You will be loved again...
Been looking forward to this for some time (three months at least...) and am now a happy/lucky/fortunate/privileged owner of an A Month of Unrequited Love CD...doubt that any more copies are available (update: apparently I was dead wrong), so you'll have to grab it from iTunes instead (and it's so worth it).

Missing her again...
Once again; thank you J.A. for the heads up. This is one of two new singles from White Town (yes! the same act who recorded the horrible Your Woman). Missing Her Again however is a really excellent pop song (and the second new single She's A Lot Like You is pretty good as well)...

Quite enjoy the new single Up All Night by Dearling Physique. Taken from the duo's forthcoming EP Tracing The Alphabet Part 1.

Shorts...
This will be short...
@Jonas; I know, I know. I owe a post on The Golden Ratio. Coming real soon (if next week is "real soon")...
New single National Runner by [the] caseworker is, is, is absolutely brilliant. Insistingly noisy and catchy exactly as I like it...
There is no justice in this world. The video for Demons, the single by From Sarah, has been viewed exactly 603 times at YouTube. The number of views should have reached 5 digits (at least) by now. Wake up people!
The abovementioned From Sarah is one of the bands who will be performing at next week's Paper Planes Festival. As always familiar matters have top priority, so I won't be able to go. Pretty frustrating as blog favorites The Boombox Hearts is in the line-up as well!
and short it was...
Hot water...
So very old and not really any good anymore (if it ever was)...but since we had not hot water this morning...

SoundCloud...
Every once in a while I spend a little time roaming around SoundCloud with the naïve hope that I will have the great fortune to stumble upon something even remotely interesting. After a slow start I’ve begun to like SoundCloud more and more, as it’s probably the closest we’ll ever (?) come to anything resembling what Myspace used to be; offering some of the same services (especially deep linking and songs tagged by genre), as well as giving you a small chance to unearth something no other blog has discovered. Unfortunately, as often was the case with Myspace, most of the music I find via SoundCloud, when trying my luck, is of such poor quality that it's really not worth anyone’s time. But nonetheless I spent some time yesterday digging deep into the vaults of SoundCloud and this is what little I found...
The Always Unprofessional has close to 10,000 followers and has posted 147 tracks, so this is hardly one of those unknown gems I’m always dreaming of finding. But despite being fairly popular, I don’t think I had ever heard of the band (or rather one-man project) before and since the track Starlet is a cool noisy lo-fi kind of indie pop thing well worth sharing, it - voilà - ends up here.
Before yesterday I didn't know that every single track ever released by Northern Portrait can be streamed at SoundCloud. Now you know as well (unless of course you knew this already and then shame on you for not informing me!).
I'm really not sure what I should think of this cover recorded by Canadian Laurent Aglat. Rather alternative but in a way not without charm...anyone old enough to remember the original?

From Sarah - Demons...
Demons is the only (but hopefully not last) track I've heard so far by Danes From Sarah; and though I do think it sounds a whole lot like Kashmir, it's still unbelievably cool.
