[Fresh] I Blame Coco feat Robyn – Caesar (Miike Snow Remix)

i blame coco1 [Fresh] I Blame Coco feat Robyn   Caesar (Miike Snow Remix)

While I am guilty of posting pretty much anything that has Miike Snow name on it, this remix deserves more attention. The debut single from british Electropop band I Blame Coco (containing Sting’s daughter Coco Summer) has been taken to a whole new level by these Swedes. I have also included Diplo’s more dancier version below.

Their debut Album “The Constant” is will be released on October 4, 2010.

[Indie/British] Spring Offensive – Every Coin

View All Photos SPRING OFFENSIVE [Indie/British] Spring Offensive – Every Coin
I absolutely love bands with singers that sing with their accents. To me, that makes the band fall into a category of musicians who embrace themselves and their true voices. The Spring Offensive DEFINITELY fall into that category. This indie-rock band, hailing from Oxford, applies their own unique take to music formulas and creates a desperate, grasping beat that, with beautiful drum work and emotional vocals, builds to a wall of choral melody in “Every Coin”. Definitely check out the rest of “Pull Us Apart” and while you’re at it, prepare for their FREE mini-release available Aug. 20th.

[British Indie Pop] King Charles – Love Lust

King Charles [British Indie Pop] King Charles – Love Lust
Within the first ten seconds of King Charles’ “Love Lust”, it was stuck in my head. To be honest, I’d never even heard of him until given this assignment, but he’s definitely a musical gem to be found. Not much can really be ascertained about the electro-rock wonder with the exception that he appeared one day in the East London music scene, and that he’s been well received at his few live appearances in the UK. Definitely be on the lookout for King Charles to blow up because his music, like love, will set your soul on fire…

King Charles is currently working on his debut album which is due for release later in 2010.

The Music Ninja along with our good friends from Inyourspeakers will be getting you high with a powerful dose of fresh music (almost) everyday. You know, they say time flies when you’re having fun. We must really love sharing sweet new tracks with you then, because it’s already time for yet another Daily Dose of New Music.

bassjackers11 [Mp3 Injections] Daily Dose of New Music

We thought we’d kick things off with a bang with this brand new banger from Bassjackers and Ralvero titled “Bang Like A.” As those of you with minds in the gutter have already correctly guessed, the track sports some suggestive innuendo — just what the doctor ordered to get your Tuesday night clubbing going strong.

Just a few months ahead of his long-anticipated fourth record, Swanlights, Antony Hegarty and his band of Johnsons are releasing an EP titled Thank You For Your Love, from which we’ve pulled this rousing, anthemic titular track to share with you. The EP also includes Antony’s takes on a few Dylan and Lennon tracks (the latter of which features William Basinski, of The Disintegration Loops fame), as well as a bonus track from 2009′s The Crying Light.

lissie 580 [Mp3 Injections] Daily Dose of New Music

For what few of our readers aren’t already aware of Lissie, a quick look-see around the internet will likely find the country-tinged singer-songwriter vixen with a cigarette between her lips and a clear don’t-give-a-fuck attitude in her eyes. Stripping the usual scratchy vocals for something closer to Neko Case, this new track off her imminent new LP Catching a Tiger takes the heartfelt route a bit more than we’re used to, but not more at all more than we like. Check it out for yourself below.

While Röyksopp fans were disappointed last year by the delay of Senior, the reportedly darker, “senile sibling” of 2009′s Junior, it looks like that wait is finally over. The first taste we’re getting for what we’re likely to get on the new album, slated for release Sept 13th, is this track, “This Space.” While it doesn’t look like this particular cut is a part of the forthcoming album’s official tracklist, it’s definitely a track fans of the Norwegian duo will want to hear.

Vampire+Weekend+24867118 [Mp3 Injections] Daily Dose of New Music

Last for today, but certainly not least, is a new remix of Vampire Weekend‘s “White Sky,” this time from remix artist/composer Cécile. This is the second major remix we’ve heard on this track (the first being from Basement Jaxx), and this take spreads the song out into a light, bubbly piece of ambient chillwave. Fans of Vampire Weekend will surely want to check this one out.

Last but not least California rapper P (The Letter P) teamed up with Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic to record a down to earth soft track with a very chill vibe.

[Album] Arcade Fire: The Suburbs

c1 [Album] Arcade Fire: The Suburbs

You can call the overwhelming earnestness of The Suburbs, the latest Arcade Fire effort, something of a return to form, but I won’t. Clearly, there is retrospect and nostalgia that colors this album, but as Régine put it on “In the Backseat”, “I’ve been learning to drive. My whole life, I’ve been learning.” It’d be great if we could all just be passengers on the journey of our lives, watching life as it unfolds, but eventually we have to grow up and take the wheel. The Suburbs is a new page, but if you must, you can think of it as a maturation from Funeral. It can’t match the excitement of either of the first two records, but really, isn’t that what growing up is all about? Read full review at inyourspeakers.com

[Album Review] Best Coast: Crazy for You

Crazy for You doesn’t feel forced or contrived, but more genuinely lackadaisical. The Best Coast album is a nice blend of shoegazey sixties girl pop more akin to Vivian Girls or Dum Dum Girls than, say, She & Him. Frontwoman Bethany Cosentino has damn near perfect old-school rocker pipes with sneer to match, but the tracks tend to run together. Best Coast Crazy for You review [Album Review] Best Coast: Crazy for YouAll of the tracks on the first side are enjoyable in their own right, they’re just somewhat indistinguishable from one another. I do really love the stand-out songs, but they’re all stuck at the end of the disc. On the whole, it’s an enjoyable summertime listen, but be forewarned, these tracks are growers. There’s no real wow factor, even though there easily could have been. This girl is more the type to gradually wear down your resistance and win you over rather than sweep you off your feet. Give the album the chance to do so. Read full review at inyourspeakers.com

[Fresh] Mouth’s Cradle – Summertime

mouths cradle front porch [Fresh] Mouths Cradle   Summertime

Just like my morning coffee, Mouth’s Cradle from have created a special blend of music that is not only incredibly satisfying to consume, but leaves quite a nice aftertaste. Hailing from Syracuse University, this upcoming college duo are aiming to become leaders in the new class of college artists who create buzz for themselves while sitting through lectures. Do we believe in the buzz? Absolutely. Combining the right amount of pop and hip/hop influences, their future is as bright as their latest song ‘Summertime’. From all the sunny feel good anthems we listened the last couple of months, Summertime is by far the greatest. Sampling Train’s Hey Soul Sister, Mouth’s Cradle leaves us wanting more.

Below is also Front Porch, Back Porch from their EP titled ‘The Next Big Thing‘ released in april and featured on the front pages of iTunes “New and Noteworthy” and “Pop” sections. Enjoy
