Ha! In your face eBay sniper software! That bid in the last 2 seconds just wasn't enough to beat my highest bid. I win. You lose. I am happy. But what did I win? Currently winging its way to me is this piece of vintage vinyl. Track 2 is Sylvie's breathtaking version of The Spencer Davis Group 's mod-scorcher Gimme Some Lovin' . Now gimme some Sylvie! [...]
Known to others as an Italian from Rome named Matteo, the artist by the alias of Oza began his career in EDM back in 2001 as a hardstyle DJ by the name of Plasmaraver. Falling in love with trance and progressive sound, he began his Oza project in 2009 with a fresh new sound. Now it's time to prepare yourself for the powerful Oza remix of Up & Down by Ruby & Tony. Released on the aptly-named Monster Tunes, this hit's piano stabs and vocal chops are sure to make any club bounce. Cleverly crafted from [...]

"A Bend In The Road" by Bend Sinister It's been a rough weekend and I'm super exhausted, but I just wanted to give a quick Monday morning shout out to this excellent looking documentary on touring Canada by Vancouver's Bend Sinister . Let's hope it comes out soon. In other Bend Sinister news, the band recently made the finals for the lucrative 100.5 FM Peak Performance competition in Vancouver, BC, which means they've got at least 50K (CDN) coming to them after their January 22, [...]
Regina, SK band Sylvie released their most recent full length titled Trees And Shade Are Our Only Fences on Smallman Records on October 21st of this year. The band is climbing their way up the College Radio community in Canada. The band has a very strong following, in part due to their apparently amazing live shows, and because they have a very unique punk sound intertwined with indie pop melodies. This sound is quite unique in today's Canadian music scene. Enjoy the track Please Make It Home from their new album as today's Track Of The [...]

Yes, I was stoked on this song right away. Yes, it reminded me of Jawbox. No, I wasn't surprised to see that J. Robbins produced the record. No, the Jawbox comparison doesn't do the band justice. Yes, there's much more to Sylvie than that. Yes, you can stream the whole record here . Yes, you should. Yes, I'm voting today. Yes, you should vote today. No, I'm not going to tell you who I'm voting for. Yes, I'm tired of hearing about politics, tired of talking about politics, tired of politicking about politics. Yes, I'm glad 3hive just talks [...]

Photo by Autumn De Wilde So obviously I'm on record as having thought that Rilo Kiley's last record (and according to some, their last record) Under The Black Light was a massive disappointment. It sounded like both principals were disinterested and just phoning it in, and made me think that maybe frontwoman Jenny Lewis' solo career - at that point consisting only of the rather lovely and understated country-soul gem Rabbit Fur Coat - was going to be [...]
Photo by Phoebe Mitchell-Innes It's sheer coincidence that Ireland's UAE's National Newspaper chose to run this piece last week about three of the bright lights of the London "anti-folk" scene - Laura Marling , Johnny Flynn and Noah & The Whale - all of whom are coming to town in the next few weeks and all of whom I'd been planning on writing pieces on in the next few days. But they did, and thus anything I might have to say is completely redundant so read [...]
From CBC, 4 former PMs join call for climate change action . Thing is, the former Prime Ministers are Joe Clark, Kim Campbell, John Turner and Paul Martin. Not exactly an all-star line-up. An only slightly more noteworthy bunch than the current cast of This Hour Has 22 Minutes . Meanwhile, we do have some cool news from some actual heavyhitters. Regina's Sylvie have got artwork, tracklisting and a release date (Oct 21)--along with the all-important pre-ordering info--for their new album Trees and Shade Are Our Only Fences [...]
Look familar? The cover art is a painting by none other than Bob Ross , who you've definitely seen painting "happy little trees" on TV, probably when you were home from school with a cold. He's a cultural icon for sure, but the band gives the following reason for choosing one of Ross' paintings for the new Annuals album: "The way that Bob made his paintings, and the way he paints in particular, is pretty similar to the way that our band makes a record. Bob Ross starts his paintings with [...]
Because even Olde Vancouver could use a little dose of New Regina on a Monday night, my favourite pack of Rider Priders is in town tonight for a little dose-do at the Media Club . Why you should care: Sylvie is a beautiful band made up a beautiful people who make beautiful music. Their 2005 album, An Electric Trace was called "stunningly awesome" by no less authority than the Regina Leader-Post . With every new album, this band has improved by leaps and bounds, and every time I see them, I like them more. I haven't [...]
