Hin einkar afkastamikla bandaríska ný-hippakántrýsýrusveit, Akron/Family, hefur tilkynnt um útgáfu nýrrar plötu í Febrúar. Platan hefur fengið hinn útúr-sveppaða titil S/T II: The Cosmic Birth and Journey of Shinju TNT . Fyrr á árinu gaf sveitin út spunaplötuna Improv Series I sem hægt er að nálgast á bandcamp svæði þeirra . Þess má geta að platan Love is Simple , frá árinu 2007, er að mati undirritaðs einhver albesta plata síðasta áratugar og bíður hann því spenntur eftir þeirri nýju. Í tilefni [...]

Þann 6. september síðastliðinn kom út safnplatan We Were So Turned On : A Tribute to David Bowie af Manimal Vinyl styrktar War Child samtökunum í Bretlandi. Á plötunni má heyra tónlistarmenn á borð við Duran Duran , Carla Bruni , Devendra Banhart , Vivian Girls , Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros og A Place to Bury Strangers spreyta sig á lögum Bowie en þetta er, svo ég best veit, eina tribjút platan sem gerð hefur verið með hans blessun. Það er skemmst frá því [...]
This compilation was submitted to me by the dudes at Crash Avenue . Here are their thoughts on the project: "This month's title and album art is particularly personal. First, we lampoon one of our absolute favorite blogs, the incomparable Aquarium Drunkard , with AQUA BUDDHA DRUNKARD. With that, we additionally reference one of the most bizarre stories to come out of the midterm elections, and one from our state of Kentucky (Crash Avenue is based in Louisville) - Rand Paul's Aqua Buddha. Even if you don't pay much attention to politics, you've no doubt heard [...]

Eins sú hyldjúpasta tónlistarlega gullnáma sem ég hef haft þá ánægju að kafa ofan í nýlega birtist mér í formi safnplatnanna Written in Blood sem maður að nafni Nate Ashley setti saman. Segir sagan að hann hafi verið allan síðasta áratug að safna saman tónlistinni í þetta stórmerkilega safn en það inniheldur sjaldgæfa, óútgefna og illfáanlega tónlist úr hryllingsmyndum síðustu hálfrar aldar. Safnið inniheldur vel yfir 100 lög og er þar að finna verk eftir meistara eins og Ennio Morricone , Johan Soderqvist, Lalo Schifrin , François de Roubaix [...]

There is something about the Los Angeles band Warpaint that I am drawn to... Maybe it is their creative unpredictability? Just when you think the song is taking one direction, suddenly they incorporate another musical layer to the mix. It is this, along with the lovely melodic vocals of Emily Kokal, Theresa Wayman and Jenny Lee Lindberg, that attracts me. There are a few stand out tracks on the debut full length album, Undertow, Shadows and Majesty were by far my favorites. Definitely a band to keep your eye on... It will be interesting to see [...]

Menagerie are three guys from Adelaide, Australia, that just sent me "Cut Off Your Hands", one of the songs included on their debut LP. They are a mixture between psychedelic, roots and electronic, on which I didn't yet decide if I'm crazy into or not. One thing I can say though, this is a great song. Lovin' it since I first heard! If you want to hear more, check their soundcloud. Os Menagerie são 3 manos de Adelaide, Austrália, que acabaram de me mandar "Cut Off Your Hands", uma das [...]

by teepoo It's been a couple of weeks since the last one, but welcome back to IPOD SHUFFLE MONDAYS where I literally shuffle 10 tracks from my iPod and post them no matter how bad/embarassing! If anybody feels like submitting their list of songs for next week hit me up. 1. Dr. Draw- Adagio My favourite electric violinist. He got me obsessed with strings in things. 2. Sufjan Stevens- Get Real Get Right [...]

So, as we mentioned when we restarted the blog, we will start doing a wrap up on the end of week with some of the songs that just didn't manage to get a post of their own, obviously for our lack of time (don't think we're wasting your time, it's good stuff!). Click more for everything! Então, como mencionámos quando recomeçámos o blog, vamos começar a fazer um apanhado no final da semana com algumas das músicas que simplesmente não tiveram um post próprio, obviamente por falta de tempo nosso (não achem que estamos a perder [...]

Click image to download full album Sounds like: Washed Out, Toro y Moi, Memory Tapes "Neon Indian - Should Have Taken Acid With You" What's so good? No one goes to San Francisco’s Mezzanine thinking they will not dance; it’s just going to happen. When Neon Indian and Prefuse 73 played there recently, there was no exception. From the dense cloud of smoke emanating from the back alley smoking section, you could take a [...]

by teepoo John Blaze, he's an incognito character who sent me nothing except tracks and a Bandcamp page. Those are the types of people most other bloggers might probably ignore, but I didn't. His music is laid back lofi indie chillwavish. Like the music we've been listening to all summer, except now its so cold and I miss those days. The only track that has vocals is Pretty Redhead John Blaze- New Pajamas John Blaze- Pretty Redhead [...]

Everyone knows that Crystal Fighters are releasing their first LP in a few days, more exactly on the 4th of October. Well, since the guys love to be loved, they are streaming the whole "Star of Love" on their soundcloud. Joy, oh joy! Toda a gente sabe que os Crystal Fighters vão lançar o primeiro LP dentro de alguns dias, mais exactamente dia 4 de Outubro. Bem, como a rapaziada adora ser adorada, estão a disponibilizar todo o "Star of Love" no soundcloud da banda. Alegria, oh que alegria! [...]
Blackbird Blackbird could have been the definition for nostalgia, at least in my dictionary. I hear them and my mind is sent to outer space. Some call it shoegaze (which I kind of agree), some call it dream pop or even new wave psychedelic. I like to call it wondery, because it makes me aerial. Since their "Summer Heart" LP is only coming out on the 28th ("Pure" will be the first single), I'll leave you here with one of songs on their Rarities EP. Blackbird Blackbird podia ser a definição para [...]

Two days ago I realized that I for forgot to post this one! Well... Guess I was too occupied being the King Of The Beach. We love Wavves !! Há dois dias cheguei à conclusão de que me esqueci de postar esta! Bem... Estava demasiado ocupado a ser o King Of The Beach, haha! We love Wavves ! Wavves - King Of The Beach miguel l.

Hljómsveitin The Third Sound hefur gefið út hljómplötu samnefnda sveitinni. The Third Sound er í raun hliðarsjálfs tónlistarmannsins Hákons Aðalsteinssonar , en hann semur og flytur öll lög plötunnar. Hákon Aðalsteinsson er liðsmaður Singapore Sling og fyrrum liðsmaður Hudson Wayne og er hljóðheimur The Third Sound ekki fjarri þessum hljómsveitum. Hákon býr og starfar að tónlist sinni í Berlín og hefur komið sér upp hljómsveit til að kynna plötuna um alla Evrópu. The Third Sound stefnir einnig á tónleikahald á Íslandi þegar nær dregur jólum.

Nýsækadelikusveitin Dungen er eitt af merkilegri tónlistarfyrirbærum sem Svíþjóð hefur alið af sér. Sveitin, sem leidd er af undrabarninu Gustav Ejstes (sem semur öll lögin, syngur og spilar á flest öll hljóðfærin inn á plötur Dungen) hlaut fyrst athygli utan heimalandsins árið 2004 þegar fjórða plata hennar, Ta De Lungt , kom út. Í kjölfarið leiddi Dungen nokkrar tónleikaferðir um Bandaríkin og kom m.a. fram í þætti Conan O'Brien. Sem er í raun afar merkilegt þegar tekið er tillit til þess að öll lög sveitarinnar eru sungin á sænsku og tónlistin hvorki nútímaleg né sérstaklega [...]

The Gaslamp Killer makes a long awaited return on Brainfeeder with his new EP "Death Gate". This time he has continued his collaboration with Gonjasufi to deliver a psyched out slice of electronica to get those spines shivering. This hits in mid October but thanks to Pitchfork you can grab an early listen. The Gaslamp Killer - When I'm In Awe (Ft Gonjasufi)

Fast Foot is every responsible parent's worst nightmare of who their children grow up to be. Just like a malignant cancer, this Russian crew is spreading some seriously dirty electro house around the globe. Although they aren't very well known in the west, this fact is beginning to change. Not only have they constructed an impressive discography but they also have a free podcast that just feeds you their new disgusting tracks in 320kbps! So let's examine the kind of filth that Fast Foot has been so [...]
![[Listen/Review]Steph en Paul Smoker- Violent Sun/Violent Fun EP](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2803707_lg.jpg)
by teepoo Stephen Paul Smoker hails from Chicago and built his skill around touring with mewithyou and the Mint . His new EP Violent Sun/Violent Fun is quite a hypnotic and psychedelic ride. The EP begins with My Summer's Waning Glow an upbeat bright track that almost sorta reminds me of Cut Copy. You get entranced by the subtle changes in the background noises. Hide and Tell is a somewhat noisy track, [...]
