Saboteur – Laura K from laura kovic on Vimeo. A few months ago, we released a free digital single on our netlabel EardrumsPop with Laura K, and I am sure many of you have already downloaded it. The single has become one of our most popular releases. I was very excited myself, when the tracks arrived in my inbox, but the single has really grown since I listened to it the first time. As you understand, I am a fan! … →
Town Hall is an indie/folk trio from New York City, who have just released their debut-EP “ Sticky Notes and Paper Scraps“. I fell in love with their sound instantly, after hearing Phoebe Ryan’s wonderful vocals on the stunning opening track “Just Watching My Breath”. The vocal duties are split between her and Stefan Weiner, also on this song, where their vocals swirl around each other. The third member is Jesse Kranzler, whose banjo adds a warmth and a down-to-earth feeling … →

Well, I always promise myself that I won’t do a best of this year, but I end up doing something that looks quite like a best of-list. I listen to A LOT of music in a lot of different genres, and I always find it difficult to range albums from 1-10 or even 1-100, so here are the albums I have enjoyed the most in 2011. Why should there be only one winner, when there are so many great albums … →
Well. so we’re close to Christmas, and every year, the same thing happens. The stress drains my energy-levels, and I go straight down. Those of you who have followed the blog, know about my health problems. It’s been good for a while, but now it’s not that good… I have just moved to a new apartment, which is stressful, the Christmas-stress is here, and stress is really bad for me. To those of you who have sent me emails or … →
photo by pirate_renee Last Friday, I was in the middle of moving to a new house, and even if I had made the weekly “Loved Songs”-playlist, I wasn’t able to post it here. So, here is a 2 hour long “Loved Songs” playlist with loved songs from this week and last week. Since I’m still moving, it’s not my priority to make a text-version of the list this time, – sorry. The playlist includes goodies from the new indiepop-Christmas-supergroup Sunturns … →
