Yeah, you can try to label this music with all kinds of fancy names. Bottom line: its neat pop music with a chill vibe to it and remixing Oh Wonder is a simple task, just bc the originals are beautiful beyond words, but there is always a danger in reworking such magnificent original material. Sacrificing brilliant material for the sake of a remix can blind the producer. This is not such a mix so tip of the hat to Delusion. All the ingredients are kept together and a careful arrangement does not disturb the serenity of this tune. We recently posted another even more outstanding tune by Oh Wonder which is even more gracious: “Dazzle“. Definitely our new favourite act. So all you A&Rs constantly scavenging our blog… we once again made your job easier. But please treat Oh Wonder with the respect they deserve !
When legends meet… Love the island feeling. Too bad you don’t find that in the Indies no more. In case you were wondering why i used the cat gif, to me it sounds like they are singing about their undying love for their cats… which only makes the tune cooler :) i guess i need to spend less time on the nets and stop my cat worshipping. Ps great roots riddem.
In anticipation of this Fridays YUM YUM in munich (Nov 7th) Max delivered a new one !
Ever since Max started taking the lead with YUM YUM in Munich he promised to deliver a new Mixtape with every new party. So here it is, a brand new one, 59 minutes packed with plenty of classic YUM YUM material to lighten up the mood and infuse a little sunshine in your life. I guess this is what a wild summers dance sounds like, no matter what continent. This mixtape belongs to the beaches worldwide. You can argue summer sounds like reggae, moombah soul, hip hop, singalongs, some chillout and some singer songwriter is what summer sounds like… and i’d say yes to each and everyone of those styles, but it wouldn’t be YUM YUM if it wasn’t a mix and an elite selection of all those mentioned. So have fun and grab the One Click Free Download.
Here we have a hauntingly beautiful tune.
If it’s associated with contemporary folk-singer/songwriter indie rock and cutting edge house production the name Dinnerdate has to be closely associated with it, since he was one of the very first ones to push that door wide open and actually walk through it… And ever since he started he has been delivering goods of the highest quality. Bow down and give the man some thanks for the many pleasent moments he has created with his unique mixture of sound – and ps in contrast to many of the young ones riding that formula, and are just in for the bandwagon effect, Dinnerdates material differs a lot since it does stand the test of time. Just check his earliest releases and then go back to this tune. The technical component may have improved but the essence of music, namely transporting and setting emotional states, has stayed true since day one. This tune is no different. Still Parade one of the coolest bands to emerge in recent times get a proper remix by a man who knows what to pick and rework. Quality material that you definitely shouldn’t miss out on. Grab it and make sure to follow him on Facebook and Soundcloud.
And while you’re at it, check out the rest of Still Parades other material via their own Soundcloud (Follow them guys, there is a lot to we can expect here). I have been a fan for a few months and their music is nothing short of bliss. One could say they sound a lot like Bon Iver, but that isn’t such a bad thing, is it?
