The second installment of Tampa's version of a food truck rally took place today in Seminole Heights. With a lot more room and food than the last one (about thirty different trucks compared to ten) and much better weather I left feeling a lot more satisfied. Here's the shots I captured: Choices at the Cuppin Cake I went with the Apple Pie a La Mode Cupcake (moist and not [...]
The Swedes are taking over. Now members from both The Embassy and Studio have joined together to create a supergroup-of-sorts in The Crepes . The sound is not too far off from The Embassy; with a bit of acoutic-tropicalia. Its my guess they didn't take this project TOO seriously but enough to put out a quaint seven-song record titled What Else? You can purchase this in CD form (vinyl LP sold out) at the INFORMATION website . The Crepes - No The Crepes - Sugar
While we haven't done a formal post on Swedish Balearic pop disco duo Studio (yet), if you're a fan of El Perro Del Mar , then you are probably acquainted with their name. Rasmus Hägg is one half of Studio and lent production duties to El Perro Del Mar's newest release, Love is Not Pop . Hägg's Studio partner, Dan Lissvik, is no less busy, dipping his hands into his own side project with Fredrik Lindson of The Embassy titled The Crêpes . The Crêpes are an easily likable band that [...]
Den här låten har jag lyssnat på hur många gånger som helst under den senaste veckan. Jag förstår inte varför jag inte hört mer om den, varför inte skivan lanserats stort eller varför det hela tiden är Göteborg som lyckas få fram den riktigt bra popmusiken. Dan Lissvik från Studio känner vi framförallt igen från diverse remixer, hans version av Fever Rays When I Grow Up är kanske det bästa vi hört i år. Tillsammans med Fredrik Lindson från The Embassy bildar han The Crépes och därmed magisk pop. Lyssna och njut, som vanligt [...]
Taken By Trees Watch the WavesThe Crêpes What Else?Eminently tasteful music is always in great danger of becoming the soundtrack to your next car shopping experience, or given the staggering decline of the auto industry, your next brush with an iPod commercial on a transit shelter. Chairlift's Bruises or the career of Feist, for example. Give me a softly strummed guitar, a beat you can clap
I have been on a literal Sweden binge as of late. Maybe it is their ridiculously high standard of living (that inevitably stems from their ridiculously homogeneous population, but that is an argument for another day) that endows them with some preternatural ability to create perfect pop gems. It seems as if each track is a 101 course on the positive aspects of the democratization of music in the post-appropriation era, where it is perfectly acceptable to pick and choose from a veritable buffet of world genres (most notably afro-pop, balearic, reggae, hip-hop, etc.). I have literally had to create [...]

Here's a new song jangly balearic jam from The Crêpes , the awesome combination of D.Lissvik (Studio) and Fredrik Lindson (The Embassy) and the most recent band to join the Inf000 roster, also home to Studio, D.Lissvik, Parlour , and Fontän . Despite the company and the men behind The Crêpes , this probably won't sound like what you'd expect. Either way it's worth a few minutes of your time: [MP3] The Crêpes - What Else? And for something tangentially related: Gorilla vs [...]

The Crêpes - Cassette Pannkakorna är ett nytt projekt från Dan Lissvik och Fredrik från The Embassy. Låter faktiskt som en tvärkorsning mellan just Studio och The Embassy. Album släpps i en liten upplaga på vinyl imorgon, 17 juni, och i en större upplaga på cd och download i augusti.
