Ohbijou - Black Ice
Ohbijou - Wildfires
Chanced upon them a few days ago. I must say they're fanatastic. You'd be surprised as to the number of instruments contributes to the layering in their songs. There's the ukulele, electric piano, harpischord, banjo, glockenspiel, synth, mandolin just to name a few(not really a few though). I wouldn't be surprised if someone told me they thought of using the harp or bagpipe. Some scottish influence there. Been on repeat these few days. Sweet stuff.
Speaking of scottish, I bring you The Twilight Sad.
The Twilight Sad - Cold Days From The Birdhouse
And here again, are their[The Twilight Sad] friends and fellow label mates, Frightened Rabbit.
Frightened Rabbit - Backwards Walk
Scott Hutchinson - Backwards Walk
Frightened Rabbit lead vocalist, Scott Hutchinson doing a solo. I really love this song. Although his guitar is a tad louder then his singing, the melody is lovely all the same.
Handsome Furs - Radio Kalinigrad
Husband and wife duo = Handsome Furs. Dan Boeckner(the husband obviously) is also part of Wolf Parade. His wife, Alexei Perry looks like she's on dope while on the synthesizer. The quality of the video isn't that good, so those who want the song with better quality can go to their Myspace.
Cobra Starship - Good Girls Go Bad (feat. Leighton Meister)
This song's in cos there's Leighton Meister, and I'm an unabashed fan of Gossip Girl. She's apparently signed to Universal Republic. And from it seems, she doesn't have that bad a voice. Sounds suited for the dancey tracks they're priming her upcoming album to be.
