Definitely the flavor of the month for me. Swedish Slagsmålsklubben (abbreviated SMK) having a new unique and rough sound that I absolutely love. Here playing “Sponsored by destiny” live @ Debaser Medis. Enjoy

Dawn Landes cover of Peter, Bjorn and John’s “Young Folks”. Rather folky, but still an interesting listen.

Mystery Jets cave into spoofing 80’s music videos with their “Two doors down”-tune. If you happen to be in an 80’s mood, check out the Ladyhawke video I posted a while back!

Ladyhawke’s “Back of the Van” music video. Just as I imagined it would be :) Gotta love the 80’s

I really love this music video from swedish brother-sister duo Karin Dreijer Andersson and Olaf Drejer, better known as “The Knife”.

Two things that there’s a chance you didn’t already know:

José González’ famous song “Heartbeats” from the Sony Bravia commercial is a cover of The Knife.

Karin Dreijer Andersson had the vocals on Röyksopp’s “What Else is There” from 2005.

I did a rerun of All Songs Considered from October last year when Bob Boilen had Jens Lekman in the studio and I just had to listen again to ‘A postcard to Nina’ when waking up today. Pretty funny story (although I doubt its authenticity…have heard Nina’s moving to New York and San Fran in different live recordings). Nevertheless, amusing…

Fri, 21 Mar 2008 13:11:00 -0400

Not only do I love ‘Golden Cage’ by The Whitest Boy Alive (Not to mention the Fred Falke remix), but their video has a highly entertaining animated typographic story and optical illusions intertwined. Take a four minute break and kick back to Erlend Oye’s wonderful voice.

Have been playing a good amount of Dengue Fever lately after hearing them on both NPR Music: All Songs Considered and Rob da Bank on BBC Radio 1. I just love the 70’s sound of ‘Tiger Phone Card’. Although the live version is good, it’s nothing like getting old skool hippie music in a good recording.

Maps - ‘To the sky’. Fairly good tune on it’s own, but super excited about the M83 remix coming out April 7 on Sonic Cathedral
