Freedom Fry – Earthquake

February 6, 2012

I stumbled across this new band and instantly liked what i’ve heard. Smooth Synth paired with Guitar over that uptempo Drumbeat. Nice and definitely a groundbreaking song for more like that to come in 2012. Enjoy the video, a little introduction by the band and the song via the soundcloud player.


The Band about this song:

“Earthquake” is the first single to come from French & American band Freedom Fry’s debut LP. It was self-produced by the band in NYC immediately following a 5.8 magnitude earthquake that struck the surrounding area. They never felt it but it inspired the song’s lyrics about a love going awry and shaking up a person’s world.

Available on iTunes on Feb. 14th aka Valentine’s Day 2012.

Beirut – the Rip Tide Album

August 11, 2011

Beiruts new album “Rip Tide” came out last week and while i never mentioned “East Harlem”on this site, the single that came out 2 months prior to the album release, i kept on playing it as one of the nights ends tunes, and have been deeply & cosmologically in sync with the song and its levitating feel, and thats how i pretty much feel about the entire album. Here is another pick from “Rip Tide”. Enjoy the album and its really worth it, one of my absolute faves right now!

Side note: this summer they have toured a few festivals in Europe but never even touched down anywhere remotely close to germany. i wanna see them live and i want to see the entire crowd go “Whoa” when “East Harlem” is dropped in prime time. Deserves it!
