and the Villa Nova...

Feb 10, 5:05am Hits In The Car
and the Villa Nova... Earlier this week I was contacted by Kristian of Chorus Grant , who asked if I'd be interested in posting a track from the forthcoming debut album and the Villa Nova as a free download (as well as adding a word or two about the album soon being out). I replied that of course I'd be interested, plus at the same time being thrilled about getting the opportunity to get an advanced listen to a much anticipated album. So [...]

The match factory...

Feb 9, 5:43am Hits In The Car
Check out this new track published by Clint of Play People under his real name… Peter Hall . Inspired by a match factory fire in Hartlepool back in 1954 ( this piece being the only info I've been able to find about the fire) and not really sounding anything like previous Play People recordings (supposedly the reason for not using the Play People alias). The voice is unmistakably the same, but the new track is less pop, more [...]

Extinctions...

Feb 8, 5:02am Hits In The Car
Extinctions... Business as usual, I guess? Everyone's going on about how the new Burning Hearts 's album is finally here and ignorant me has little clue about what's happening. So of course my first reaction is: WHAT! Is this something we've been waiting for? Then I check the archives, wind back the clock three years and suddenly remember that I actually enjoyed the debut album Aboa Sleeping immensely . And now that I've listened to Extinctions a few [...]

Rule the world...

Feb 7, 8:33am Hits In The Car
Socio Peruvian pop musician Francois Peglau has gone all political (surprise, surprise) and has published a brand new track called Goldman Sachs rules the world ...he's gone a little electronic as well and has invented (?) the genre Electronic Peruvian Folk . Don't think I've listened to every track recorded by Mr. Peglau , but of the ones have, this has to be his best one yet; both musically and lyrically! + [...]

There is a reason...

Feb 3, 6:55am Hits In The Car
I've been nagging Andreas of Danish band It's A Synth a few times recently asking for new tracks, as I've "grown tired" of listening to the same pair of tracks that's been available for some time now. So far the band has been somewhat reluctant to share any new recordings, holding the cards close to the chest. But the other day he recalled that a third track had actually been uploaded a few months ago to the sangskriver (songwriter) page at [...]

Azure Blue news...

Feb 2, 2:45am Hits In The Car
Azure Blue - Seasons
Of course they decided to post the new Azure Blue video right after I left work yesterday...so a little more than 12 hours late; here's the video for Seasons . I've mentioned before that Seasons was one of the best, if not the best, pop songs to be released last year, so of course it needs a video and a single (?) release. Perhaps the timing of the video release is a bit odd though, as the track seems far more [...]

Amanda Mair "Sense"
Check out the new video by Swedish teen sensation Amanda Mair for the track Sense . Her debut album will be out on Labrador (of course) on February 15 and judging from the three tracks I've heard so far, it should be a real treat! Amanda Mair " Sense " from Labrador Records on Vimeo . [...]

Do you not feel loved...

Feb 1, 4:30am Hits In The Car
This is so brilliant (though it clearly belongs to a genre that I'd normally avoid at any cost) and brought to my attention because I Am Noxious left a positive comment yesterday at New Build 's SoundCloud page...has turned a cold (though sunny) day into a party... B02 Do You Not Feel Loved? (Original Album Version) by [...]

Personal - Perfect Empty Clone [OFFICIAL VIDEO]
New video from the Greek "version" of White Lies ; Personal ...I know I'm bashing them quite a lot for be a little too inspired by the aforementioned band, but I cannot help liking them quite a lot as well...the song can be downloaded for free from the band's Facebook BandPage (or below)... + Perfect Empty Clone

Three words...

Jan 30, 4:04am Hits In The Car
The Approval - Three Words
The Approval has finally reached 1,000+ "likes" at Facebook and celebrates it by sharing a video for the unreleased track Three Words . Check the few words I wrote about their debut EP ; they do write some fine pop song and definitely is another band to keep a close eye on, though perhaps still a little too "boy bandish" for my taste (though this obviously has more to do with them being "poster boys" than it has to do with the [...]

Still they don't believe us...

Jan 27, 6:11am Hits In The Car
Still they don't believe us... Here's a new Danish band to keep an eye on. Still They Don't Believe Us is fronted by ex- The Imaginary Orchestra of Mr. Kite frontman Lars Villumsen and judging from the band name I was expecting it to be a least a little The Smiths inspired . Well it turned out they are not and instead sounding not at all unlike abovementioned IOOMK , though perhaps less Jeff Buckley inspired . As always [...]

The Holiday Crowd - Pennies Found
Mentioned the new EP by The Holiday Crowd earlier today. Just found this (unreleased?) remix of standout track Painted Like A Forest over at SoundCloud that I "simply have" to post. And while you're at it, why not check out the video for Pennies Found as well; yet another brilliant track of the EP (actually they are all brilliant!). [...]

Mails and such...

Jan 26, 3:01am Hits In The Car
Think I've been quite disciplined recently and done my best deleting mails from the inbox. Still the number has now reached and rapidly surpassed 10,000! Ten-thousand (or 10,103 to be exact)! Suck on that for a moment. If I spent one minute on each, it would take me a little more than 168 hours or exactly a week checking them all. So if you're still awaiting a reply; forget about it and move on… As always one of the big challenges, when your mailbox is cluttered like this, is to spot the important ones from the [...]

Chorus Grant: Videoteaser "BloodBrothers"
Chorus Grant will release their/his(?) debut album Chorus Grant and The Villa Nova on February 14 through Speed of Sound / A:Larm . A 33 seconds teaser video for the album closer Blood Brothers has been uploaded and sure promises to be a dark/sinister thing! Not sure when the full version of the video will be up (my best guess is February 14 as well), but will of course post it as soon as it's published... [...]
