![[Listen/Download] Ohama- Where Do You Call Home?](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4054400_lg.jpg)
by teepoo Japanese-Canadian Ohama aka Tona Walt Ohama sounds like he's stuck in the 80s with this crazily addictive synth-pop. The dude is from Rainer, Alberta. Perhaps when he was bored of the flat prairies he bought a synth and started experimenting. He even makes fun of it sort of in Where Do You Call Home with the line " I live on a potato farm" that kicks it off. It's almost like spoken word over some loveable beats. Ohama- Where Do You [...]

by teepoo On March 6th Paper Beat Scissors will release their self-titled debut album. It's an album that flourishes with Tim Crabtree's haunting voice. Here's a sneak peak with the track Rest Your Bones . The song is pretty bare compared to the rest of the album but the delicate emotions still pretend themselves in an album about endingss and new beginnings. Paper Beat Scissors- Rest Your Bones
SolarSolar-Walking Like Children (Official video) from SolarSolar on Vimeo . SolarSolar will be releasing their album Pilot on February 21st, 2012 but for now check out the video for Walking Like Children . Can't wait!
Today's song of the day is from Zachary Lucky and his track "Back in the Fall" from his upcoming album Saskatchewan (some say EP, some say LP, some say who the hell cares, just let us hear it already). The song is simply fantastic. Whether it is the lazy banjo, the pedal steel or the honest delivery (when his voice just starts to crack when he first sings "Back in the Fall" - it's killer). The song is seems like it is not necessarily a story about a past relationship rather than a mantra to himself [...]
![[Album Review/Stream] Leonard Cohen- Old Ideas](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4049382_lg.jpg)
by nashawa It's really difficult to come into an album like Old Ideas without preconceived notions. We all know who Leonard Cohen is and the weight the name carries in this country. As a songwriter, it's very hard to not trace a trail of influence back to him regardless of the style of music you write. For me, there is no trail: Leo is the be-all-end-all of Canadian songwriting as far as overall package is concerned - in my not-so-humble opinion - so there wasn't much of a chance [...]
![[Listen/Download] Police des Moeurs- Monde Fallacieux](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4048725_lg.jpg)
by teepoo It's hard to find anything on Police de Moeurs that is English but they are a chillwave band from Montreal, Quebec. They're influenced by 80s fetichism, nostalgia, boredom and insatisfaction and delusion. If you could understand French you get that sort of in Monde Fallacieux . If not, you can just get lost in their simple yet hypnotic rhythm. Police des Moeurs- Monde Fallacieux Bandcamp
HI54LOFI Records has a new compilation out to commemorate Valentines Day next week appropriately called 'I Love You & Stuff" but wait, it's soo much more. This isn't just 15 tracks to impress the one you love/like or even not remotely know, you also get the opportunity to actually send them a Valentine card with your "purchase". Come on, you know you want to spread the love and what better way than with music (...says the music blogger). There are some really great tracks on this compilation and [...]

![[Listen/Download] Ox- Out On the Weekend](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4047352_lg.jpg)
by teepoo Seems like we posted tracks by Ox quite a few times recently but haven't really said much about him. There's nothing much to him except that he's from the West Coast and writes simple, yet enjoyable songs. Here's one he didn't write though. It's a cover of Neil Young's Out On the Weekend and I think he does Neil some justice. Ox- Out on the Weekend

by teepoo Not sure where this Halifax Nova Scotia band thought of it's name from. Maybe they ate a ton of Quaker brand oatmeal growing up. Well they grew up to make some pretty interesting music that has an almost classic 70s surf-pop vibe. Check out the quirky Teeshirt . If you're digging it, there's a ton of free stuff on their Bandcamp . Quaker Parents- Teeshirt
![[Listen/Download] The City Streets- How I Pray](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4044671_lg.jpg)
Originally from Edmonton, The City Streets now reside in Montreal. Their pretty indie pop but there's a slight tinge of punk to their sound. Then to make things more confusing How I Pray throws in a saxophone. They have some free EPs released but their planning to release not one but two full length albums in spring 2012 named Sawdust and Rum and Winter Lightening . The City Streets- How I Pray Website
![[Listen/Download] Whitehorse- Killing Time Is Murder](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4044547_lg.jpg)
by teepoo One of my favourite husband and wife duos is probably Whitehorse because they don't have to be all cute when they're in duet. For example in Killing Time Is Murder there's a pretty dark, dirty and naughty atmosphere about it. The song comes off their self-titled debut that was released last October.
