Found this update on Scottish duo Strawberry Whiplash over at the Matinée Recordings news page : " The band is currently working on songs for that all-important debut album which may or may not be called ' Hits In The Car ' when it finally sees release. " I obviously know that the naming of the album will have absolutely no connection to a blog run by yours truly, but I still cannot help thinking that it would be awesomely cool! + Picture Perfect [...]

re: Playlist #7 Inutile - opuscolo letterario è un mensile autoprodotto che si trova sia in pdf sia su carta: un elegante A3 che piegato diventa più piccolo di una polaroid: da una parte rivista, dall'altra poster. Come ogni mese , in mezzo ai loro racconti, recensioni e poesie, hanno pensato di mettere una rubrica di canzoni da scaricare per accompagnare la lettura, e hanno gentilmente invitato noi a scegliere la musica. Ecco la playlist del numero di gennaio che mi stava quasi per scappare [...]
Label compilations are either a good way of getting to know great bands that has something similar to another band on the label that you like, OR a few good songs and a lot of boring stuff you're absolutely not interested in. The label-compilations from Matinée Recordings are usually of the first category, and since I like most of the music this quality-label releases, I often love their label compilations... Matinée is a very style focused label. All their bands have "the Matinée sound", - highly melodic, warm, friendly indiepop. It's usually quite jangly, [...]
Driving with Matinée Recordings. Today, we listen to the new compiltation from California's Matinée's, which contains 11 brand new recordings by some of the label's finest like Northern Portrait, Strawberry Whiplash, The Lucksmiths, The Electric Pop Group, Cats on Fire and many others. Here's Australia's Simpático with the new track "Australian Idle". Feels good... Simpático: "Australian Idle" [ mp3 ] Order here
I just wrote yesterday that the first CDs of this year have already been ordered, and today, they landed in my mailbox. That really was a quick delivery! The two CDs came from fine label Matinée Recordings , and I really don't have much to add to Morten 's posts about Northern Portrait 's debut-album Criminal Art Lovers ( here ) and the Matinée Grand Prix [...]
The Northern Portrait debut wasn't the only album included in that parcel I received from Matinée Recordings on New Year's Eve, and though I make sure to get my daily dose of Criminal Art Lovers it's high time to listen to the rest of the contents. First "pit stop" is the compilation The Matinée Grand Prix , which contains 11 brand new recordings by some of the label's finest. [...]
zunächst der hinweis auf eine ganz spezielle compilation- reihe, die höchsten respekt verdient, es handelt sich um "berlin songs", mittlerweile in phase drei angelangt, enthält das kompendium 27 songs, die, so die macher j.n. junker und s. hoffmann, "einen Schnappschuss der Berliner (Anti)Folk/Singer-Songwriter- und Lofi/DIY-Community geben will. Es soll versucht werden, ein Bild von spannenden Künstlern zu zeichnen, die in Berlin Fuß gefasst haben oder im Rahmen von Veranstaltungsreihen wie Fourtrack on Stage, amSTARt oder auf dem diesjährigen von Junker und Hoffmann mitveranstalteten Festival Down by the River in der Bar25 aufgetreten sind.

Bubblegum Lemonade's Laz McCluskey collaborates with vocalist Sandra in the equally sugary-sounding noise-pop band Strawberry Whiplash. The two hail from Glasgow, Scotland, and have just released their second EP, Picture Perfect (Matinee). The follow-up to 2008's Who's In Your Dreams EP features four sunny tracks with sweet, girlish vocals and plenty of fuzz and reverb. [...]
Nos asomamos hoy al catálogo del sello Matinée Recordings , cuya última referencia tiene por protagonistas al grupo de Glasgow, Strawberry Whiplash, con su segundo Ep Picture Perfect , un disco que contiene un total de cuatro canciones de pop pegadizo, muy del estilo del que en su día hicieran bandas como The Primitives, Talulah Gosh o The Darling Buds, sonido luminoso que combina una instrumentación en ocasiones recargada y cercana al Shoegaze con una delicada voz femenina.

Matinée Recordings has released a new EP from Glasgow indie pop duo Strawberry Whiplash , "Picture Perfect" . This is their second release, after last year's wonderful "who's in your dreams". Strawberry Whiplash is Sandra and Laz , - the latter is also the man behind Bubblegum Lemonade , also on Matinée. When I listen to the wonderful title-track on this new EP, I get back the good feeling that I once had, driving around in my hometown on a sunny day, playing The Primitives loud in [...]
I spent a little time today working on a new layout for the blog and if you're interested in seeing how things are progressing, you can check it right here . All inputs are welcome; positive or negative (especially). Probably old news, but learned today that Magic Arm will be supporting Camera Obscura at Loppen (Copenhagen) on September 30 (and the rest of the band's European tour as well). Obviously I was hoping that Northern Portrait [...]
Lately I've been on this Primitives , Darling Buds , Rosehips kick. The last couple summer months if you'd have been over, you more than likely would have been subjected to the sweet sounds of fuzzy guitars that jangle a little and sweet vixen croons from the likes of Tracy Tracy, Andrea Lewis or Yoland. All of those bands were circa C-86, with the Primitives and Darling Buds going on a bit longer making records into the early 90's, but largely that sound has been in hibernation since then. Sure the Manhattan Suicides and [...]
Glasgow's Bubblegum Lemonade have been the source of my aural pleasure lately. Named for Mama Cass Elliot's (of Mamas & The Papas) 1969 solo album "Bubble Gum, Lemonade And...Something for Mama, Bubblegum Lemonade's 1960's inspired jangly melodic indie-pop brings to mind The Byrds, Jesus & Mary Chain, and The Ohio Express. Essentially the work of one man, Laz, and his 12 string Rickenbacker guitar, his debut album Doubleplusgood was released last month on Matinee Records . It's yummy yummy yummy. And when Laz [...]
