High Places

I want to point you in the right direction if dream pop is your thing. If a bit of tribal thrown in for fun, is up your alley. They clearly remind me of someone, but I can’t say who, all my memories have just been erased. Gorgeous!

Cyanide for my sweetheart

Cyanide Valentine have got an album out that is not emo as their name suggests, and as they themselves suggest to de-suggest. So no emo I suppose. Though they do have a fallback plan in that.It’s a good album, it’s free so it can’t hurt to download and check out. The vocals do seem amiss at times, and set me contrary, but on Sugar Coma they silently smithereen you away. All in all, a mish-mash of guitar pop and electronica. And, no, not emo I dare say. I smell a trail of potential.download The Three Sides of the Cyanide Valentine (zip)couple i like:

The Reprise

The Yelle picturesque

The regulars will know: I adore and love Yelle in many different ways. The topics (dodgy misogynistic DJs, bra size and girl-on-girl action), this is quite naturally pop music addressed to the ear that knows no shallow horizons. All the same, it’s dance music that you just jump around to. Demonstration via Yelle herself:

Two new remixes for you, but go grab the freshly-dropped album (Pop) if you like her, or go see her fluo coloured live shows.
