Dreamy


One more song to end the day on a lighter note. Lanterns On The Lake is a dream pop band from Northern England with music that places so perfectly for this rainy weather. 'Lungs Quicken' has easily captured my heart.

Lanterns On The Lake- Lungs Quicken
Lanterns On The Lake-Lonely Sail


In The Waiting Line

Listening to the Netsky essential mix has made this day so much better. If you have not listened to it, I highly recommend it for those who love drum and bass. Really infatuated with this Zero 7 remix he threw in there.

Tuesday Snooze Day


Minizza is a French duo whose tracks are beautifully and electronically mellow. I was unintentionally drawn to their music without the knowledge that they helped in produce Erlend Øye's album Unrest; an album which I am all too familiar with and adore.

Minizza- Je Suis Adore

and since I have Erlend on the mind...here is one of my favorite nostalgic tracks.

Dirt



Just because I am in the mood for some deep house, I will share DirtyBeats. I recommend wearing headphones so you can actually hear the bass (if you are like me and your speakers suck). Mmm yes.

DirtyBeats- Alone In The Jungle (French Fries Remix)






New Radiohead

I know I am probably the millionth person to blog about the new Radiohead album.

Contemplating Office Slumber


I am sleepy as hell today and have a temporary glaze over my eyes. All I want to do is crawl in my bed and sleep a few more much needed hours. Coffee, YOU ARE FAILING ME. Here are some tunes that are currently keeping me sane.



Shigeto- What We Held On To
Blockhead- Grape Nuts and Chalk Sauce
Quantic- Juanita Bonita
Mechanical Me- Beachy Head (Bonobo Mix)

TGIF


Absolutely head over heels in love with this track by Wax Stag (remixed by Bibio). It has been on repeat all day.

Wax Stag-Folk Rock (Bibio Remix)


and here are some videos and other tracks that I highly recommend from both Bibio and Wax Stag:






Bibio-Sugarette
Wax Stag-And How (Bottin's Discursive Verison)
Bibio-Kaini Industries (Originally a track by Boards of Canada)

Kerogen


Don't ask me how I discovered Kerogen, but I am satisfied with my findings. He is an electronic producer from London with a niche for sampling and down tempo tracks. I am lured in because he has a dark trip hop-ish sound.

Guilty Pleasure


I am aware that Ellie Goulding is no one new to the music world, but more recently she has grown on me (note that at first I wasn't a fan). She is extremely talented vocally, I don't think anyone can deny that. I am aware that Goulding is as girly pop as they come, but have an open mind. The UK artist has a very unique and incredibly beautiful voice that in turn draws a number of other artists to remix her tracks.


*Everything about this cover is absolutely amazing. The original Midlake track is a favorite of mine so naturally I became absolutely giddy when I found this version.
