#28 Rude boy /reggae/

It's been a while, but I've been covered with shit up till my neck! Writing a thesis appears to be more time and energy consuming than I thought. By the way, one of the DJs I wrote about in #27 won a local DJ contest, so KUDOS! Without boring you and myself to death maybe I should end my limited personal sharing information now.

I'm sure you saw the picture so by no surprise I will post some reggae brasilian and argentinian kindly introduced by my neighbours from A.)

Natiruts - Reggae power

Los Cafres - Tus Ojos 

and... umm yeah a song I came across long time ago and I was dying to post it here Dub Incorporation - Rude Boy

#27 MannsHausen /electro/

Today I was lucky enough to get access to a radio show and I met two really cool german DJs going by the name of MannHausen. They liked my idea of promoting uprising artists and shared some of their tracks with me, so I really hope some of you will give their music a shot.

You can hear "Summer Is Over" on their myspace page and one of their sets on soundcloud. (thumbs up for the set!)

For those of you living in/around Groningen - they play live quite often in clubs around the city... so you know where I'm going with this, right? 

#26 4? /alternative rock/

Since from today I'm starting another page in the blog - the promising artist. Mainly local bands or artists, not very popular outside their countries... or which I think should gain more attention. 

So the pictures from the other page will link you to a post somewhere in the blog. But, lets cut to the chase - the guys from 4? are amazing musicians and very cool people which I had the opportunity to meet in Bulgaria. Frankly said, their music would pwn the ass of many hyped bands nowadays. Lots of potential! Check their songs As I am and Surviving a car crash.

#25 Naked and famous /electro pop, indie rock/

Hey, its gonna be a really quick post, although I had a crazy crazy weekend with a total amount of sleep around 5 or 6 hours. And I do have what to say about life in general, cause I just realized that all I write in the blog are boring daily thingies. Lame. But, anyways I just played The naked and Famous - Punching in a dream, and realized that lately there are lots of bands like that I listen to, so... I suppose the theme will be electro pop/ indie.

Enjoy the rest songs as well!

Daily Bread - Shot the picture (I'm gonna speak about them soonish, saw them live in Groningen. Amazing sexy garage rock or whatever they define themselves).

Passion pit - Sleepy head (amazing!). I think I might have productive a Sunday night.

#24 Australian music

I discovered a really cool indie band recently. Apparently, they are from Australia. I also lived with an awesome australian girl. So... I guess this post will be dedicated to the australian music scene, which gave us really really good songs.

The indie band I mentioned in the beginnig is Last Dinosaurs - Time & Place. The video is quite fascinating as well. Oh, seriously I can't come up with anything to write today, I'm completely stuck, I feel that everything I write is just some boring blablabla. So I will just put the other bands I really like.

The presets - If I know you

Little red - Coca Cola

There are lots of bands which I can mention, but the one I really can't miss is Silverchair (awesome live!).

Australia rocks! And now.. I have to pick up my brain because passing out last night was...oh fuck it.

#23 Zodiac /post-rock/

Yeah, one of those nights... I've been thinking for a while to do another post-rock (#1) post.. but actually I have this weird observation that people in general do not like that music much. But.. if you give it a chance, at least for me, is pretty moving. That genre has been one of my main music preferences for quite some years. So tonight my mood is perfect for some post-rock.

I will definitely begin with some songs of the band which probably helped me the most to fall in love with that type of music - God is an astronaut (catchy name, huh). I'm not gonna post all of my favourite songs, cuz they are quite a lot.

God is an astronaut - A moment of stillness
God is an astronaut - All is violent, all is bright
God is an astronaut - Zodiac 
God is an astronaut - Forever lost


Another quite extraordinary name - If these trees could talk - whats in the ground belongs to you

If you enjoyed the past 5 songs, I guess I will advice you to do what I am about to do now - watch this set of a band called Tortoise (live in Werchter). Even if just to expand your musical culture a bit, cause those guys are something you do not see every day. Godspeed!

#22 This could be real /dubstep/

So, whats up? I didn't party as much as expected last weekend, but at least I nailed my presentation today. It's been productive time span since the last time i wrote. Anyway, new month is coming up and I kinda doubt what should be the starting post... well now I'm listening to the hyped dub step, so... why not? I read somewhere that dub step was the genre which gained most popularity during 2010. I like it.

So... from the things I came across the one I chose to post today are

Sub Focus - This Could Be Real (Joker Rmx)

Bar 9 - Midnight

Modestep - Feel Good





Okay, I hope you enjoy it and I think I definitely need to search more dubstep tracks
