl and the Robot” , por su constante búsqueda de nuevas [...]
Did You Hear? :: Sadly, tour-mates Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are not an item, which means Rihanna and Chris Brown are likely still an item. Rocky cleared this rumor up in a recent interview, telling MTV, "I ain't hittin' it." Totally different meaning if Breezy were to say that. [ MTV ] :: Justin Bieber debuted a new tattoo of a koi carp fish at his concert in Copenhagen, Denmark. Bieber didn't discuss it, but koi carp fish are believed to bring good luck and [...]

Nashville-based Night Beds visits AV Undercover with Robyn's "Dancing On My Own."
Night Beds lush country-tinged album Country Sleep is one of our favorites thus far in this early year. In the latest episode of the A.V. Clubs Undercover, singer Winston Yellon does his take on Swedish pop singer Robyn and her song "Dancing On My Own". Yellon's reason for selecting the song was because "he has it blasting in his house all of the time." This is something that we can fully appreciate and encourage. Some of us at MOKB may or may not be known from time [...]
Night Beds is an atmospheric, confessional Nashville-based country-rock act, so naturally, ultra-clean Swedish synthpop of Robyn's " Dancing On My Own " comes to them naturally. The group recently took part in the A.V. Club's "A.V. Undercover" video series, in which bands cover unlikely songs, and this one certainly qualifies. This one has a few of the original's synthetic bubble-pops, but it's more focused on Robyn's sense of lost isolation. Watch the performance below. Read More...
Owlle é uma artista francesa que não pede apresentação, até mesmo pela escassez de informação encontrada na internet. Com um EP lançado no final do ano passado, Owlle produz um dreampop eletrônico que parece buscar influências em produções entre Grimes e Robyn , e apesar de ser francesa, a artista pode facilmente ser confundida com algumas cantoras do pop britânico atual. "Ticky Ticky" é o primeiro single da cantora e mostra que a artista tem potencial para estourar na mídia ainda esse ano. Com um começo sombrio, a música logo evolui para um pop [...]
By Sasha Hecht & Caitlin White Why would an artist ever choose to cover a song? I mean, seriously. Nine times out of ten, their efforts are met with something between "Not bad... but nothing compared to the original" and "This has ruined my favorite song for me forever. I hope you go septic and poison yourself from the inside out with your own feces." Often, cover songs are an attempt by a younger artist to assert their skill level as on par with a classic musician—and usually the two aren't actually equal. [...]

Mark Northfield transforms Robyn's "Dancing On My Own," into a waltz.
It's been a minute since we've heard from edgy Swedish singer/songwriter Beatrice Eli but she's back! Check out the recently released music video for "It's Over," title track from her debut EP, due March 24th (via Razzia/Family Tree Music/EMI). "It's Over" is a punchy, attitude-filled synth-pop stomper that further solidifies her place as one of my 'Ones to Watch.' Listen to the song on
