All Things Considered… Shut Up And Take My Money!! Caroline Glaser “Money Tree”

This has to be my favourite Singer Songwriter Tune at present! I know she was on the Voice and all, but hey i like these kind of uplifting tunes that make you tap away and have that feel of spring and early summer. Very well done Ms Glaser. Hope to hear many more tunes from you, for many years to come and brimming with as much postive energy as this tune! Wishing you all the best! Ps A Proper Hamok Tune For Spring And Summer.

Indie Music + Hip Hop = Regular Hipster Music. Vampire Weekend + Danny Brown = AWESOME!

The Difference Between Boys And Men

After delivering maybe THE album of last year it’s hard to one up that, but Vampire Weekend manages to deliver this winters first and only anthem that sounds so much like winter. Lovely tunes with the help of uber hipster god Danny Brown & Heems (Das Racist) & Despot. Biggest hipster band in the world + biggest hipster rapper doesn’t necessarily equal ‘biggest hipster tune’ – in this case this is just a beautiful song. And that’s the fine line between kids and men.

Mate Tea Isn’t Enough To Forget The Bitter Cold Around Here? Then Do Yourself A Favour And Listen To This!

You can feel hearts beating, love and meditation from afar. Peruan Maribel Tafur sends all that our way, unified in her new EP “Mysteries Of Love”. My heart gets warmer, i bow to the sun that magically appears and shines, and i let myself drift through distant lands… I cannot send you any sunshine from this cold place, but dear Maribel, i wish to thank you with the happiness that you have created!

This Lumidee Remix Is One More Reason For Me To Wish I Had The Hips Of An African Lady!

An Awesome Remix That Brings Back Memories

Listening to this tune and a few seconds in, memories and images start to emerge. Cheap golden bling, neatly, tight plucked eyebrows, and some gear that’s definitely too tight for your thighs. All a bit ridiculous from todays perspective. And then MNEK’s remix kicks in full force and all i can do is grin. He manages to turn these images into a nice memory, makes me dig out the original tune and once more makes me wish i had the hips of an african lady…

It wasn’t that ridiculous! Maybe a tiny bit, but mostly it used to be fun! And that’s exactly what this song is. FUN…

Here Is What Happens When Your Mad Thoughts Get Turned Into Notes On A Piano

It’s kind of a Funny Story. A movie that uncompromisingly creeps into your heart. It makes you recall just how beautiful this life can be, because it’s so (temptingly) insane. Or because you are nuts yourself. Or simply nuts at times. Or not insane at all, but then life wouldn’t be that beautiful.

And for these (special) moments, where madness and beauty go hand in hand, only one song fits. “Where Is My Mind” by the Pixies. Maxence Cyrin, with his graceful elegance, rendered the song anew on the piano. And yes, in the same manner that his hands tenderly fly across the keys, your thoughts can go spinning in circles, go raving in your mind or aim in all directions at once. Simply mental

Honestly my thoughts rarely stop spinning at 2:47 min. And piano music can run for hours anyway. Seems like someone had the same thought/idea and looped the music. 35 min for your thoughts. Those of you who can’t stop after that, should reconsider that thing about madness ;)
