Up and coming Brooklyn band Fast Years makes an arty debut video.

Having a slow week? Here's something that'll help speed things up a little for you. Meet Fast Years. They are from New York. Broadly speaking, there's a little too much garage-pop around these days, and indeed, the fact that they hail from the same city as The Strokes doesn't help their case much, but appearances can be deceptive. It's clear who they take their cues from, but they are considerably more than just a pale imitation of their influences. The track we've decided to feature ( free download alert! ) is entitled Young Heart , and it is an [...]

Maston - Young Hearts R. Frank Maston is a Los Angeleno, and a self-proclaimed 'one man psychedelic pop band'. Unabashed about where his influence comes from. Such a proclamation is a bold one, one that needs some evidence to support. Luckily for us, the evidence is all too clear. This fresh cut shows just what Maston is capable of, trumpets blaring, and those yearning lyrics bouncing against that wonky baseline. It's a special talent that can recycle sounds in a new and unique way. [...]

"Young Heart" comes from new Brooklyn collective Fast Years. The track goes polar-throwback in it's tendencies towards garage and pop. Especially for those still letting a renaissance of bands like The Vaccines still sink in. The band will be opening for Howler in their home town later this January.

We've missed our monthly Friday nights at the Mercantile so it was a great pleasure to return to action on Friday night and in the name of a good cause to boot. Our guests were the Young Hearts Run Free, the collective who work tirelessly on raising funds for the Dublin Simon Community. They brought with them, not only a fine array of cakes, but some tasty musical treats too. Hello Moon have already caught our attention with their debut album Only Count The Sunny Hours but they're an even better proposition live. The all encompassing [...]
If you've been anywhere near a TV for the past fortnight you can't have helped but notice the striking advertisement in support of Simon Week, the Dublin Simon Community 's annual drive to raise awareness of homelessness and issues affecting people who are homeless. Music and arts collective Young Hearts Run Free are longtime supporters of the charity and as such we are delighted to announce that the return of the State vs... live shows will see us team up with them for a fundraiser for this most worthwhile charity. As ever, the gig at the Mercantile in Dublin [...]
Yet another set of HMCMB sessions have come your way, this time from London's Younghearts. Die-hard readers may remember our first celebratory post on their reformation HERE . We met up with the guys outside the Camden Barfly one late afternoon before their gig there that evening. As one of the first proper sessions we were filming, we struck location gold with a tunnelled alley in Camden, sun effects galore. Oh Camden aren't you pretty. The filming amassed some crowds of well over 30, and several bouts of clapping and complimenting. By all means it was a [...]

Given that I have today off, I am going use it to catch up on a few things we missed in the past month. First up, a new music video from the Philly duo Fortune Family featuring a dope sample of Rod Stewart's "Young Turks." Download: Fortune Family - Young Hearts

The Fam put out the promo vid for this new track way back in July, and now, almost a month later, we got the real thing plus a video. 'Young Hearts' is Fortune Family's triumphant return into the game after what feels like a year's absence- the group hasn't dropped any new tracks since their groundbreaking Paradox EP way back in February (save that "Hasta La Vista" remix ). Well, it was definitely worth the wait- this is one of my favorite songs of the summer and came with some sick visuals that [...]

Friday 5th August 2011 saw Underage Festival take place at Victoria Park, and thanks to Younghearts (who you should check out on facebook HERE ) we were able to be there and experience an again exceptional line up, something Underage manages to pull out every year despite it's relatively small billing. The day opened up with Rizzle Kicks on the main stage, who we've perhaps a touch of bias for having followed them since their brilliant debut tape in 2009 and with them being a local Brighton act, who we've covered before HERE . Unfortunately we [...]
Ah, it feels good to have this column back up and running again! Hopefully you haven't forgotten me, you delightful people you. This column has always been about taking a look at some tracks that have been floating around the blogosphere in recent times, covering a fair share of remixes, house, electro, disco but also just acts that are getting some blog hype - quite a mixed bag, but always with some tunage in there. So hope you enjoy it being back, and hopefully you'll find some gems in there to fall in love with, because that is what it [...]

We usually run the fuck away (Real McCoy style) from synth-driven plural nondescript noun bands. Cause chances are, they're either boring, shitty or some sort of combination of both. On "Young Hearts", Dutch electro outfit Routines rise above their plural noun band peers with the help of a great soulful vocal, well constructed arrangement, and none of that _____wave haze synth-setting shit. Get behind Routines below. Routines - Young Hearts Routines ( Soundcloud ) ( Facebook ) ( Twitter ) [...]
New Teaser from Fortune Family, "Young Hearts"

It's difficult for me to forget the time I watched Laura Marling play songs on my battered television set. It was off the back of a promising EP but it more than set in stone the hope that she'd take off to bigger places. Admirably, Elena Tonra aka. Daughter has managed to summon similar promise within a few listens to ' His Young Heart' . It'd be fairly foolish to compare Marling on Tonra on any other ground apart from the fact that both, at an early stage in their career, looked [...]
the JEREMY JOHNSTONE has erected the YOUNG WIDOWS new music video for their FUTURE HEART mp3 which pretty much got a he-fella running round some night light streets. wotyougot
