Kala-OK er den nyeste tilføjelse til musikkollektivet omkring pladeselskabet Tambourhinoceros. Den 11. april debuterer Kala-OK med albummet Reminiscence of a Bodily Blues . Kala-OK er et et-mandsprojekt af Kristian Mondrup, der siden han i 2009 flyttede alene til Kina for at lære kinesisk og fordybe sig i sin musik, har arbejdet på at finde frem til Kala-OKs musikalske udtryk. Selvom Kristian Mondrup er den primære drivkraft bag det musikalske koncept Kala-OK, har Kristian efter hjemkomsten fra Kina i 2010 langsomt forvandlet Kala-OK til et kollektivt musikprojekt. Singlen "Stars Are A Sailing" er sunget af [...]
I haven't had much time of late to write. The house project of repainting walls, painting trim, pulling up carpets, and laying down bamboo has absolutely dominated my time. That and working on my BMW, which in the past few weeks has received a full tune-up (with exception of replacing points and cleaning the carb). I'm hoping that come mid-week, I'll be back in my normal post routine. As time has been limited, I thought "Desert Island Picks" would be a good topic for the week. Unfortunately, I left off [...]
Rarement je me suis tapé une année aussi chargée en déceptions musicales, du coup, si on me demandait dans la rue si 2011 a été une bonne année je répondrais sans réfléchir non, pasque de toute façon, dès qu'on me parle dans la rue c'est soit pour me demander du blé, une cloppe ou tenter [...]
There's a burning detail that fans don't know about Treefight For Sunlight and it's important to them that you do. Hint: Size does matter.
Stuarto Glasser, host of the All Around the World Music Show, called me up a little after 5pm Friday and asked if I could fill in for him. Thinking it would be a great way to attract a few more listeners I agreed. I headed home and put together a playlist of some of my favorite indie artists from around the world. The first half of the list below aired as the split show: The Indie Music Show from All Around the World. I began with some lovable indie [...]
Treefight For Sunlight : What Became of You and I Καρπούζι το χειμώνα; Ε..ναι! Από τη Δανία. Ότι πρέπει όμως για να διαλύσει αυτό το μαύρο σκ...τόκαιρο και να φέρει λίγη λιακάδα στους φίλους των Beach Boys (ακόμα το παλεύω με τα 5 cd των SMiLE Sessions ) και άλλων λουλουδάτων ψυχεδελικών αθωοτήτων κυρίως του '60. Μιλάμε για good vibrations. Sunshine pop κανονικά. . Filed [...]
"I'm looking for something that'll...break through. You know?" James Woods' Max Renn yearns in David Cronenberg's 1983 cult classic Videodrome . Oh, how things have changed. In today's day and age, we've drowned in media. It's swallowed us. We're nothing but a bubble amidst one infinite, engulfing abyss. Intimidated? You should be. With each passing second, you're losing opportunities to take advantage of a culture that's moving ahead and at an exhausting rate. You could very well be alone...left behind...abandoned. Terrified yet? Yes? Well, that's more like it. -Michael Roffman President/Editor-in-Chief
It's sort of sad, in my mind, that there's this vast sea separating us from some incredible music, most of which seems to come from places other than England. A few months back, I first heard this exquisite piece of folk-pop from Treefight for Sunlight , but I had completely forgotten about it, that is until it resurfaced in my daily search for great music. This particular track comes from the bands self-titled album, not to mention the fact that you can take a jump HERE to see the [...]
Friday evening was a mad house. Getting into the station wasn't the issue, as I expect it will be in the coming weeks now that winter is upon us; it was the transition. Transitioning from one on-air personality to another is a bit nerve-wracking. The quarters are cramped, the mic is hot, and you have to do your best not to step on their toes as they wrap their show and you begin yours. And when it's time to fly, you have to remember which buttons should be lit and which ones shouldn't. After the [...]
This Danish band is reminiscent of The Mamas and The Papas back in the '60s when it was cool to sing through your whimsical smile and carefree spirits. Listen and smile.
1. The Fling - "Dogpile" (Trippy and reverb-soaked first single with layers of spacey country vocal harmonies taken from their new 7-song What I've Seen EP out now on Dangerbird Records, who also re-released their excellent debut album When The Madhouses Appear this past May.) http://thefling.us/ Download: http://dl.dangerbirdrecords.co m/the-fling/mp3/dogpile.mp3 2. Treefight For Sunlight - "Facing The Sun" (First single of twinkling and twee psych pop from the Denmark-based band's sun-drenched 70's pop-loving debut album [...]

Danish foursome Treefight For Sunlight play the kind of music that makes me want to dance around kicking piles of freshly raked leaves on one of those crisp Fall days, the ones where the chilly air and the sun on your face make it okay to shiver and squint at the same time. When I [...]
Filed under: Video , New Music , Exclusive , New Releases Simon Birk We're not sure if Denmark's Treefight for Sunlight have ever seen ' Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory ,' but their track 'What Became of You and I?' plays like an indie-rock cousin of the 'Oompa Loompa Song.' The Copenhagen natives meld the musical sensibilities of everybody's favorite tuneful confectioners with the same blissful harmonies as Panda Bear and [...]
Treefight for Sunlight is an apt name for the Danish four-piece. Well, the Sunlight part at least. Their sun-drenched, euphoric harmonies emit every existing positive emotion. When their eponymous debut album was released earlier this year, I assumed it would be thrown into the spotlight and serve as one of the year's most praised alternative [...]
so, für die nächsten tage die letzte exorbitante bündelung an musikdateien nebst infotainment. ich brauche dringend erholung und werde sie mir holen. komme, was wolle. Euch noch einen schönen restsommer und etwas genuss beim geniessen. charlotte gainsbourg bringt ihr album "stage whisper" am 07. november über because music heraus, es wird ein doppelalbum mit liveaufnahmen und unveröffentlichtem studiomaterial sein und folgt dem durchaus gewürdigtem "irm" album aus dem januar 2010: charlotte gainsbourg - terrible angels by [...]
It can't be a week ago already, can it? But I still have loads of recordings…! Treefight for Sunlight (This was an early contender for Best Set of the Weekend, until Suuns came on and stole the show. ) Treefight for Sunlight are a Danish band that I'd never have heard of if it wasn't for Green Man, and for that I'm extremely grateful. They have a beautiful, eponymous, light and airy album out at the moment which I can recommend to you. It's full of [...]
Spiral Staircase Nobody does dream pop like the Scandinavians. Denmark's Treefight for Sunlight continues the country's unchallenged reign of infectious melodies melding '60s sensibilities and sing-along lyrics the likes of the Zombies with a sense of urgency that brings to mind Arcade Fire. 'What Became of You and I' is a choral pop ode that merges an insanely catchy chorus with honky tonk-style piano and gleaming guitars. Combining California's sun-soaked charm with '60s euphoria and the occasional slight prog rock bent, the [...]
