El super dúo italiano de Crimea X ( Dj Rocca & Jukka Reverberi ) ya tiene preparado el lanzamiento del que será su segundo álbum de estudio para el sello italiano de Hell Yeah Recordings , y que mejor manera de ir preparando este gran acontecimiento que la publicación de este compilado llamado 'Vannij' en el que se incluyen 13 remezclas realizadas por este dúo, un repaso a sus remezclas desde el 2009 hasta finales del 2012 con ese toque especial del dúo entre kraut-disco-cosmic-space que le dan a [...]

Monday Music’s the one weekly post wherein Some Of It Was True! drops its London-only rule Low - Plastic Cup When I first listened to this tune properly, in a still room, I found myself shivering at it; at the sheer poignancy of Alan Sparhawk's voice, at the philosophical-and-slightly-cyn ical lyrics about mortality and legacy. Part of the song's majesty comes, I think, from its brevity - like Simon & Garfunkel's America, like a bee, like Pocahuntas dying young: [...]

nel poster qui sopra le prossime date dei prossimi concerti del tour autunnale degli Welcome Back Sailors - di cui è uscito intanto un nuovo brano nella compilation Warm #1 curata da Lumenous : Barcelona by Welcome Back Sailors
Video premiere from Italian artist Go Dugong and Welcome Back Sailors. For fans of Delorean, "White Sun" is a brand of chill, lo-fi, dream-pop that moves you with the beat but pushes you (just a little) emotionally. The images of space conjure up hopelessly nostalgic and optimistic feelings that I just can't get enough of. [...]

THE REMIX Even though they are still generally being referred to as an enigmatic Balearic-lounge singer-producer duo from Greece, Keep Shelly in Athens ’ run of singles, remixes and EPs these last couple of years saw them not only navigate through a diverse range of styles, but also become a highly blogged about band that cruised into North American scenes and is set to play this year in Coachella. For their latest remix, they’ve decided to take Italy’s Welcome Back Sailors' “Stronger” into darker territories as part of the Italian band’s Love (That’s All) [...]

La mattina del 13 dicembre le ragazze scandinave indossano vesti candide e una corona di candele accese. L'oscurità della notte di Santa Lucia , che secondo il Calendario Giuliano era la notte più lunga dell'anno, è ormai alle spalle e la luce può ritornare. Ci si scambia doni, si preparano dolci tradizionali, si canta in coro e prende il via il periodo delle festività. Come già gli anni scorsi , anche "polaroid alla radio" ha deciso di entrare nello spirito natalizio e di provare a farvi un piccolo regalo. Ho chiamato un po' di amici e di [...]
simpatica e promettente, inizia con Welcome Back Sailors questa nuova serie La Barberia - il duo si rade il viso, si taglia i capelli, parla un po’ della propria musica e del proprio progetto, ed infine suona dal vivo.
Here is a great visual reminder by vimeo user Giovanni "Gio" Aloi ! He did a fan video for Welcome Back Sailors ' dreamy chillwave song " Season ", taken from the Yes/Sun LP, released in July. I completely forgot about grabbin' this record back in the summer, so thanks to him for uploading his fan video. Head over to Bandcamp and buy Yes/Sun, if you haven't done it already. Footage is taken from Home Movie: On the Set of Philippe Garrel's 'Le lit de la vierge' , starring adorable [...]

Interessante esordio quello dei Welcome Back Sailors , duo emiliano cresciuto a suon di punk-hard core, brit pop e indie vario. Amici da una vita, Alessio e Danilo si divertono a giocare con sintetizzatori, tastiere e batteria elettronica, gelidi strumenti da cui riescono a ricavare suoni divertenti e rilassati. Già da alcuni anni sono stati notati dalla stampa estera e la cosa non sorprende. Nonostante le loro origini siano strettamente legate alla piatta pianura emiliana interrotta solo dallo scorrere del Po, il loro suono si discosta notevolmente dalla scena attuale della musica italiana “di [...]

Today it's suddenly raining and maybe summer's over? It's raining in my head too: I'm not sure I like my new flat, I dislike the person I've reverted to, and, easily worst of all, I fear that my beloved but increasingly stressed partner may imminently deem me as flotsam she can do without. I hope not; I don't know what I'd do, alone again. On despairing days like these, you need a despairing song to match, and Dream Cop 's sweet remix of Welcome Back Sailors ' romance-fearer fits the bill. For Tough Love Records ' recent sampler, the tape-wizard [...]

Most of the chilled-out space jams we hear in the scene today are from the good ol' USA (a lot of European and Latin/South American music seems too dancey party or something). But straight out of Italy is Welcome Back Sailors. The duo released their debut EP, I'll Be There to modest blog reaction earlier last year, but has churned out one more (free) release and a few singles since. "Season," their most recent song was made for the Unholy Rhythms We Fall Apart compilation . Their brand of light, pulsing synth behind [...]

Welcome Back Sailors New track off the upcoming compilation on Unholy Rhythms , also featuring the previously posted Moths , Kuhrye-oo and Ricky Eat Acid . Worth checking out. Welcome Back Sailors - Season (mp3 go here )

Les excellents italiens de Welcome Back Sailors nous la jouent romantiques avec un single digital spécial St valentin. Extrait de 'We Fall Apart: Unholy Rhythms & Cactus Mouth Valentine’s Day Mix' une playlist amoureuse aussi longue que son titre, vous pouvez télécharger Season tout seul par ici et la playlist (au fort accent Chill Wave) en entier par là ... via

Unholy Rhythms put out an absolutely killer Valentines Day mixtape on Monday. My personal favorite track comes from "Welcome Back Sailors." Coincidentally, I found Welcome Back Sailors no more than two weeks ago. "I'll Be There" has literally been on constant repeat for me since I first discovered them, and the new track Season was a welcome addition. New wave vocals and positively delightful harmonies set these guys apart from the chillwave hordes. Y'all know how much I love comparing bands, so I'd call Welcome Back Sailors some sort of chillwave Yellow Ostrich . [...]

Welcome Back Sailors are Italian. Oh wait, that doesn't really tell you anything. The band's a duo currently tossing up "balearic, chillwave, electo, indie, tropical" jams onto the interwebs (their words, not mine, but it just about sums things up). I recently pillaged all their summertime goodness off their Bandcamp page , and while I suggest you eventually do the same, check out my favourite belows... Right-Click + Save Link As: Welcome Back Sailors - I'll Be There [...]

Italy; renowned for it's exquisite food, it's elegant rivers and the imposing, monstrous alps; however not exactly a hotbed for brilliantly crafted indie pop music, despite it's Italo-disco culture. Alas, do not fret as Welcome Back Sailors might just be about to change our opinions of their country's musical output, with their artistic dream pop melodies and majestic reverb laden guitars, they're all set to take Europe by storm. Since their debut track I'll Be There caused quite a stir on the blogosphere, Welcome Back Sailors have gone from strength to strength, [...]
