The Lemur lists 10 names to watch out for in 2009!

Posted on April 28th, 2009 by The Lemur

Awesome remix by Justice! OMG it’s so good! I freaking love it! The beat is tight, the slap bass is dope and the chainsaw synths are sick! What can I say? They have done it AGAIN! Is there anything Justice can’t do right? I don’t think so. And if there is… I don’t wanna hear [...]

Avner - Bed För Mig

Posted on April 27th, 2009 by The Lemur

As fuzzy as the picture above… Incredibly elegant and incredibly slanted indie pop at the same time. It could only be a new sprout from Sincerely Yours. Avner’s Bed För Mig is confounding and very short. Speaking of Slanted And Enchanted, he’s yet another who speak-sings the words. Very confusing. The instrumental is like a [...]

Mark Ronson feat. Amy Winehouse - Valerie

Posted on April 27th, 2009 by The Lemur

The one song to give me real springtime feeling right now is Mark Ronson’s genius hookup with Amy Drughouse. Beerhut. Whatever. The cover of indie rock band The Zutons‘ 2006 single Valerie was turned into a timeless song, in that  sense that it would fit just as good 40 years ago as it does now. [...]

Camera Obscura - My Maudlin Career

Posted on April 26th, 2009 by The Lemur

My Maudlin Career is one of my favourite albums of 2009 so far. Camera Obscura has never sounded better! Buy the album! Read why in my review, which I wrote for Consequence Of Sound below! As usual, you can also read it at CoS, of course!

The title song of Camera Obscura’s fourth record called My [...]

Lake Heartbeat

Posted on April 25th, 2009 by The Lemur

One of the more promising Swedish debuts this year is Lake Heartbeat. Through pop music that sparkles with Dan Lissvik’s co-production they have enchanted me in a way I couldn’t imagine. The single mystery can now be bought at itunes and Klicktrack, of course through the one and only Service. You can download Between Dreams, [...]

The Vanish

Posted on April 25th, 2009 by The Lemur

The blogosphere is currently placing its bets on The Vanish, who made their Hypem debut only a week ago, for breakthrough of the year. The NYC duo’s blend of indie’s cornerstones: electro, pop and rock is not revolutionary and their night-out-ly discolicious tunes, of which three you can download below, may not be sensational. But [...]
