M83 = Midnight City

Jonas

Our Fridaytune is a epic song from M83 – who today announced their Swedish tour of 2012. They will come to Stockholm Feb 25 and Malmö Feb 29 and it will be very special.

M83s Anthony Gonzales takes us for a ride through the history of music. He combines Jesus and Mary Chain with Sonic Youth, it´s kraut and psych and electronica and whatever.

Check out his song Midnight City, a partystomper who even includes a sax-solo and makes it sound cool.

Struck with Dengue Fever

Jonas

Check out ’Dengue Fever’, a six-member band from Los Angeles who makes blues- and psychodeliavibes with influences from the Cambodian rockscene of the 60´s and 70´s. Chhom Nimol sings in both khmer and english while the band mix surfrock, loungemusic, klezmer, The Doors and Jimi Hendrix-stuff.

Listen to the song. It´s a slow, revovling ceilingfan. It´s the smoke of a cigar rising towards the dark night. It´s cheap mekong-whisky, sweat and perfume. You can hear the murmur from the bar and every insect outdoor as the evening dies. Cheers GG, our own DJ Kurtz, for giving us the fever.

Roddy got it going on

Jonas

Deer Tick opened our eyes to the rowdy barfighters of J. Roddy Walston & The Business. This is real time rock n´roll with the swagger of greatness all around.

Bend over Beethoven, we dig the unholy marriage of Jerry Lee Lewis & Lynyrd Skynyrd. Check out these live vids from Austin City Limits this fall.

New stuff: Deportees

Jonas

Swedish band Deportees from Umeå release their4th studioalbum Oct 19. Check out their great single Islands & Shores. A dark, fateful song with a Interpol & The National kind of vibe.

The vocals from Peder Stenberg gives me a shivering Waterboys-Mike Scott-feeling, simply stunning.

Wapusk…

Magnus

New single from Kathleen Edwards released by Zoë/Rounder Records  today, from her forthcoming album.

The album which will be named ”Voyageur”, will hit the streets next year.

 

The song Wapusk, which is produced by mr Bon Iver, Justin Vernon, her boyfriend,  is perfect for those dark autumn nights that lies ahead.

Hell I’d say it will fit any day of the week. Take a close listen, and you will hear Justin Vernon in the back. Sweet sweet stuff.
