So I know I’ve been slacking, but it’s only because I didn’t want to throw random stuff that I wasn’t sure about at you. So this weekend, I promise I will get my research in a head of time and have plenty of music to fill your ears with. This song got me swaying in my chair with its awesome beat. Enjoy!
Sameblod – UR Road
The perfect song to head into the weekend with and I only stumbled upon it this morning(their album was released in April 2012). Beautiful electro pop from Sameblod out of Stockholm. I know I will be playing this song quite frequently. Give them a listen!
Taken by Trees – To Lose Someone
It’s Throwback Thursday and I’m thrownin’ it back to the amazing Taken by Trees! After Victoria Bergsman left the Concretes she formed Taken by Trees and I am so glad she did because music would be sad without her beautiful voice and well written heart felt lyrics.
Lykke Li – Never Gonna Love Again
So I didn’t want to post anything until I heard the whole album a few times and could make an executive decision on what my favorite song was. Yesterday, Lykke Li released a highly anticipated third album, “I Never Learn” After listening to the album about 20 times, I have decided my favorite song is “Never Gonna Love Again.” Highly relatable lyrics paired with Lykke’s unique lovely vocals make this song a beautiful power ballad pleasure for the ears. What can I say about the whole album in one word? Heartbreak. But the greatness of this album did not break my heart cause I’m still in love with Lykke!
Tiger Forest Cat – New York New York
Love this artist’s name! Though its called “New York New York” I’m pretty sure the video was filmed in Paris. So take a moment and sit back in your chair and just enjoy!
Mariam the Believer – Above the World
So sorry for my break from blogging while my brother was here, but I am back! And I present to you the solo project of Mariam Wallentin from Wildbirds & Peacedrums. This is a lovely piece of experimental pop and it has me swaying in my chair right now. The video is so interesting and awesome as well!
The Knife – Pass This On
Tonight Tonight I’m seeing the Knife tonight! And in honor of this joyous occasion I will post my favorite song by them.
Zeigeist – Wrecked Metal
In honor of Brother Oblivious’ arrival in NYC tonight, I will put up a band he introduced me to, Zeigeist. Unfortunately for us, they are no longer together but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy them any longer. I love this song, and its perfect for running and dancing. Turn up your speakers!
OLD – Knee Hang Gang
How do I describe this other than it reminds of me 80’s freestyle music? And the beat makes me wanna sway dance. It’s like sensory overload at its best!
This is Head – Staring Lenses
RReleased earlier this year, Staring Lenses by This is Head is a musical dream for your ears. I was introduced to their music by the lovely friend Tina from Sweden. It was one of the first on her long list, and I must say I love it!
