You might know Jon Hopkins from his work with Coldplay on Viva la Vida from his mixing of various artists, including Wild Beasts, Nosaj Thing, Imogen Heap, Four Tet, and James Yorkston. As for Natasha Khan and Bat for Lashes – I don’t think I need to say anything else. Jon Hopkins is behind the score for the upcoming film How I Live Now, and today he shared with us a bit of that soundtrack….
The Pixies surprised us once again – not only did they release an awesome new EP (EP-1) which contains four new songs recorded at Rockfield Studios alongside Gil Norton, they also streamed a new song. Indie Cindy, a mellow tempoed tune with edgy riffs and edgy lyrics is accompanied by a rough video, depicting a hook-up gone terribly wrong. The term “Indie Cindy” is actually not original – it was coined by a band called…
After teasing a couple of songs, New York bubblegum indie pop act Cults have shared a full song, much to my excitement: “I Can Hardly Make You Mine” is a rock solid song, a reminder of why we liked them in the first place – but with a twist. After all, we were warned in 2012 that we should expect a ‘more aggressive sound’.
I’m sure if any of us searched the dusty corners of our musical memory banks, we’d find the unmistakable and unforgettable lyrics to James Blunt’s breakout hit ‘You’re Beautiful.’ The catchy track that earned him a #4 spot on Billboards top songs of 2006 list. Well if you’re one of those people whose been living in 2006 for the past seven years, you’ll be excited to know that James Blunt has returned. His new single…

Source Flyleaf with new singer Kristen May The band is going to release their newest EP, Who We Are on 9th July. This features some live songs from the band’s recent tour with the new vocalist, Kristen May (I like Lacey though). Maybe you know that Lacey actually left the band in 2012 with the release of their latest album, it seems that she wants a more family life or something in…
Singers, songwriters, singer songwriters…everywhere you look more seem to appearing. Peter Darling is something of a unique proposition. Not just in that he is a slightly quirky bloke to have a chat with, but that his music is engaging, exciting, classic and complex, whilst being simple and instantaneously captivating. He has just released his second album, Limehouse which marks the first of what should be a prolific rate of work that will see him releasing…
Source The Indie-Math Rock from England, officially announced on their official webpage that they released a new video for the song Bad Habit (you can watch it at the bottom of the page). I wanted to say that is NSFW, but it’s not just like that, because in the video only appears a naked lady that runs in the desert (nothing sexual about it, just nudity and art). The video has…
Vampire Weekend already got plenty of attention for “Diane Young,” the frantic first single from their truly great new album Modern Vampires Of The City, when they burned a couple of Saabs in the lyric video. But now, they’ve released a proper video (though that really depends on your definition of ‘proper’). It starts out with an anarchic dinner party and filling it with indie-universe celebrities in cameo appearances. The big party includes Santigold, Sky…
City and Colour may have emerged onto the music scene as a small side project from Ontario native, Dallas Green, but with three platinum albums and a history of performing alongside alt-rock heavyweights like Neil Young, it’s hard for this “hipstered-out” Clark Kent to stay out of the limelight. Back in 2005, the former Alexisonfire vocalist released a solo LP entitled Sometimes. This was one of the first times Green had truly ever showcased his abilities as…
