Of Montreal have been one of indie rock's most prolific- and most whimsical- mainstays for quite some time. The recent release of their newest LP, Paralytic Stalks, marks the band's eleventh full-xlength album within a span of fifteen years. During that time, we have been witness to the personal and artistic evolutions of frontman Kevin Barnes, Of Montreal's leader and founding father. Through his records, Barnes has dealt with issues of unrequited love (1997's Cherry Peel, ) created a Ziggy-like alter ego (2008's Skeletal Lamping, ) and even suffered through a mental breakdown (the total genius of 2007's [...]
This week, Luxembourg "Shoefazing Dream Wonky Bleeps" producer Victor Ferreira, better known as Sun Glitters, released his latest EP "High." For those of you who have become acquainted with the producer's sound over the past year or so, this record won't shock you with the direction it has taken. In fact, experimentation doesn't seem to be one of the top priorities of the EP. Instead, each original track from "High" carries a touch of familiarity with it, as if one of the goals of the EP was to summate or exemplify the unique styles we've already gotten to [...]
Honestly, it's very hard for me to express myself when i listen to experimental or chillwave music. In my opinion this is brilliant. I have never heard Falcons before and i have met BobbyThank trought the latest blog post Joel wrote about him. Check out above the info about this release! After Indian Summer and Remixxes Vol. 1, the American-Canadian duo unveil their first single to be released on Juicy. Nigeria is a dark track, a solitary noctural trip through the buildings of a deserted town. Mingling uptempo juke rhythms, R&B, and [...]
This magnificent track/video is from a French project called Tristesse Contemporaine formed by Narumi, Léo and Maik. Their music is influenced by Punk, Tango and Psychedelic beats. "I Didn't Know" belongs to their first LP, which was produced by Pilooski (Discodeine), to be released on March via Dirty .. Golden Music... Follow Golden Scissors on Facebook

by teepoo I'm not sure why I am choosing the end of the year to introduce you to some pretty strange stuff, but here's Montreal's Each Other which I stumbled on through Bandcamp . They have one of those generic band names that are quite hard to google for me to tell you more about them. They are a neat mix of alternative pop and what reminds me of classic rock.. well sort of. The guitar licks are quite catchy though. Each Other- Odd Body [...]
Andrew Weatherall did a really god job in the "Sun God" track, which is taken from Cut Copy's briliant "Zonoscope" album. This remix takes us into some kinda of dreamy trip. I love the way this late 902s producer rides this track with some darkness but also smoothness... The single, with two versions of the remix, will be available digitally and on vinyl January 20th (AUS), January 23rd (UK/EU), and January 24th (US).Enjoy!

by teepoo I just realized, in the previous post I told you the song was produced by Slim Twig, but I had never posted anything by Slim Twig previously. The man behind it is Max Turnball. If you thought the previous song was weird, check this out. Slim Twig- There's A Secret To Your Pleasure Official Site
by teepoo The really confusing part about U.S. Girls is that it's the moniker for Torontonian Megan Remy. To make things more confusing, she's recently released a 73 on Belgian label Kraak . Maybe it's because they can properly appreciate this rather interesting lo-fi psych pop. It took me a couple listens to appreciate it properly but after 5 listens, I couldn't stop. The album was co-produced by fellow Canadian Slim Twig. U.S. Girls- Island Song . Here's the video for [...]
by teepoo Little Girls - White Night from Hand Drawn Dracula on Vimeo . Little Girls Cults has got to be one of my favourite releases of this year. Their songs are just full of fuzzy creepy vocals that are strangely enjoyable. Check out their video for White Night .
Hey, hversu mikið fílaru Bítlana? Nógu mikið til að hlusta á öll lögin í einu? Um daginn rakst ég á hljóðskrá þar sem einhver hefur tekið saman öll 226 lögin sem komu út með Bítlunum, sett þau saman og stillt þau þannig af að þau enda á sama tíma. Það krefst mikils úthalds að komast í gegnum lagið". Eða eins og einn netverji sagði: ,,Þetta verður rosalega flókið undir lokin. En svoleiðis enduðu Bítlarnir líka."

I always feel a little awkward putting an exclamation point in the name of a band. Seems like that kind of punctuation should be saved for song titles, not song writers. But with Jacksonville, Florida duo Sunbears!, it doesn't feel quite as uncomfortable. And that's because their brand of psychadelic, electronic indie rock sorta gives [...]

![[Listen/Download] Kestrels- There All The Time Without You](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3845348_lg.jpg)
by nashawa Kestrels are a hybrid of straight-up pop and unsophisticated soundscape-ery. They're sloppy as all hell, but the best part of them is how little that matters. Kestrels is clearly making music they enjoy and they're having a good time doing it. This comes across vividly on "There All the Time Without You." More music should translate this way. It almost hurts when you hear a band that is trying too hard to impress you; Kestrels will get the job done without lifting a finger. [...]
Puberty is especially hard on the guys. And before you start claiming differently, I'll tell you why. The loss of our falsetto. Once our voices change, we can no longer soar into the lofty upper ranges with the angels and eunuchs and choir boys. How'd you like your wonderful Beiber-esque voice to fade to the [...]
Það hefði kannski frekar verið við hæfi að hafa nýja 24 tíma lagið með The Flaming Lips , 7 Skies H33 sem rjómalag dagsins. Hægt er að hlýða á lagið í live-streami á netinu í dag og væri því upplagt að hringja í Sigga Sýru, bjóða honum í heimsókn og hanga inni í allan dag og hlusta á nýja tónlist með Flaming Lips. Ef maður er hins vegar upptekinn getur maður bara keypt lagið á USB-lykli sem er inni í alvöru hauskúpu af manneskju. Kostar litla 5000 dollara.

by teepoo Even though it's not summer, I can still hope for sun admist the large amount of rainy days we've been having here in Toronto. Funny thing about Pleasure Cruise is they are from Vancouver, where it constantly rains. Maybe it's in those rainy days that Pleasure Cruise got together and sing songs that sound like they belong on a beach. Nothing better than jamming on a rainy day about better things!

Daphni , aka Dan Snaith, aka Caribou , launches his new label, Jiaolong. This isn't his first try under the disco-funk alias; he has two releases out on the Resista label under the name Daphni, and they are both otherworldly. This limited 12" comprises of three tracks one of which, 'Yes I know', was featured on his Resident Advisor podcast. The a-side features a revision of Togolese monster hit, 'Ne Noya', from afro-beat sensations, Cos-Ber-Zam, and it falls into a dancehall afro-beat number that gets treatment from Dan's ingenious electronic orchestrations and syncopations. The releases' [...]
