Brand New Start
Unattainable
How To Hang A Warhol
Dont Watch Me Dancing
Bon Iver is to release new EP this January, entitled "Blood Bank" and will consist of four songs, yes, only four songs. He had one of the most unforgettable albums this year so hopefully, "Blood Bank" is set to transfixed us yet again.
Woods
Skinny Love
For Emma
What pushes these songs past mere worship involves cunning collisions of robust rhythm, caressing noise, and heavenly melody, with each element equally crucial. Psychedelic. Alpinism. Modern individualist. School of Seven Bells.
Chain
Connjur
Face to Face on High Places
My Cabal
This was sent to me a couple of months ago but ignored it til now. You know how it is. Im not so much of a fan of "Fascination" but "Quicksand" is such a gem so maybe I should give her a chance. She is predicted by music critics to pave way into the scene for 2009 along with slightly resembling contender, Little Boots.
Fascination
Quicksand ( autoKratz Drags to Riches remix)
Im guilty with this one. I only heard "Cross the Dancefloor" and it entirely blew my mind and left it soaking on the edge of sanity. You should check it out.
Cross The Dancefloor (Designer Drugs Remix)
Come True Tonight (dub mix)
Delegate Your Turn
100% (Treasure Fingers’ B-Live Pemberton Mix)
Charlyn Marie Marshall or Chan is the name under Cat Power. She started performing way back on 1994. Chan disappeared from the musical scene after that, planning to permanently retire from music but during a sleepless night resulting from a nightmare, she started writing songs again. She just released "The Greatest", consisting of her versions of classic songs.
After It All
Metal Heart
The Party
Still In Love
Wonderwall
Wonderwall (Elements of Noise Remix)
Dark End of the Street (James Carr, Aretha Franklin)
Hard Times In New York (Bob Dylan Cover)
This synth-pop trio has an intriguing name since they are a Brooklyn-base band. Blogs have been circulating remix tracks of Au Revoir Simone along with their love for the band. Powered by vintage keyboards, a lockstep beat box, and gorgeous, wide-eyed warbling, the Simones create make-out music for your inner android. What? I think, they mean these remixed tracks are lovely as hell.
Lark (Ruff and Jam mix)
The Way To There (Mark Anthony Tieku remix)
Paris (Aeroplane and Friendly Fires Cover)
Sad Song (Pacific! Remix)
Fallen Snow (Redux)
A Violent Yet Flammable World (Remix from Reverse Migration)
The Chunk of Change was originally put together as a Valentine’s Day present to Angelakos’ girlfriend. After being prompted to send it to others, the production of the brief, sporadic, and explosive recording of the EP followed. It worked towards the development of Angelakos’ signature euphoric and blissfully melancholic sound. Thus, Passion Pit was born.
Cuddle Fuddle
Better Things
Smile Upon Me
Ive Got Your Number

Little Joy is Binki Shapiro, Rodrigo Amarante (Singer/Guitarist of Los Hermanos) and Fabrizio Moretti (drummer of The Strokes). While you're waiting for the The Strokes' new album, listen to this band. Take heed that Little Joy has stripped off affiliations from any band's style, their sound is original.
