How Has She Done It?

Another short one: Anna Ternheim - What Have I Done (Live @ Lydverket Studio).
Her voice is like a delicate thunder in the silence of a brand new day...


...and the simplicity of the piano tones - this one is so powerful... remarkabele union of the asceticism and tenderness.

Live Sessions At Studio Pigalle


Generally I am not a fan of the Live performance albums therefore I was not really interested when I got this message:

The Dø will soon embark on a North American tour in July and August in support of their album, Both Ways Open Jaws. To coincide with the tour, the band is releasing the digital-only album Live Sessions At Studio Pigalle on July 10th.


Live Sessions At Studio Pigalle includes live versions of key tracks from Both Ways Open Jaws, as well as two new songs – an original song titled “Mind Police” and an epic nine-minute version of Janelle Monae’s “Tightrope.” 

Ok, two additional tracks from The Dø it is something worth to consider. Epic long track it is something really exciting for me but the rest? It is bit like a hoary old chestnut, really great one but still only great hoary old chestnut... That was my opinion until my mind escaped to the parallel universe when I pressed play on this clip...

So, be carefull...



...or you may fall in love with it like I did... Now I am puzzled...

Where the Kids Are

Blondfire is Bruce and Erica Driscoll, a Brazilian-American brother and sister indie pop duo. And this is the lead track from the group's upcoming album, Win the Game. Raise the volume up and enjoy...


Erica: It kind of wrote itself (...) Where the Kids Are' is basically our little anthem reminding everyone that youth is fleeting. You have to live it up to the fullest and enjoy life before it passes you by.


I keep my finger crossed for the whole album to... write itself! You can get Where the Kids Are free as a consolation in the anticipation for the full album - thanks to the rollingstone.com.
Enjoy!

Boy

Album is on the shelf, multiple times finding its way to the CD player to fill the space with great energy. Marvelous work from Valeska and Sonja.


Soon on the Air.
