I guess what they say is true: Good things do come to those who wait -- at least until sometime after episode three. Despite its shaky start, Revenge is growing on me. I'm halfway through the first season, and while I'm not completely hooked, line and sinker, I'm sitting somewhere near the edge of my seat. During the climax of episode 11, when the birthday clam bake on the beach was interrupted by a psychotic wielding an unloaded pistol, I had to shift position lest I fall off the couch. I remain unsold on the [...]
I have since been obsessed with pop group Little Dragon's formidable remixing talent but little did I know just how magical their own music was. I stumbled upon their of 'Cocaine' by The Internet - a layered and jittery scoundscape that makes for addictive listening. So just who is Little Dragon you ask? They are a Swedish electronic band, formed in Gothenburg. There is Swedish-Japanese singer Yukimi Nagano as well as her her close high school friends Erik Bodin, Fredrik Källgren Wallin and Håkan Wirenstrand. I recently unearthed their simply astounding and [...]

What a better way to end the weekend than to introduce the Bopper Nation to Little Dragon. Although straying from the more 'traditional electronic' music that we normally feature, the music of Little Dragon captures the inspirational era from which a lot of electronic music is based. Trapped in a time of it's own, this band produces a sound, which could replicates the 80's but is significantly a sound of their own. As Tommie Sunshine said, "what is in the water in Sweden? I want a jug." Little Dragon is Swedish Japanese singer, Yukimi Nagano and drummer Erik [...]
Little Dragon Twice: When Wendy & Lisa tell you to pay attention to a group, you do it. And the fact they're Swedish makes them all the better. A piano ballad built around two notes. From the Bjorkian school. Wintry. On iTunes worldwide.
Please dig this band. Yours, Glucky.
Paavoharju - Ursulan Uni (mp3) Paavoharju - Kevtrumpu (mp3) And now for something Scandinavian, Paavoharju are a folk collective from Finland and the video comes from Swedish neo-soul group Little Dragon. Scratchy lo-fi electronica seems a fitting accompaniment to shadow puppets so mute the video and play the Paavoharju tracks instead. Each affects [...]
Thanksgiving is over, but the hangover lingers on. If you're like me, your body is still recovering from last week's binge behavior: first the dinner, than the beer, than the leftovers. And here we find ourselves, safely on the other side of the weekend, five pounds heavier and still sluggish from the tryptophan and caloric overdose. For those of you lucky enough to find yourselves in this sad condition in the city of Brotherly Love, the M Room offers the perfect European solution to your American gluttony. Swedish electronic quartet, Little Dragon are bringing [...]

Little Dragon Little Dragon (11.2007, Peacefrog) Verdict = Swedish Soul Music This review is going to end up being pretty short because I definitely have no clue what I’m talking about when it comes to R&B. However, Little Dragon is a breath of fresh, soulful air that is worth some attention. Tight jazz drums and sparse electronics are the bedding for indie diva Yukimi Nagano’s warm vocals. The music may come from Sweden, but it may as well have been birthed from, uh, wherever R&B was birthed because the music has got some serious [...]
