Our top 25 band names of 2011 (so far...) really made us smirk just reading them. As we mentinoed in our 25-50 best band names, band-name creativity is something that will be the band's trademark. Sure, the band could break up, dive off in a different direction and create a whole new pseudonym. But a band name lives on forever and depending on the band's stardom, becomes a household name. Just as we all have done in the past (and still do), creating a band name is almost as much fun as making the music itself. These bands [...]

Here's a new one from a new one. Not a lot to go on in terms of backstory for The Cloud I'm Under , but this young gentleman is prolific if nothing else. The You'll Sleep When I'm Dead EP is merely the latest rollout from an artist when has been keeping up a pace of nearly an EP a month since the beginning of the year. The Cloud I'm Under describes You'll Sleep When I'm Dead as a "reflection on [...]
Happy year 5771! Well, for some people at least. And happy almost 2011 for some others! Not only do we have a bunch of new singles, covers, and songs that might become future favorites, but we have a new logo for the Friday Mixtape! We think it's pretty great, just like these tunes. As always, below you'll find a mix of this week's best new singles, remixes, and covers (brought to you by Cover Me ) along with mp3s from some up and comers you just might want to check out. In all, there's over 40 songs [...]
The Cloud I'm Under is one of those bands, well not a band really just one guy who apparently has no name that I could find, that on first listen I wasn't quite sure what to make of him. Lo-Fi Kids With Electro Dads starts off with a simple song The End that is extremely catchy. It is two minutes of fuzzy vocals and guitars that blisters along and seems much shorter than it is. I wasn't sure when I first turned it on whether to like it or not but after listening [...]
Don’t make the mistake of thinking that just because these EPs are free, they’re not worth having. First, it’s Someone Has Foiled Our Plans—the latest release from The Cloud I'm Under is free. The Cloud I’m Under is actually one dude, a New Yorker who makes synthpop that tastes a little like The Cure and Gary Numan. In fact, it’s a lot like Gary Numan. And I’ve always dug him. Check it out: Bonnie and Clyde Number 1 Girl [...]
mp3: The Cloud I’m Under - Get A Grip On Reality The Cloud I’m Under sent over his latest EP Someone Has Foiled Our Plans to me yesterday. It’s sloshy, minimal, slow moving and plain delightful. Here’s one track, “Get A Grip On Reality.” You can scoop the whole thing over here if you dig it.
New Yorkern The Cloud I'm Under skickade över sin nya EP Someone has foiled our plan precis. Den är full av underbar synthbaserad lo-fi-robot-pop och jag tänkte dela med mig av vad jag tycker är den starkaste låten. Men sedan insåg jag att jag av bra skäl inte kunde välja, så jag blundade och pekade och här har ni nu öppningsspåret Bonnie and Clyde The Cloud I'm Under - Bonnie and Clyde
At least for us east coast peeps, it looks as if summer has officially arrived. The temperature is crackin' 80, the humidity is already driving us nuts, and free shows are now a plenty. In other words, life is pretty good right now! But what's the one thing that could make it even better? How about another edition of our now legendary - yes, legendary! - Friday Mixtape. As always, included below is a mix of the week's best new singles, remixes, and covers along with mp3s from some up-and-comers you just might want to check [...]
What to say about this week's Friday Mixtape... Let's see... Well, with the inclusion of acts like Roky Erickson, Tobacco, Dum Dum Girls, and Frog Eyes, it's pretty indie-heavy. Given how much scrolling you're about to do, there's a lot to listen to. Oh, and once you do listen, you're probably hear a lot that you'll end up putting on repeat. Yeah, this week's Mixtape is pretty awesome. But don't just take our word for it, hear for yourself below... NEW Singles: "Wulfstan" by Beak> [...]
The Cloud I'm Under often sends me music. It's always good, but, for whatever reason, I never post any of it up. Maybe it's because I know I'll one day listen to his newest creation and it will be great. That, someday, his goth-influenced, 80's-ish, punk-ish, synth pop will be some of the best of said genres that I have heard. He will be topping charts when, now, he gives away his music for free . Werewolf is his newest, a three song ep that bangs. The Cloud I'm Under- Werewolf Man [...]
Today's selection from my mailbox / Een greep uit mijn mailbox : Dim the lights (mp3) - The Cloud I'm Under Dit klinkt als een mengeling van een speels muziekje en de soundtrack bij een oude horrorfilm, met die lage stem, het handgeklap, het gitaarintrootje en het orgeltje... The Cloud I'm Under [...]

Der New Yorker Producer mit dem Alias The Cloud I’m Under verschenkt die zweite EP in Folge. Der Name der EP “There's More To Life Than Indie Rock N Roll” ist inspiriert von den letzten Worten, die seine Freundin zu ihm gesagt hat. Durchaus ein ansehnliches Ende einer Beziehung. Musikalisch geht’s Richtung Metronomy, Hot Chip und Co. Mehr Infos und v.a. die Vorgänger-EP auf der offiziellen Seite . MP3: The Cloud I'm Under – Caught You In A Lie ( ysi ) EP: [...]

![The Cloud I’m Under: Future Games [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1928431_lg.jpg)
I recall getting lost as a child at night in a mid-80s fair, packed full of looming dark shapes and carnies with poor teeth. The video for "Future Games" brings back those memories - it's merely modern home video of an evening at the fair. The Cloud I'm Under just released a free EP titled Ears Ringing/Hearts Full/Pockets Empty , an album filled with cool electro-synth-pop including "Future Games" and "Out At Mars". These tracks are super catchy and jam-packed with awesome beats. See for yourself: The [...]
The Cloud I'm Under sounds like a solid mesh of digital and analogue. The New York native brought forth a couple of nice jam tracks that posses a certain "chill factor" and I hope you know what I mean when I say that. You can pick up the dudes full Ears Ringing/ Hearts Full/ Pockets Empty EP here or just snag my favorites below. Either one works. The Cloud I'm Under - Out At Mars The Cloud I'm Under - Patience Love [...]
