OFFICIAL VID: Class Actress - Bienvenue
iheartmoosiq:
Bienvenue is the latest official video to come from Brooklyn artist Class Actress off her album Rapprocher. It’s a very decent indie pop song that grows on subsequent listens. What’s up with the French thing?
Amazing.

OFFICIAL VID: Real Estate - Easy
iheartmoosiq:
For all the sinister, dark, twisted, psychedelic and trippy videos that are all so popular these days, we seem to be lacking some tongue in cheek, more comedic ones. Real Estate to the rescue with the comedic video for the single Easy, off of their sophomore album Days. The Jersey rockers debuted the video on Funny or Die.

rianvdm:
I can’t quite put my finger on why I find this random chat so great. Maybe it’s because it shows the power of Twitter to reduce degrees of separation to zero in a matter of minutes. Maybe it’s the fact that I can sit in Cape Town, South Africa, and listen to two people who I admire a great deal have a respectful disagreement in real time. Or maybe it’s because I keep thinking about the...

BOSCO - PACER
Brittany Bosco is a visionary Atlantan musician who’s look is not coincidently Grace Slick-esque, so thus appropriately she’s grabbed her synth pop sound by the balls and sneers in its face. And despite its glamorization of cig smoking (bleh), this beautiful video directed by supadope for Boombox Films sexes up the track just enough.

Wye Oak Xmas
iheartmoosiq:
Like I said, so many covers and remixes these days. Wye Oak covered Brenda Lee’s Christmas Will Be Just Another Lonely Day. Jenn Wassner totally fits this and gives a wonderful performance live. Wye Oak has been doing very well lately, and well deserved.

Listen: “Born to Lose” – Sleigh Bells →
The Sleigh Bells just released the first single off their upcoming album Reign of Terror, slated to be released on February 14th (how appropriate). Saturated by a double-drumming ass-kicking beat, distorted guitars that aren’t shy of feedback, and Alexis Krauss’ breathy, sexy voice, this track certainly a exciting preview of what’s to come.

2:54
iheartmoosiq:
Been hearing the band name 2:54. Finally got around to checking them out. London indie rock duo 2:54 is very shoegaze waily and grungy. The shoegaze side of it reminds me a little of Silversun Pickups. Totally digging these few trax below that I’ve listened to so far. I can see what some of the buzz is about. And what’s with all the forest music videos lately? I swear music...

Meet the Band
Recently my charming, sexy, but at times socially awkward girlfriend asked me a question:
What do you say to bands when you get to meet them? She’s got the “Hi, I’m a big fan and love your music” thing down, and she can bat her eyes and be all cute like. But then what? How do you hold a conversation with adorable band members through all those butterflies without making...

iheartmoosiq:
*gasp* Wow there’s some good stuff getting floated out after the slow past day or two! Yep, Florence and the Machine covered Drake’s ever popular Take Care on BBC Radio 1! Let’s not forget Take Care also features Rihanna AND it heavily samples from Jamie XX’s work with the late Gil…

The Belle Brigade // The Fillmore San Francisco
Ok, really? As if the Belle Brigade’s self-titled debut didn’t blow me away enough (subsequently becoming the soundtrack for my morning bike-ride to work for most of the spring and summer), their energetic, passionate, and airtight live performance only solidified my assertion that these guys aren’t just a flash in the [1970s] folk-rock pan. I have a feeling they won’t be...

Austra 11/12 @ GAMH
“I wanted to make classical music with really fucked up, distorted crazy shit on there.”
While Austra’s Feel It Break doesn’t quite sound like Rachmaninoff meets Death From Above 1979 (perhaps more along the lines of Schoenberg meets Nine Inch Nails), it certainly is a testament to the well-honed musicality of lead singer Katie Stelmanis. She might not have an affinity towards major...
OFFICAL VID: Pictureplane - Black Nails
iheartmoosiq:
From Travis Egedy, the man who coined the witch house genre name, here’s the video for Black Nails. The track is all sorts of electric goodness. I just found out yesterday that he’s coming to town and bringing his dark synth pop to Popscene at the end of December. Woohoo! I’m so there, if I’m in town able to. SO there. Now I’m craving more Pictureplane. Going to hafta listen to a...

Treasure Island Preview #2
#2 Warpaint
Now i’ve got you in the undertow. / Why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
Ah ah ah you better learn your lesson yourself. Nobody ever has to find out what’s in my mind tonight.
Suddenly I felt uncomfortable – like I had overheard the sinister, whispered confessions of three unapologetic, facetiously guilty young girls. Should I tell someone, or try to forget...

Treasure Island Preview
As a new San Franciscan, one of the features of the itty bitty city by the water I’m most enjoying is its constant stream of outdoor events. There’s always an event I’m either going to or looking forward to - which pretty much sums up my weekend and is making me giddy for the first half of October.
This weekend has me spending some quality time at Golden Gate park for Hardly...
