Best Coast Boyfriend

This song's getting a few rotations on Triple J and featured on a lot of music blogs. And there's a good reason for that: it's mighty catchy and dreampoppy, reminiscent of a less noisy 80s shoegazer thing combined with a drop of the Cardigans. Combine and picture the following words: teenage yearning, lazy summer, weed & cats, drone. I've an unfortunate gut feeling this is going to be a one-off buzzband, so it' really up to the rest of the album and what they plan to do next; but Boyfriend is currently on a bit of a repeat on my winampz.

Doves – Rise

Was listening to old mixtapes/ sets and was reacquainted with this beautiful number. Lovers of ambient drone, click on! And watch out for the harmonica part.

So long...

F*ck Buttons

Heard these fellas on the radio, found 'em pretty neat and thought I'd write something up. If you're fancying harder, more raw electro, then this might be your cup of tea.

Fuck Buttons is a two-piece experimental group formed in Bristol, England in early 2004 by Andrew Hung and Benjamin John Power.
