I'm in a fantasic mood today!

And in the spirit of my wonderful mood I've decided to put up some downloads of some new tunes for you all to revel in. Also, I've been writing an extremely nostalgic piece on my musical heroes of the past which should also go live today, featuring the whimsical tales of Joni Mitchell, Creedence, Dylan et al...

DELOREAN - STAY CLOSE


This isn't the type of thing i would usual be into, but this has got me convulsing like a teenager at a Skins party. It's electro technicolour credentials embody the mind-bending psychotropic whirlwind of Yeasayers sophomore effort with flashes of MGMT's hippie 'lectro free-for-all, tie dye and LSD topped off with a awe-inspiring mish-mash 80s backbeat that's bought into the modern age with it's Empire of The Sun chatter and lightly whipped techno squeals.

Delorean - Stay Close

THE NATIONAL - BLOODBUZZ OHIO


This National tune is all over the net at the moment. The underground indie-folk pioneers are already heroes in their own rights, bubbling just under the cultural radar of acceptance and popularity where the scensters can rave about them yet keep them close to their chest where the big guns can't get the dirty paws on them.

It's subdued bellow is deep, dangerous and dark, as Matt Berninger croons his was through one of their most accomplished productions thus far.

MUMFORD AND SONS - COUSINS


After setting the record for getting so-fucking-big-so-quickly (and unexpectedly), Mumford have turned their accordions to Vampire Weekends first single of their second effort, 'Cousins'. This jaunty pinch of American indie is transferred from spiky cavorts and razor-sharp string-stokes to an ethereal and harmonious folk hoe-down, jigging and jumping the whole way through, Mumford have done it again...

Mumford And Sons - Cousins

Enjoy!
