Smile Smile - Beg You To Stay
A love song set to a darkly humourous video. I like their blend of pop which mixes melodramatic riffs with complementing vocals.

Fink - Pretty Little Thing
Lush, liquid and smooth. Down-tempo beat that feels slinky, like a little black dress. Absolutely gorgeous.

Two Door Cinema Club - What You Know
Pop ditties going on about not being alone. Simple and catchy.

Kisses - Bermuda
This is what users had to say of the song.

sounhip - "So intoxicating it should be illegal"
injuredguitar - "he's got the bass rhythm of Cut Copy, the poppyness of the Smiths, and the voice of Ed Droste. perfect"

Amazing song with a very slight droll and feels utterly laidback. Let's drown ourselves in this stunning song right now.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

- T.S. Eliot


I find it fascinating how some people can go to lengths to challenge themselves, yet some of us are content just being in our comfort zone. I am guilty of the latter. Do I want to go out and experience everything the world has to offer, what life really is or continue leading this prosaic existence of mine?


The Raveonettes - Heart of Stone
I love the guitars here, so very reminiscent of old rock bands. But damn do the lyrics ooze heart wrenching pain and if I may use this word, emo.

MGMT - Flash Delirium
Sneak peak into their new album "Congratulations". Fresh and appealing, clearly not reusing the same recipe (electronic stuff) that gained them mainstream adulation. Kudos to trying out new stuff, and I must say I kinda like this song - it grows on you. Such random fun with witty lyrics that mindfucks you. Kinda.

Smile Smile - Tempo Bledsoe
Dandy and fine love song that tickles and charms you all at once. They were actually together when they first formed the band and wrote their first songs. However, they broke up just as people started noticing them, to which they channeled this experience as inspiration for their album "Truth on Tape".

Beach House - Lover of Mine
Nothing better than Beach House for a lovely rainy morning. Some say they don't change their style of dreampop, but heck, if one can do what they do really really well, why change? This is their third album and I'm still loving everything. Most.

In a wide open field we know we can feel
Awake and unreal, off to nowhere
Off to nowhere

Perfect imagery. Dandelions floating through the grass field, warm sunlight filtering through big oak trees, casting a golden hue on the dandelions which make them seem like fireflies in the daylight. The fleeting shimmer, mesmerising; that gentle breeze, caressing your face.
