True Romance By Taylor K. Long This Valentine's Day, enjoy this collection of a handful of my favorite "love songs" and songs about love. Whether you are part of a duo or flying solo-remember this piece of advice: I kept asking Clarence why our world seemed to be collapsing and things seemed to be getting so shitty. And he'd say,"That's the way it goes, but don't forget, it goes the other way too." That's the way romance is... Usually, that's the way it goes, but every once in awhile, it goes the other way too. You can download the entire mix, here, or [...]
Are you sitting in your bedroom and wondering about whatever happened to bands like The Cranberries or The Cardigans? If so wonder no longer because the Belljars will provide you that jolt of indie pop you've been waiting for. Although this ep's production is a little lofi the band seems talented with a full band sound with drums, bass and guitar, a lovely duet on "You Will Know", violin on both songs, and lead vocals in English and Swedish by a mystery woman. Very few bands nowadays don't have a paper trail. Rarely do [...]
Audio Dynasty ups the bpms and changes the sound a bit on one of my all time favorite tracks, and the result is a pretty solid remix. Audio Dynasty is a production duo based out of Vancouver and NYC, two very great cities if you ask me. Check out their soundcloud for some more free tracks if you like what you hear. Thanks again to Dan McD, whose been sending me a ton of really good songs lately. According to him this is how some of us write for BGB, don't think I'm guilty but sounds a lot [...]
While we sort of creep further into hibernation during the Holiday season, it's nice to receive a solid track from local band Black Books . The track, called "Out the Door" is available for free below and will be a part of the group's upcoming debut full length album due out on Valentine's Day 2012. It's a great tune full of those reverb laden vocals and slow burn we've grown to love about the band. Black Books also recently recorded a cover of classic tune "Love Fool" by The Cardigans which is available to stream over [...]

In just a few short days, I ship off to Sweden to (hopefully) see the northern lights . To celebrate, I gathered together some of my favorite Swedish music. Recently I read that Sweden was the third largest exporter of music, behind the US and UK. No idea if that's actually true, but any country that puts The Knife on their official tourism website gets a thumbs up from me… The Cardigans - "Lovefool" Lykke Li - "Little Bit" [...]
Black Books take the Cardigan's 1996 smash hit, 'Lovefool' and make it sound cool again.

White Moutaineering continues to impress us with their FW11 Collection. They have done an exceptional job with their custom created jacquard pattern on a variety of pieces including sweaters and outwear. The Jacquard Knit Stratum Pattern Cardigan is a new favourite from the season utilizing White Mountaineering's premium materials. The cardigan is Made in Japan from a cashmere and wool blend. Available at Haven .

Best Youth - Honey Trap Best Youth - Wait For Me I've only spotted two other posts about Best Youth , and both prominently featured "Hang Out" , my least favorite track from the Portuguese duo's Winterlies EP. Granted, Best Youth are still one of my favorite acts to emerge in 2011, and "Hang Out" is a legitimately good song. However, it doesn't even come close to defining the band's sound. Basically, they are The Cardigans . Though [...]

Cette semaine, après plusieurs artistes un peu sombres, la musique que je vous propose est plus douce et plus épurée. L'artiste de ce soir nous vient de Berne et s'appelle Nadja Stoller. Nadja Stoller, ce n'est pas exactement une débutante. Avec différents projets, cela fait déjà de longues années qu'on peut l'entendre sur la scène musicale suisse. Elle nous a proposé du jazz avec le Nadja Stoller Trio ou un son plus pop ou chanson avec le groupe Lumi , qui partait déjà parfois dans des sonorités [...]

En una noche de hace unos días venía manejando con el único deseo de terminar un largo día, una lluvia ligera de esas que te pueden importar poco acompañaba el momento, así que decidí que siempre es buena fórmula dejarse sorprender por la programación shuffle de la radio, confiando todos esfuerzos a una de esas estaciones que tocan éxitos de unas décadas atrás, de repente al terminar una canción de The Clash comienza aquel inicio tan emblemático de una de las mejores canciones pop de los 90s, "Carnival" de The Cardigans acompañaba la noche.

I can't resist the adorable charm of Paul Rudd, so it's impossible not to be a little excited about the release of Our Idiot Brother , featuring Rudd as a naive, free spirit who looks for the answers to life with his dog (named Willie Nelson) and generally drives his family nuts. With Zooey Deschanel starring as one of his sisters, it's almost too much adorable charm to handle in one movie. Sadly, you won't hear any tracks from She & Him on the soundtrack, but you'll get a nice sample of old [...]
