Bubblegum power pop isn’t exactly everybody’s favorite cup of tea, but you’ve gotta admit there’s something terribly fun about bubbly ballads, catchy loops and … The Bicycles. The way too short or way too long “What A Fool,” whichever of the two you believe, is a perfect example of the band’s carefree music. The video’s geeky technique is well damn hilarious, too! Off The Bicycles’ last year sophomore release “Oh No, It’s Love.”
I simply adored Victoria Bergsman’s latest single Watch The Waves. The oriental vibe, coupled with her almost effortlessly serene vocals made it simply dazzling. Her sophomore solo release, “East of Eden,” is just weeks away, so I thought you guys would like another listen to Victoria’s beautiful symphonic pop and top notch production. Here’s “My Boys” a very cool spin-off to Animal Collective’s wicked “My Girls.” The tempo is slowed down a few notches, leaving…
A few months ago, I expressed my enthusiasm (CHECK OUT THE TRAILER! CAPS FAIL) regarding the upcoming fantasy flick “Where The Wild Things Are,” a film adaptation of Maurice Sandak’s popular children book. Today, we get out first taste of the furry, fantastic, mind blowing and, of course, wild adventures that lie ahead once with the release of the first song of the soundtrack – “All Is Love.” The song was written and played by…
Pocketbooks is lately, probably the most appreciated British indie pop band, if we were to consider the different reviews and critical opinions it has received from various music websites and magazines (you’ll read about it in the interview). They come from London, they have released a 7″, an EP, a single and have recently released their debut album – “Flight Paths”. The album is available HERE for purchase! If you want to read about great…
tada tátà is a special musical project from Sweden, more exactly from Umeå/Falun. They represent a set of electro pop and folk, with songs mostly played on guitars and Ukulele. Listen to it and you’ll notice that it’s like music for toys. I know, it sounds a bit childish and blurry – it’s probably just their toy piano and glockenspiel toying with my mind. They sound, in fact, just great and their lyrics and use…
I have recently interviewed a new indie pop/experimental band from Amsterdam called “We’ll Make it Right”. You can read the full interview HERE ! If you like what you’ve read and if you have enjoyed the song that was available for listening and download, then you’ll probably want to give the entire album a second listen. Tim, one of the members of the band, decided to give you all a special surprise – you can…
This indie pop/experimental band comes from Amsterdam, the Netherlands. They’re the newest band you probably know and have already released an album, that is available at the following websites for purchase: www.bol.com, www.platomania.nl, www.velvetmusic.nl and www.plato.nl. Because we wanted to get to know them a little better, we had a talk with one of the members of the band, Dean. Read the interview with Dean Tippet and find out exactly what the Dutch have to…
“Astronauts of Antiquity” is an electro/neo-soul indie band from New York. The band has two main members: India and B. Rhyan, but they also work with 4 other musicians, to get the most out of the instruments they want to play and to have the complex and worthy live performances their songs would suggest they have. They have released an album in 2005 – AOA 1 – and have released their second work in February…
Ya know all those rumors back in the day that pop music (mainly rock) had satanic messages in it, and that these supposed messages would destroy this country’s youth? Well as ridiculous as those claims were, a recent one made about Lady GaGa makes those seem as plausible as gravity. Apparently a blog calling itself The Vigilant Citizen argues that GaGa is nothing more than an an “Illuminati puppet.” *Sigh* Yes, this newest rumor, claim,…
ZME: Let’s get to know you guys a little better. Please describe yourselves with no longer than 10 words each. What words best represent your characters, your way of life etc.? Sune Sølund – opinionated know-it-all kind a guy with flair for morel mushrooms Thorben Seierø Jensen – selfcentered, egotistic and insecure hypocondriac with a crush on B. Spears Kristine Permild – anthropologist with lots of undetermined phobias Laurids Smedegaard – the undisputed dog lover…
