The VPME The Great Escape 2013 Those nice people at Hype Machine asked us to pick our five MUST see acts at this year's Great Escape Festival… You can see our choices here But here they are in ever so slightly more depth 1. Findlay Every time we've seen Natalie Findlay and her band they just seem to get better and better. [...]
Photo by G. Daft Punk'd When the 902s house music French duo Daft Punk announced a new album, the blog-o-sphere was tilted on its side. Releasing teaser posters, commercials featuring 30 seconds or less of new music and a sound-byte a day to the music press, you realize that whoever does Daft Punk's publicity should give up their day job and run for political office. They took a non-event and turned it into a media blitz. The press as well as the fans seemingly could not [...]
MS MR. Ya les habíamos contado sobre MS MR , (quienes hicieron un interesante remix a MØ ) un dúo de Nueva York que hace electro pop de gran calidad. Hasta ahora, la pareja sólo tenía editados unos cuantos sencillos (incluido "Hurricane", el cual fue remezclada por CHVRCHES ) y un EP, Candy Bar Creep Show . MS MR estrenarán su álbum debut, Secondhand Rapture , el 13 de mayo, y pueden escucharlo de principio a fin a través de The Hype Machine . Son [...]
New York City based act MS MR have filmed an official video for “Hurricane,” the first single off of their upcoming debut release Secondhand Rapture out May 14th on Columbia Records. Filmed in Southern California by writer / director Luke Gilford, the video is a bewitching glimpse into otherworldly experiences of suburban youth. The video is available now for viewing at Vevo here. The duo recently announced that they’ll complete a set of headlining dates around the release of Secondhand Rapture in May. This run will include a sold-out night in their hometown at [...]

Enjoy. ♩ MS MR - Hurricane (CHVRCHES Remix) Update: Aquí podemos escuchar 'Secondhand Rapture' via Hype Machine:
This weeks edition of new tunes comes to you courtesy of Fitz and the Tantrums . After blowing everyone out of the water in 2010 with Pickin' Up the Pieces , they will finally (officially) return next Tuesday with their second full album More Than Just a Dream . Many of you have probably heard the lead track and first single "Out of My League" and know that the soul-pop group is bringing the noise exactly the way they know how. Other tracks that stood out to me include "Spark," "Fools Gold," which is probably the most pop-influenced and one [...]
We're about week away from the release of the new Fitz and The Tantrums album, More Than Just A Dream (out on May 7), but you can listen to it now in its entirety at the The Hype Machine . Stream it here . The band will be in town opening for Bruno Mars on June 24th at the Wells Fargo Center and back in town for Made In America over Labor Day Weekend.
The VPME Having been one of the first UK blogs to write and interview Velvet Two Stripes, tipping them for BBC 6 Music and presenting them with one of our famous "Pipster" awards last year, we are obviously delighted by news of their announcement of their first official UK release. Their 4 track 'Fire EP' is set to drop on 20.5.2013 with the lead track ( somewhat unsurprisingly called 'Fire') sounding edgier than a Swiss Mountain ledge. Sophie's fabulous vocal simply oozes a bluesy uncontrived [...]

All Eyes on MØ Live at Hype Hotel - SXSW 2013 One of my favorites to emerge from SXSW is Copenhagen’s MØ . 24-year-old Karen Marie Ørsted emerged onstage barefoot for the set, delivering a non-stop soulful dance performance over an electronic backdrop. With just a handful of songs floating around on the internet, I am anxious to hear more from MØ soon! More pictures from the set can be here along with some of Vacationer.
With all the new technology out there to make music, there's nothing better than a simple track with powerful lyrics. Fyfe is a newcomer that caters to just that need. In one of only two songs he has out there, Fyfe manages to capture the essence of a modern-day lullaby. It's stark and naked, relying heavily on its fragile melody and ever-present vocals. If given the right light, this song can be as big as Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know." Not to mention the endless remix possibilities. Related [...]
I'm writing this to you while trying to piece together the past few days and simultaneously fighting off a killer headache. SXSW is complete chaos in the best of ways, with thousands joining together to endure 16 hour days and the inevitable loss of your personal belongs/sobriety. For me it was a chance to be completely immersed in concerts surrounded by my favorite people in music all while wearing shorts. I definitely lied to get into at least one show, and learned that three glasses of water and a red bull vodka will cure almost anything that ails you. Here [...]
Hundred Waters - Thistle @ Elestial Sound SXSW Showcase from Tiny Waves on Vimeo . It's always nice to take a bit of a break from all the starkly harsh dark beauty of goth-electro and bathe for a moment in something a little refreshing and delicious as I did on Friday, 3/15, at the Stereogum SXSW Day Party at Hype Machine. The group I saw was quite new to me. I was there, frankly, to imbibe a bit on some free Tito's Vodka at the open bar and meet up with a cool cat [...]

My helper Eli tricked me into watching another band that he claimed was Goth. Their name is very deceiving as it was taken directly from the Gothic alphabet. By any means they were very White-Witch with a real synth-electro-pop vibe. Their set was surprisingly energetic.

AluneGeorge : up there with Syron, Jessie Ware and Laura Mvula in Stark's highly-prized canon of UK, female artists to watch. The label dream...breaking from the UK and making waves in the States; all the above are doing just that.
