So Mondays can be pretty dull and depressing, and if your unlucky like me a complete nightmare before 9am. So here’s a fun filled little dance pop track to cheer us all up and look forward to Friday. Mausi, pronounced mousey, are a quarter based in Newcastle. Fronted by siblings Thomas and Daisey Finetto originally from Milan, may account for the European party feel of … Continue reading My Friend Has a Swimming Pool
Quick music Monday today cause I’m busy enjoying my bank holiday. I discovered Plastic Mermaids a few weeks ago in the blogosphere. Last week they added a couple of new tracks to soundcloud so I thought I’d share one with you. These five guys hail from the Isle of Wight and have attracted quite a bit if attention with their previous tracks, Polaroids and Dromtrop. … Continue reading Window Display
It’s a bank holiday Monday and the sun is out, I’m sorry if you’re stuck at work. Time for a little change of pace for today’s new music Monday. I heard this track on Radio 1’s review show during the week and it instantly lifted my mood. Brilliantly summer filled track. I’m not usually one for dance music but this mysterious producer Zhu, no one … Continue reading Faded
Layla formerly known as Jose Vanders, has been around for a little while. Her previous tracks, Oh My Love, Tease, are sweet melody filled loveliness leaving you with a warm feeling inside. I’m not complaining, I really liked them. Her new track Smokestacks really grabbed my attention though with as it has a very different feel. It begins slowly with simple piano but as soon … Continue reading Smokestacks
I discovered Natalie Holmes online this week. She is a singer songwriter with a wonderfully delicate voice which fits perfectly over piano and acoustic guitar. This track displays her talents with the intimate lyrics and beautiful combination of acoustics. Any girl that cites Bon Iver as an influence is one to watch in my book. The 20yr old from Bristol has released two EP’s already, … Continue reading Child
Ms Day is my new girl crush. I found this track online and instantly fell in love. It is released on limited edition 7” on 7th April or you can get it on soundcloud. Her voice is enchanting and the emotion in this track captures you. There is an air of melancholy in the chorus ‘can we go back to the love we had’ that … Continue reading 1965
A late one, but its been a busy day folks. They say you learn something new everyday and maybe you’ll get your fix from today’s new music Monday. I love Cosmo Sheldrake’s new track The Moss. It opens with the line ‘legend has it that the moss grows on the north side of the tree’ and continues to provide a series of random facts in … Continue reading The Moss
I heard Elli Ingram a couple weeks ago when her new track All Caught Up was Zane Lowe’s hottest record. I couldn’t find a decent version of it to feature on here so you’ll just have to wait till her new EP comes out mid March. She released her debut EP last summer after coming to the attention of many with her cover of Kendrick … Continue reading Sober
Josef Salvat is Australian born singer/songwriter. He burst onto the blogosphere last year and kept popping up on my screen but I never got round to putting a post together. He’s now working on his debut album so I thought it was about time a shared. I’ve found out very little about this man. I guess he creates pop music but pop music for adults … Continue reading Every Night
I heard this song before Christmas after they performed at the American Music Awards, it instantly got me. I got lost in all the Christmas and Australia fun though and didn’t get a chance to share it with you all. The band are a twosome from New York formed when the pair met while studying music at NYU. They had their big break after their … Continue reading Say something
