We all know I hate Best of Lists that come out before the year is over so nearly 4 weeks into 2012 I finally present my best albums of 2011! (Still a day faster than last year !) Below are the top 10 albums from my 2011 followed by 10 honorable mentions. The list was compiled by weighing total play counts along with longevity. Not only did I listen to it a lot, but was I still reaching for it months after the honeymoon phase. These are those albums. Since I can't be bothered to rank these [...]
The amazing multi-instrumentalist will release her sophomore album in April // Follow Owl and Bear on Facebook and Twitter for contests, MP3s, and links that don't make it onto the blog.
I could've made this list twice as long but I capped it at 50. Most of these are actual singles. The rest should be. Beyond the top ten, ordering is fairly arbitrary. Metronomy - The Look ( MP3 | Video ) I first heard this song back in February and I have yet to tire of it. I wish the keyboard solo outro lasted forever. Exlovers - Blowing Kisses ( MP3 | Video ) Rocking shoegaze pop of the highest order. [...]

With the horizon of a new year seemingly inches away, we're proud to present our best songs of 2011. We have been slaving over albums and hidden tracks for the past month, but now the beginning of our five-part list of the best of the best. 100. Maritime - Paraphernalia The charmer of Human Hearts held the ethereal appeal from a group we come back to with each new record. The group signed with Dangerbird this year and we only see bright things in their future. [...]
We can't believe that 2011 has come and is nearly gone. So much music was put out this year and after an internal food fight, near stabbing and finally put to a vote - we give you this list.
Peter Bjorn and John have a brand new animated video for the tune "Down like me" .

El conteo parece que hasta el momento va bien, digo, parece que aun no hay tantas quejas sobre si me estoy pasando de mamon al incluir algunos y dejar fuera a otros pero claro, tal vez esto se deba a que aun no vamos ni a la mitad y aun esta el sentimiento de 'esperanza' de que alguno de sus favoritos aparesca dentro de este conteo aunque bueno, creo que tampoco es ese conteo por el que se estan comiendo las uñas. En este tercer dia recapitulamos algunos de los lanzamientos que sin duda nos dejaron mucho que desear siendo [...]
Tweetvaso link View the video for Peter Bjorn and John's catchy "Dig A Little Deeper." Perhaps I should have followed the band's advice and dug deeper into their latest record, but alas I have not.

Sydney's Guineafowl are fast becoming an Indie Shuffle favorite. Fresh from a jam-packed tour of the U.S. – which included a performance at the CMJ Festival – the five-piece have been touring their new single, "The Lie Is," around Australia. After releasing their debut EP, [...]
La verdad ya ni me acordaba que Peter Bjorn And John habia sacado un nuevo material este año y es que tambien para serles sincero forma parte de la lista de albums que decidi ignorar cuando aparecieron en su momento debido a que el primer sencillo de "Gimme Some" no fue taaan de mi agrado pero en vista de que los lanzamientos interesantes parecen haber terminado, lo escuchare al terminar de presentarles este nuevo video que acaban de lanzar de su mas reciente sencillo "Dig A Little Deeper", esta bueno, digo, creo que su material anterior tenia mejores tracks pero [...]
A new video from Peter Bjorn and John off their latest album "Gimme some" , still one of the year's best releases.
Peter Bjorn & John – "Dig a Little Deeper" Swedish rockers PB&J recently released a shapeshifting, shiny new music video for "Dig a Little Deeper", a track off of their massively underrated album Gimme Some from earlier this year. Check the album out if you haven't already—much like the song above, it's full of sparse, sprightly indie rock with hints of post-punk and reggae. Don't be surprised if you find yourself chair-dancing within a minute.

I've been backlogged on remixes for a while, so why not just unload them all at once? Starting off is Goldroom's sunny version of Niki & The Dove. Following is former NIN keyboardist Alessandro Cortini's new solo project SONOIO remixed by dance gurus Ladytron. An interesting remix by Second Date of Bon Iver's 2009 track "Babys". [...]
Mayer Hawthorne is no stranger to this blog. In fact he's on here pretty damn regularly. I freaking love this guys sound. It's incredible. I first heard him about 8-9 years ago when he was djing/producing for Athletic Mic League out of Ann Arbor, MI under the name DJ Haircut. My how far he has come. I've since seen him live a few times and will continue to every chance I get. He just gets music and it gets him. Here's a few remixes. If you want the full collection of songs I've posted from him, search for him above. [...]

After demonstrating his creativity with reworks while working closely with Chromeo on their remix EP, Mayer Hawthorne once again channels those skills to create a nice little remix of Peter Bjorn and John 's "Dig A Little Deeper" off of the Swedes' most recent album, Gimme Some . While more often than not the word "remix" may evoke thoughts of heavy bass and stabbing synths, Hawthorne looks towards the Motown sound for inspiration. Stream the sunny gem of a remix below. Peter Bjorn and John - "Dig A Little Deeper (Mayer [...]
A track for Sunday. Peter Bjorn and John: "Dig A Little Deeper" [Mayer Hawthorne Remix] [ mp3 ]
The Miserable Rich echo tales of debauchery, paranoia, and sweet nightmares like a travelling Dr. Parnassus-style band of misfits. It is the sweet meeting the sinister; modern lyrics meeting a backdrop of country mystery, rather like Gogol Bordello meeting The Decemberists somewhere in Eastern Europe for a swap of campfire stories. 'Miss The Days' is [...]
