Do you like it? Thanks! Now hit follow, cause you will get a post like this straight to your inbox every Monday if you do! :D
A brilliant thing the internet.

1. PLUTO JONZE - PLASTIC BAG IN A HURRICANE

Another Triple J find! And digging it. Mostly for the awesome sampling work, taking me back to early 2000s with those. Pleasantly surprised to find out that Pluto Jonze is Australian - he had an English vibe going on for me. But this makes me excited, hopefully I can catch live one of these days!

2. LUCY ROSE - MIDDLE OF THE BED

Its an inoffensive song, with a catchy tune. At some parts Lucy Rose reminds me of a mixture of Kimbra/Bertie/Florence - but this could just be me over analysing. Lucy Rose is set to be the one to watch for 2012. And I totally agree. She is pretty freakin adorable and make some smooth tunes. So here's to you Lucy Rose.

3. ALT-J - FITZPLEASURE

So in love with Alt+J right now. Just goes to show that if you dig hard enough you will find gem of a band/songs/artists to fall in love with time after time. I have only heard the stuff from them thats around the inter webs, but I can't find a song I don't like. They are all my cup of tea... a bit of experimental, a bit of rock, and some ethnic sounding vibes. Yes please! And such a cool band name... ""

4. HE-ROBUST - FACEBOOK LIFT
Aaahhh.. just in time for some instrumental fix. And its such a goooooooood one from He-Robust. And its really complimenting the weather we're having today in BNE. Smooth with a nice beat. I love listening to instrumentals like this on a walk or cleaning. It just really calms me down.

5. LIANNE LA HAVAS - NO ROOM FOR DOUBT

Now I have saved the best for last. And what a good one this track is. Lianne La Havas is gorgeous and oh so talented. She has the best skin I have seen on a Youtube screen and her voice is so much better live than it is recorder. I know! In a world where auto tune is acceptable and lip synching is justified, Lianne La Havas is a breath of fresh talent. I am not gonna babble one, cause I just want you to hit play. I have chosen to go for her track No Room For Doubt (even though I am in love with her whole set list) and I've gone for the live recording instead of the EP version. You'll hear why.

Talk to you later people :)

  1. The first few seconds of Plastic bag in a hurricane always remind me of Bittersweet Symphony..haha damn strings.

    Haha and interesting use of the word 'inoffensive'! she reminds me of Laura Marling.
