Vin Sol & Charles McCloud

January 29th, 2011

Vin Sol and Charles McCloud sent over some pretty awesome remixes of some Deee-Lite jams. Giving the whole disco vibe to some already funky hits is just what a gay needs in a faux summer in January in SoCal. Vin has and will remain being one of my favorite DJ’s in San Francisco. Not only [...]

Creep

Creep

January 26th, 2011

I have a feeling Witch House is going to be really big 2010 bleh bleh bleh. Whatever. Creep is Lauren Flax and Lauren Dillard’s new project. The video for their debut single “Days” is directed by the Fischer half of Fischerspooner and features The xx’s Romy Madley-Croft on vocals.

Hunx and His Punx

Hunx and His Punx

January 25th, 2011

Woah, Hunx’s stereo might be bigger. Hunx and His Punx is set to release their second album (well first proper, as the debut was a collection of 7″ singles) on March 29th. And we can pretty much say judging from “Lover’s Lane” we can expect more of the Hunx signature Shangri-Las meet John Waters sound. [...]

Niteflights

Niteflights

January 22nd, 2011

Niteflights is pure indie pop magic. In just three minutes, “Here Comes Tomorrow” establishes a fresh clean sound for a new year. The vocals start off with a softness akin to Paul Simon but emotion breaks through to something a bit more raw. The most exciting part? Niteflights deliver the opposite of the washed out [...]

Ghoul

Ghoul

January 21st, 2011

Ghoul is one of my favourite bands. Awesome, strange, quirky, and fantastic music and each song makes me wonder about the creative process. Vocalist Ivan Vizintin has such a nice tone (definite Antony Hegarty vibe) and his voice sounds even better live. Ghoul have a new mini album ‘Dunks’ which has just been released on [...]

Mitzi

January 19th, 2011

Before we get called out for nepotism, Mitzi bandmember Jad Lee blogs frequently for Bigstereo. We’re not posting Mitzi because Jad posts here but rather because this is a super solid release. If Mitzi sucked we would’ve told Jad to jog on. But that’s not the case. Let your ears decide. Mitzi is made up [...]

Kinda saw that one coming. Replace Edward Scissorhands with Woodsy Cat People and you kinda get the idea… a perfect balance between absolutely beautiful and Troll 2.

Pompeya

Pompeya

January 17th, 2011

Pompeya’s video is kinda wild… made up of video from their parents’ youth, it is like a time capsule of Western culture being embraced by Soviet youth ready for change. Proof that the 80′s were as dorky in the USSR as they were in the USA. But Pompeya’s music is the real gem. The West [...]

Walter Meego

Walter Meego

January 14th, 2011

Walter Meego. sigh. Wondervalley might be confused as a bit of a departure from their earlier work, but it’s all still there… synth drenched pop songs. The music is more mature now; less grandiose and a bit more introspective. Wondervalley might be the fermentation of all the ups and downs — major label gain and [...]

ANR

ANR

January 11th, 2011

I think the last time we posted about ANR they were going by Awesome New Republic and perhaps sounded a bit different… five years ago, yeah? SO. New name, new sound, new band? I guess. Winner tracks here… classic pop rock feeling here; hooks and all. Two album tracks to get the mouth wet for [...]

Pnau + Jump Jump Dance Dance

Pnau + Jump Jump Dance Dance

January 10th, 2011

Nick Littlemore must be taking a break with Empire of the Sun because Pnau is back! First single is the “The Truth”, and the truth is I just want to hear the orginal — love remixes some of the time but can’t form any conclusions. Jump Jump Dance Dance do a lovely disco number. No [...]

Oh Yelle, how we missed you so. It seems so long since 2006 when “Short Dick Cuizi” was nothing more than a MySpace banger (er, some of these comments are lolz). Freak — this is the disco I want on a safari… elephants and zebras and Tepr and GrandMarnier causing a stampede. And a natural [...]

Super Melody

January 8th, 2011

We posted a video of new friend Super Melody for “Champage Glass” back in November but now we got the real deal and are giving out “I Want Your Blood” which is definitely one of my favorite tracks from his album Destination Unknown. The album is a complete hodge podge and is very hard to [...]
