Aretha Franklin - Mockingbird



A: Aretha Franklin
S: Mockingbird

Every now and then there are those mornings when you wake up and you just know you have to listen to Aretha to get the day started, and most of all, to make it through it.

... if that mockingbird don't sing he's gonna buy me a diamond ring.

Haim - The Wire



A: Haim
S: The Wire
C: The Wire - Single

The Wire is the next chapter in that book called Haim. And if you believe the online buzz the demo version was somehow cuter. Either way, the debut album will be released on September 6 - yay.

... always keep your heart locked tight.

Summer Camp - Fresh



A: Summer Camp
S: Fresh
C: Fresh - Single

Summer camp is a supervised program for children or teenagers conducted during the summer months. Children and adolescents who attend summer camp are known as campers. Hang on, wrong definition.

... dreaming of dances bad memories don’t blink.

Friends - The Way



A: Friends
S: The Way
C: The Way - EP

Heatwave! Since there is no cooling down from the exploding thermometers, I figured all there's left to do is enjoy a couple of fresh beats from Friends, a true hipster's favourite.

... another night is another dream is another day.

Silver Swans - Meet Me Somewhere Nice



A: Silver Swans
S: Meet Me Somewhere Nice
C: Secrets

It is too hot, for basically anything. My wardrobe stopps at twenty-five degree celsius, we are way above that, which means I am dressed in what can only be called functional apparel, if apparel at all.

... do you like to hide inside somebody else’s dreams?

Zinja Hlungwani - Nwa Gezani My Love



A: Zinja Hlungwani
S: Nwa Gezani My Love
C: Nwa Gezani My Love - EP

If you haven't heardNwa Gezani My Love by now it's about time you did. And if you don't, you better don't blame me if your weekend doesn't turn out as funky as it could have been.

... what can I do my baby, to make you mine.

The Naked & Famous - Hearts Like Ours



A: The Naked And Famous
S: Hearts Like Ours
C: In Rolling Waves (out 16.09.13)

Just the other day I found myself wondering what happened to The Naked & Famous, if they got swallowed up by a black hole called one record wonder. Apparently not, as I delightedly found out yesterday.

... we hate to dream.


24 Juli 2013

Rob Feat. Chloe Alper - Juno



A: Rob Feat. Chloe Alper
S: Juno
C: Maniac - Motion Picture Soundtrack

If you like Chromatics, Electric Youth, Desire or any kind of 80s synth power ballad chances are high as kite that you will love this track. I've had it on repeat since I watched Maniac, which wasn't worth watching, really.

... don't make me fall apart again.

23 Juli 2013

I Break Horses - Denial



A: I Break Horses
S: Denial
C: Denial - Single

Put a horse on it and I will like and buy it. Like I like the Discover section on Spotify - although I think the system should realize that Robin Thicke isn't my gusto when I listen to cool cats like I Break Horses.

... fade out, because you are dying.

22 Juli 2013

Moderat - Bad Kingdom



A: Moderat
S: Bad Kingdom
C: Moderat II

Excuse me for being overly romantic about this one, but! I am absolutely in love with this summer feeling, when you walk into an air conditioned room and every pore of your body screams halleluja!

... this is not what you wanted.

20 Juli 2013

Easter - Psychobitch



A: Easter
S: Psychobitch
C: Ur A Great Babe

Here is what I have learned: If you want to have breakfast in bed, you might end up with breadcrumbs up your arse. Not that I wanted to have breakfast in bed.

... I can never go back to that place.


Belle & Sebastian - Your Cover's Blown (Miaoux Miaoux Remix)



A:  Belle & Sebastian
S: Your Cover's Blown (Miaoux Miaoux Remix)
C: The Third Eye Centre

Belle & Sebastian have announced a new album collecting B-sides and rarities from the period between Dear Catastrophe Waitress and Write About Love. I preordered it because I love the artwork. You're free to find your own reason. Here's one.

... your cover's blown, I wanna see you alone.

Breakbot - You Should Know



A: Breakbot
S: You Should Know
C: By Your Side

Enjoy this very tropical breeze called a Friday in July which is brought to you by everybody's favourite frenchy Thibaut Berland aka Breakbot, straight from the marvellous Cote D'Azur. Actually I'm not too sure about that last part.

... it's all about the times that you spend with me.




18 Juli 2013

KT Tunstall - Feel It All



A: KT Tunstall
S: Feel It All
C: Invisible Empire // Crescent Moon

I like the something kind of raw look KT has chosen for this record. And by look I mean sound. Which is, ultimately, as high as you can go as an artist: transforming an audible world into a visual universe.

... the hunter is out and the eagle is hurt.


17 Juli 2013

We Are Knights - Tears



A: We Are Knights
S: Tears
C: Tears - EP

We Are Knights are from France, so you can also called them Nous Sommes Des Chevaliers. Anyway, their EP Tears might just be the secret ingredient you need for a hot hot summer night.

... I want you more than me.


16 Juli 2013

Goldfrapp - Drew



A: Goldfrapp
S: Drew
C: Tales of Us (out 06.09.13)

Well, it only took Goldfrapp four records to return to the beauty they created once upon a time with Felt Mountain. And now that they have, it might be even more magical.

... you, me and more - we bumped and crashed.

15 Juli 2013

Kodaline - All My Friends



A: Kodaline
S: All My Friends

Kodaline's debut album In A Perfect World might not add anything new to planet pop music and come across as camp as christmas, but sometimes it's nice to listen to a record that is a carefree as summer evening.

... it's the memory of our betters that are keeping us on our feet.


14 Juli 2013

Architecture in Helsinki - Escapee



A: Architecture in Helsinki
S: Escapee
C: Moment Bends

Here's my favourite Architecture in Helsinki song that has been sitting on my favourite playliste for forever, yet I never noticed nor guessed that they made a video for it. Here's to catching up!

... temptation's not a word, until we've let it go a stray.

13 Juli 2013

Mutya Keisha Siobhan - Flatline



A: Mutya Keisha Siobhan
S: Flatline
C: Flatline - Single

I don't say this very often but I will say it today: Stop the world I want to get off!

... there oughta be a wave.

12 Juli 2013

FOLKS - We're All Dead



A: FOLKS
S: We're All Dead
C: We're All Dead- Single

Here's a nothing but positive song to finish off your week, containing one of my favourite song lines of all times, which some of you will recognize from a different song, from a different time.

... your're gonna miss me when I'm gone.


11 Juli 2013

Franz Ferdinand - Right Action



A: Franz Ferdinand
S: Right Action
C: Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action (out 23.08.13)

August is a special month. August is the last chance for summer to be summer, August is holidays, fesivals, the 11th of August, and this year, the month that sees the release of the 4th Franz Ferdinand album.
... almost everything could be forgotten.

10 Juli 2013

MS MR - Think Of You



A: MS MR
S: Think Of You
C: Second Hand Rapture

Here's what I have learned, recently: When it comes to thinking of somebody, it takes much more energy to think about them in a negative way than in a positive or even neutral way. Just saying.

... I was addicted to your touch.


09 Juli 2013

Duck Sauce - It's You



A: Duck Sauce
S: It's You
C: It's You - EP

Let's not fool ourselves, Duck Sauce have written their best song already, but they are still quite the masters of success when it comes to making videos. Or maybe it's just too hot outside for me to be critical.

... you got me breaking all the rules.


08 Juli 2013

Daft Punk - Lose Yourself To Dance



A: Daft Punk
S: Lose Yourself To Dance
C: Random Access Memories

I like to like underdogs, or things nobody else likes. You know, Monday mornings, Lana Del Rey's lips, Random Access Memories, and mixing my cereals with cottage cheese.

... you don't get a chance to take a break this often.

07 Juli 2013

L D R U -The Tropics



A: L D R U
S: The Tropics
C: The Tropics - EP

If you follow this video closely, you will find that I am posting it for visual reasons only. Which can be nice, even for a lyric maniac like me, when the temperature is really nothing but tropical - not that I'm complaining.

...


06 Juli 2013

Mens Adventures - BB Vulture



A: Mens Adventures
S: BB Vulture
C: Solitary Trip

Funny enough Mens Adventures' EP is called Solitary Trip. I am having one of my Saturdays in Solitude, which means I'm meeting absolutely nobody. You can call me selfish, I call it lonely rider.

... a million miles from knowing who you are.


05 Juli 2013

London Grammar - Strong



A: London Grammar
S: Strong
C: Strong - EP

After having swayed my hips to their live beats last night, I am in a total MS MR state of mind today. Nevertheless, I think it is time for another chapter in a book called London Grammar.

... excuse me for a while I’m caught in the middle.

04 Juli 2013

Summer Heart - Milano



A: Summer Heart
S: Milano
C: Milano - Single

Here's all summer you will need this season: A bit of sun drenched synthy sound, an equally sun drenched video showing all and nothing, and a little dash of italianita, to sum the whole thing up. Enjoy.

... my love is on a tray.


03 Juli 2013

Vanessa Paradis - Love Song



A: Vanessa Paradis
S: Love Song
C: Love Songs

What can I say, I always feel very frenchy when it is either sunny or I am on holidays - it just so happens that this week both cases are the case. So excuse my French. And Vanessa. And our trip to paradise.

... I don't know nothing about love, you know.

02 Juli 2013

Cloud Control - Dojo Rising



A: Cloud Control
S: Dojo Rising
C: Dojo Rising - Single

If you are suffering from Coulrophobia, commonly known as a fear of clowns, this video won't make you very happy. But you can still listen to the song without the visual backing - on visual mute, basically.

... give it to me easy, give it to me hard. 

01 Juli 2013

Eminem - Stan



A: Eminem
S: Stan
C: The Marshall Mathers EP

I knew that you shouldn't do break up shopping, I didn't know that hung over shopping is a bad idea too. I learned that today. Since the current state of feeling is quite low, everything buyable looks ten times more desirable.

... he likes you more than I do.
