13 1/2 points. That's the official line that the Las Vegas oddsmakers are saying that the Patriots will beat the Broncos with an over/under 50. In other words, odds makers are claiming that it's going to be a high scoring contest with the Patriots handing it to the Broncos. It would be a bad idea to put a small wager if you can on the Broncos to win outright. The odds are heavily not in their favor and that's where they like their chances. Their walls are against the wall and after last week's OT winner [...]

If you like your electro pop dark and melancholic and sometimes glitchy - with beautiful light female vocals - look no further than Norway's Torgny. Not only does he make create ice cool electro-pop, but each of the three tracks on his latest release 'Trilogy' is accompanied by a music video (directed by Emil Trier) and a specially selected remix. 'Dying Hipster' shows off the air-light vocals of collaborator Marie Due whose ghostly voice features throughout this release, and the remix of 'Big Day' from London's Plant Plant is a track with tinkering piano and warped [...]

photo by Lin Zhipeng It's not a Monday, but Bank Holidays and Christmases being what they are, perhaps that's forgivable. Here's the last Monday Music - the one weekly blog where SOIWT drops the London-music-only rule - of 2011... Masterface - Excuse Me Girl You know that feeling when you're utterly exhausted, but so happy and without urgent needs that you don't care in the slightest? That's what this song sounds like. Giddy goodness, from Freedom [...]

Torgny Feat. Maria Due - Dying Hipster Buy US: Buy UK:

Music blogs, as much as anyone, are well known for trying to shelve artists into specific genres. Music journalists and critics as a whole have a genuine need for placing artists and bands into certain groups, so they can explain their subject to the reading audience through the medium of words and descriptions. It's a tawdry affair, which earns writers little credit, as they put pen to paper (or should that be fingers to keys) with an entire armoury of pigeon holes. NME and some other corners of the traditional music press push it a little further by trying to [...]

The death grunts and hellish cries of metal are indeed far cries from despondent daydream electronica, although that's the tune to which Oslo's Torgny K. Amdam (or simply Torgny for artistic purposes) now sings having previously fronted Amulet. Incidentally it's fellow Norwegian Maria Due that provides vocals on the eerie Dying Hipster, a track that sucks the listener ears-first down a dimly lit rabbit hole lined with pristine glacial synths and bass frequencies set to undulate menacingly, if somewhat playfully. Due's vocals are emotionless, unperturbed, and bafflingly so given that musically, Dying Hipster sounds like the [...]
Torgny feat. Mary Due : Dying Hipsters - Stream Difficile en entendant le magnifique morceau Dying Hipsters d’imaginer que Torgny faisait encore partie, il n’y a pa si longtemps, d’ Amulet , un groupe hardcore norvégien. Quoiqu’il en soit, on est ravis du virage, enchantés par cette sublime mélodie vaporeuse extraite du EP Oslo, 31. August attendu pour le 31 octobre. Hard to believe, [...]
