Happy Janglin with Edward Sharpe and his Magnetic Zeros.
Nice part from 2:24 on..
And I just booked tickets for Micachu at the Brussels’ Botanique. Sounds coooool.
Kitty, Daisy and Lewis are between 14 and 19 years old and they rock their billies alll the way!
Also new (album) & very beautiful. A Weltschmerz mix of shoegaze, dreampop and wave. XX is OO!
(but only for a few songs, then I long for Micachu again)
Audacity of huge! Simian Mobile Disco! Super traaaack!
Chill archi-french new song/band/clip..
‘Live good’ by Naive new beaters
The new video for ‘When I Grow Up’ from Fever Ray (Karin Dreijer Andersson, The Knife).
Intense, ominous, and other-worldly. Or very this-world, depending on the colour of your sunglasses.
This will never end cause I want more.
Indeed. That is. What a stirring mantra. It’s the boundless loop of Fever Ray‘s (The Knife sliced in two) first single ‘If I Had A Heart’. The song is a dark evocation of hope and a demand for more. Like a deep sleep spreading over fields and endless oceans. Enjoy this wonderful nocturnal cruise.

The video for ‘If I Had A Heart’ was directed by Andreas Nilsson.
Snorry, no images but the sound will do. This is a brand new track from yoyow-species Common, in collaboration with Chester French, two boys from Massachusetts, being chased by Pharell, Mr West and Jermaine Dupri to catch them into their labels (they chose Pharrell’s Star Trak).
Choosing your buddies, rule number one on planet music. And yes, letting yoyow-species do it with hipcat-species seems to be very fruitful. This will become a popular dancefloor killer, if you ask Suzy from the musicpolice.
More Chester French here. ‘Beneath the veil’ is a good song, the other ones are so so. To keep an eye on anyway.

Two ministering angels will be showered upon us from the 9th of December on, comfortably on time for the Christmas period (and for all the other seasons to come). That day, the first record of the American duo Monique Aiuto and her Presbyterian pastor/husband Thomas Vito will be released. It is warmly titled ‘Welcome to the Welcome Wagon’, and is produced by the enigmatic singer-songwriter-producer Sufjan Stevens (Illinois! Seven Swans!). The record is rolling in reveries and other unctuous songs, accompanied by the lovely voices of the couple and well timed friendly orchestral arrangements (which never sound priggish or – almost never – dramatic). And with a beautiful cover of The Smiths (‘Half a person’). Don’t focus too much on the lyrics though, that’ll make the religious experience a little too explicit, unless you’re after that of course. Not for the hard-boiled cynics, ideal for all the other human beings running around with ears on both sides of their heads.
I have written a short review (in Dutch), to be published soon on Cucamonga.
In the meanwhile, you can gaze dreamily at this beautiful sleeve, and listen to them. Great label by the way, Asthmatic Kitty records (owned by Sufjan Stevens). Check out Sufjan Stevens’ releases and the Castanets, beautiful as well.
And some Sufjan Stevens bittersweetness (‘Casimir Pulaski day’ – album Illinois). If Jesus Christ would hear this, he’d absolutely go wild. Now that’s something I would like to witness. I guess. Ok here I’ll stop.
Or no, one more (an oldie). Totally different (it is time to scream again) Modest Mouse ! – ! – !
I saw these angry angels live in Brussels this year, and they are just superb.
