[Rock/Alternative] Golden Shoulders – Mountain

goldenshoulders

Golden Shoulders is a collective of talented musicians from Nevada City, California, lead by songwriter Adam Kline. Formed in 2001, the group operates with a constantly rotating lineup with the contributors varying from performance to performance, song to song. On the band’s recent full length called Get Reasonable, the music embraces the crescendoing pop opuses of the 70s, toes tapping and heads bobbing by the end of the first track.

I am not sure the exact reason why I love the “Mountain” so much… they seem to be all over the place with many braeks in between the song but yet it comes across very genuine and playful. Perhaps I like the song because at times their pop style sound like a re-incarnation of The Beatles. Whatever it is I cant really put my finger on… what do you think? Give it a couple of second.

[Remix] I'd Rather Dance with You (Redlight)



“I’d Rather Dance with You” is the eighth song from the album Riot on an Empty Street by Kings of Convenience. It was released as a single November 2, 2004.

There is a remix to this song by our friend, the talented Bostonian Producer/DJ Redlight. What we like most about this remix is that Redlight was able to create an electronic remix without taking away the melodies and charming vocals that made the original song so great.

He mention to us that he is looking for some east coast performances and provided us with an exclusive live set (mp3) to show you how serious he is about partying. Check out his myspace or hit him up at theredlightremixes [at] gmail [dot] com

[Fresh] Beach House – Norway

beach-house

Beach House is an American duo from Baltimore, Maryland. Their self-titled debut, Beach House, was named the 16th best album of 2006 by Pitchfork Media. The group have released two albums: 2006’s “Beach House” and 2008’s “Devotion”. A third, “Teen Dream”, will be released in early 2010 and we received a small preview of their album with a track titled “Norway”.

Their music can be described as dream pop and “Norway” is a perfect example to showcase their style. Soothing sounds with relaxing melodies. Extended soft vocals to carry your mind to a higher, much lighter place.

[Looking Back] Carpark North – Human

I stumbled across this song today as I was shuffling through my music collection and I can’t believe its been so long since I had first listen to Human by Carpark North. This song was by far my favorite song for a good while and it is a shame that there has not been any new releases from this Danish band.

The songs marching rhythms and engaging riffs really make you want to tear some shit up. Martin De Thurah, director of the music video did an excellent job capturing the emotions conveyed in the song.
