Clor – Love + Pain

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

Now defunct Clor called it a day after their debut album came out. Bit of a shame, really, as I thought it was pretty good! Fun, poppy stuff here with the right mix of guitars and electronic elements coupled with some nice melodies to keep the whole bouncing along rather nicely. Pretty sure they’re from Brixton as well, always nice to know that they’re local!

Watch it below but there’s a higher quality version on YouTube that EMI won’t let me embed.

Yo La Tengo – Autumn Sweater

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

A lovely piece of 90s alternative rock here from Yo La Tengo, a band whose extensive back catalogue I’ve always meant to investigate further.

Perhaps it’s time to do just that…

Alessi’s Ark – Over The Hill

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

Nice bit of folky, dreamy indie pop here from an English band who seem to be getting a fair bit of attention recently. Meant to go and catch her (them?) at Glastonbury but the usual happened and I made it absolutely nowhere near…
