Whitley - More Than Life

Every once in while I think it's important to post an old song that I never stop loving. This time I am showing Whitley's 'More Than Life'. This song is one of my favorite chillout songs and I would be surprised if it didn't become one of yours.

More Than Life

Take a read of the story below, it's an interesting story written by the band's founder.

"When I was five years old I watched two television documentaries that were instrumental in forming the way I think. One show was about Mammoths, and the other was about scientific experiments concerning the human mind. Both documentaries were interesting enough. In the Mammoth documentary there was a time lapse showing a dead Mammoth returning to dust. At the time it only bothered me slightly. Shortly after, the second documentary taught me how the human mind stores memory, language and personality.

A revelation occurred in my mind:
‘If the Mammoth’s brain became dust, and his life was stored in there…then what point is there to life? I won’t remember any of my friends or family when I die. I won’t remember anything that I have learned…I won’t remember anything at all. I may as well not have ever existed.’

I ran to my mother and cried uncontrollably, as if to mourn the death of myself. As a woman who cares for cancer patients and is surrounded by death for most of her life, I thought she could explain it to me. I was horrified to learn that she couldn’t explain what happened when you died. My opinion stayed much the same for 16 years or so, and for a kid, I suppose I devoted an unhealthy amount of time trying to figure out the purpose of my existence. All I could have been and all I would have been was lost in time…it’s not hard to read between the lines."

That's a lot of text, but what I found really interesting about that is, he watched a documentary on Mammoths. One of his albums was called, 'Go Forth, Find Mammoth'. He also mentions he was "lost in time" which is the name of one of his singles. It is a very interesting story that explores how the band met. To check out the rest go to Dew Process' Website (their record label). Some of their other songs are below.

Husky - Dark Sea

This is one awesome, chilled out song. Definately my favourite style of music. I can see this getting many plays in the near future.

Husky is currently based in Melbourne Australia. The band of four is releasing a new album 'Forever So' on the 21st of October 2011. 'Dark Sea' is the band's second single of this year.

The Grates - Sweet Dreams

The music video of The Grates' 'Sweet Dreams' was released just yesterday. It's a pretty sweet video with some crazy coloured blood effects. It's a cool song with a great chorus to match. This is definately The Grates' best song to date.

Recently The Grates have been living in New York while they worked on their third album, 'Secret Rituals'. This album was released earlier this year. The Grates are touring nationally in October and November this year.

New Navy - Zimbabwe

I found this song late last night. It is awesome! New Navy offer a pretty cool, trendy sound. It has a wicked and unique beat that sets the bench mark of the whole song. I can see New Navy going places in the future.

New Navy are a band of four from Sydney, Australia. Zimbabwe debuted at No. 3 on the Independent Music Charts.

Nurses - Trying to Reach You

I found this track a week or two ago. It's got nice sound and a good beat. It's pretty catchy too. Definately worth checking out.

Nurses are a band from the US. The trio's song 'Trying to Reach You' is part of the album 'Dracula' which will be released on iTunes in the coming days.

Hot Chip - I Feel Better

To be honest I had no intentions of blogging about this song. It was my favourite song a while ago but this post is less about the song and more about the video clip. As much as I love the song I just saw the video clip for the first time and boy is it interesting. It isn't just interesting, it's awesome!! I will let you have a look to form your own opinions. Check it out!

Hot Chip are a band from London. This song is from their last album released 'One Life Stand'.

Album of the Week no. 7: Junk of the Heart

The wait is over!!! I am a massive Kooks fan and have been for years. Their latest album 'Junk of the Heart' is out now and it's sounding awesome. Most of the songs are classic Kooks in the best way possible.

You can check out previews of all the albums on songs on iTunes.

If you want to see a full song you can watch:

Junk of the Heart
Saboteur
Is It Me

The Kooks are originally from Brighton in the UK. After a great debut album, 'Inside In / Inside Out' featuring the smash hit Naive, The Kooks began to receive a cult following. Their second album was just as successful, 'Konk' debuted at number 1 on the album charts. They have just released their 3rd album 'Junk of the Heart'.

Strange Talk - Climbing Walls

Strange talk have produced a fantastic hit with 'Climbing Walls'. The music video is definitely one to be seen. I would describe as mesmerising.

Strange Talk are a band from Melbourne, Australia. Climbing Walls was released late August after months of work by the band.

We Barbarians - Headspace EP

I found this EP a couple of weeks ago. The songs are hit after hit of some intense indie rock. I hope you get many hours of listening from this. I know I will.

 

We Barbarians are from Long Beach, California.The trio formed after their previous band, The Colour, broke up.

Chairlift - Amanaemonesia

Found an awesome song today! This song has such a good sound. Chairlift absolutely nailed this one. The song has a catchy chorus and a memorable, or maybe more unique name. Enjoy it!

The trio who make up chairlift united together in Brooklyn. They have yet to see major success yet but who knows what they will become in the future.

Album of the Week no. 6: Mine is Yours

I have been a Cold War Kids fan for years. At the start of this year they released a new album titled 'Mine is Yours'. It's an awesome album definitely worth listening too. Here's a little sampler:

Also I think this remix is pretty awesome so check it out too!

Cold War Kids formed in 2004. If you are fan you must check out this website it's pretty cool: http://coldwarkids.toolprototype.com/

James Blake & Bon Iver - Fall Creek Boys Choir

James Blake is one abstract dude. His songs and music offer something that I think no other artist offers. This song is a combination of him and Bon Iver, who, together, make a mean combo. James Blake's style really shows in this great joint effort by the two.

This song was released today on iTunes but has been on YouTube for a week now. To have a look at the Bon Iver's new album go to one of my older posts.
Check out some of James Blake's other stuff:

Wilhelm Scream

Snakadaktal - Chimera

This song has a pretty slow tempo. It is almost like a chilled out pop song, an odd blend that has been well executed. The chorus is pretty catchy. Enjoy!

The quintet still go to school at Rudolph Steiner School in Melbourne. They formed in early 2010. They have recently won the Triple J Unearthed Competition. Expect to hear more of this band in the future.

You can download and listen to the song here via Triple J. (To download right click and open the link)

Gotye NEW ALBUM Coming Soon

Making Mirrors, Gotye's new album is out soon! August 19 to be exact. After recently writing about 'Somebody That I Used to Know' the song has become a major hit. It is now at Number 1 on the Australian iTunes store!! For those who enjoyed that song you can listen to his whole new album on the Triple J Jukebox. Listen Now!

Gotye is pronounced "Gore-ti-yeah". He was born in Belguim but grew up in Melbourne, Australia. He has released a number of albums. His latest album is due out on the 19th of August 2011.

Washington - Holy Moses

This song by Washington is very peculiar. It offers a very unique sound. Despite how abstract it is I still enjoy it. Washington is one of the few female artists I really enjoy. It's her latest single being released on August 5th of this year. Definately fresh.

Megan Washington was born in Papa New Guinea. She moved to Queensland in Australia at age 11. Later in persuit of a music career she moved to Melbourne as there was a greater demand for artists there. When she moved she had next to no money. Her song 'Clementine' was written on a ukelele as she could not even afford a guitar! Washington's story is encouraging to many wannabe artists. I will put some of her other songs below:


Cement
Sunday Best
Clementine

Boy & Bear - New Album OUT NOW

I am thrilled to announce that Boy & Bears latest album 'Moonfire' is out now! I am big fan of Boy & Bear and they have a big tour scheduled for later this year. It is a thoroughly enjoyable album. Standouts would be the singles 'Feeding Line' and 'Milk and Sticks'. Another song I enjoyed quite a bit is 'Part Time Believer.' Take a listen and enjoy!

Lordy May

Album of the Week no. 5: Rain on the Humming Wire

The Panics released their latest album just over a week ago now. It is an extremely enjoyable album. The standout song, without doubt, is 'Majesty'. The album was written in England and recorded in USA. Both a long way from their hometown of Melbourne.The band have recently announced a tour around Australia. For dates please visit The Panics' Website.

Unfortunately 'Majesty' is the only song of theirs which is on YouTube. So to check out some samples and buy the album visit the album's iTunes page.

As I said at the top of the post The Panics' hometown is Melbourne, Australia. Rain on the Humming Wire was released on July 29, 2011 through Dew Process. Their previous album, Cruel Guards, was very successful. I think this album will be even better than their last!

Black Light Dinner Party - Small Boxes

I recently found this song and I am really enjoying it. It reminds me a lot of a band called Young Love. They have a very similar sound, that's definately a good they as Young Love's album was my favourite album for a very long time.

Black Light Dinner Party are very mysterious. There is barely any information about them on the internet. They are not on iTunes either (the Australian iTunes anyway). Luckily you can download their songs off their Soundcloud account for free. I will post one of their other songs down below for those who want to hear more.

Boy & Bear - Milk & Sticks + NEW ALBUM COMING SOON

This is my second post on Boy & Bear and if you ask me, they deserve it. This is their latest single, released just the other week. I showed this band to a friend and they described them as a better version of Mumford & Sons. I think he described them perfectly. They have a really good sound and this single definitely shows consistency. They also recently announced that a new album is to be released on August 5th. I cannot wait!

 

In 2010 Boy & Bear released an EP, 'With Emperor Antarctica'. This brought them international success. They recieved Rolling Stone’s Artist To Watch of 2010 and Triple J’s Unearthed Artist of the Year. Now with their new album, Moonfire, out August 5, who knows how big they will become.

Scouting For Girls - Love How it Hurts

I have been a fan of Scouting for Girls for a number of years. I found this song from a routine check of whether they have any new songs. This song, recently released makes for some good listening. It is worth listening to and definately worth having on your iPod and also check out their albums. I will put some of their other noteworthy songs at the bottom.

Scouting for girls formed in 2005 in London. They have released two albums. Which includes some other ripper singles! They have reached some pop success in the UK but to everywhere else they are still a pretty indie band.

She's So Lovely
Heartbeat

Sparkadia - Talking Like I'm Falling Down Stairs

The first thing you should know is that this song is not Sparkadia's latest single, but it is my favourite (just ahead of their song 'China'). The first time I saw and heard of Sparkadia was a while ago. They were a supporting act to a band I was seeing. They actually played the same songs as what they have just released. Their song 'Mary' (their latest single) has seen some success putting them back in the limelight. I personally really enjoy this song, but the video does not do it justice. I am sure you will enjoy it anyway.

Sparkadia formed in Sydney in 2004. They have released two albums and an EP. They have toured with many bands as supporting acts including 'Little Red', 'Tegan and Sara' and 'Ben Lee'.

Album of the Week no. 4: Passenger

This isn't such a new album. Maybe a year old... but it is fantastic! It is titled 'Flight of the Crow'. Almost all of Passenger's songs have been featuring other bands that I love. They have created music that is brilliant and easy to listen to. I know that this type of album will get plenty of listening to.




Passenger is the brain child of a 26 year old English man, Mike Rosenberg. Passenger have released a couple albums. They have teamed up with many big name artists in the indie scene.

Gotye - Somebody That I Used to Know

This song was released earlier this month. At first I was hesitant whether I liked it or not. I think that had a lot to do with how unique and abstract this song and video clip is. After listening to the song a few times over the course of the week I have come to the conclusion that I quite like the song. I have also decided that the video makes this song a lot better. It features Kimbra who also featured in one of Miami Horror's singles.

Gotye is pronounced "Gore-ti-yeah". He was born in Belguim but grew up in Melbourne, Australia. He has released a number of albums. His latest is due out on the 19th of August 2011. It will be interesting to see what that album will be like. I will be sure to keep you posted.

#1 Australian Album of All Time - Odyssey No. 5

Powderfinger's Oddysey No. 5 was recently voted on Triple J as the number one Australian album of all time. It featured the hits My Happiness and These Days. I saw them live in their last ever performance in Melbourne and it was fantastic! I must admit that I didn't think this album would be #1 but I sure did want it to be.

Waiting For The Sun
My Happiness
The Metre
Like a Dog
Odyssey #5
Up and Down and Back Again (Live)
My Kinda Scene
These Days
We Should Be Together Now
Thrilloilogy 
Whatever Makes You Happy




Powderfinger are an iconic, popular, Australian, rockband. This and their album Vulture Street are considered to be modern Australian classics. Just last year the broke up after an Australian wide 'Sunset' Tour. Bernard Fanning the lead singer had a short stint as a solo artist releasing his own album. Powderfinger have released many albums over the past two decades and all are worth checking out and certainly worth listening to their singles.

The Kooks - Is It Me NEW SINGLE

It is finally here. The long awaited release of The Kooks brand new single and boy, does it deliver. I have really missed The Kooks the past few years. They have managed to produce a typical Kooks song, that satisfies my hunger for them. I am so happy they are back, now I just have to wait for their new album, recently given the title 'Junk of the Heart', which to be released in September this year.

The Kooks are originally from Brighton in the UK. After a great debut album, 'Inside In / Inside Out' featuring the smash hit Naive, The Kooks began to receive a cult following (from people like me). Their second album was just as successful, 'Konk' debuted at number 1 on the album charts. Now they are doing the finishing touches to their third album due for release on September 12th (13th for the US).

The Kooks have also released a couple other new singles which are linked below:
Saboteur
Junk of the Heart (Happy)

Preorder It Now!

The Republic Tigers - Merrymake it With Me

The Republic Tigers featured in my 'Chillout' compilation. This, Merrymake it With Me is their latest single. It sounds a bit happier than their previous songs I have listened to. Often it takes time for me to appreciate and enjoy a song, in this case I immediately like it. Definately a good sign!

The Republic Tigers are based in Kansas City. They released their first full length album in 2008. Just recently in April they released a brand new EP titled No Man's Land. Hopefully The Republic Tigers will become bigger on the Indie Rock scene.

Phoenix - Everything is Everything

Often Phoenix's old songs are forgotten. Their highly successful album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix was eye catching but so are some of their older songs. This song, Everything is Everything, is very catchy. It is has a bit of an abstract sound but that only makes it more memorable.

Phoenix are a band from Paris. They have released a number of albums and have toured all over the world. Recently they have seen world wide success with their singles 1901 and Lasso.

Of Monsters & Men - Little Talks

I am really enjoying this song. It is very unique, rarely have I seen a band that uses the accordion that I enjoy. It's pretty chilled but is still pretty optimistic, a rare blend that when done well makes a killer combo.

Of Monsters And Men, formed in 2010, are a six-piece indie/folk band from Reykjavík, Iceland. They are the winner of Músiktilraunir 2010 which is Icelandic battle of the bands. Try pronouncing the member's names, I know I can't, Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir, Ragnar Þórhallsson, Brynjar Leifsson, Arnar Rósenkranz Hilmarsson, Kristján Páll Kristjánsson, Árni Guðjónsson.

Album of the Week no. 3: Living on the Edge of Time

This weeks album of the week is Yuksek's Living on the Edge of Time. This album is a stark contrast to the previous album of the week. It is as close to dance music I ever listen to but most of the songs are very enjoyable. On a Train is my favorite song from the album and is definitely noteworthy but another worth looking at is Off the Wall.

Always on the Run
White Keys
Off the Wall
On a Train
Say a Word
To See You Smile
The Edge
Fireworks
Miracle
You Should Talk
Dead or Alive





Yuksek's true name is Pierre, he is originally from France. Living on the Edge of Time was released mid-way through last month. Enjoy

The Wombats - Our Perfect Disease

Just days ago The Wombats released a new video clip for the song Our Perfect Disease. This an exclusive to Triple J, an Australian radio station. In order to view the video clip you need the link, luckily I have it and I am sharing it to you

I saw this song live and the atmosphere was electric! It was a sold out gig. This is The Wombats fifth single from their new album. Their album is definitely must hear if you like high energy, indie pop (an odd combo of words to put together but in this case very true) songs.

The Wombats are from Liverpool and have released two albums, A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation and The Wombats proudly present... This Modern Glitch. Both have been very successful. The second of which was released in April this year. The first single from This Modern Glitch, Tokyo, went number one in many countries across the globe. The Wombats currently touring Europe and will tour England soon.

The Panics - Majesty + NEW ALBUM COMING SOON

Many years ago now The Panics released a song, Don't Fight It and it quickly became one of my favourite songs and one that helped shaped my music taste. Majesty is no different. Within days it has become my favourite song and I am sure it will be your's soon enough too. I can't wait for the album to be released later this month!

The Panics have released three albums so far with their fourth, Rain on the Humming Wire, out on July 29th of this year. They are originally from Perth, Australia. Their album Cruel Guards was #62 in triple j's Hottest 100 Australian Albums of all Time! This competition is still going and the winner will be announced on Sunday the 10th of July.

Chillout Compilation

I am aware that some of these songs are old. Some as many as four years. Despite the age of the songs together they make a powerful combo. This is what I have title as 'Chillout'. It is what it says, it is what I listen to when I want to chillout. I only compiled this a couple of months ago. I was originally not too happy with the sound. But the more I listened to it, the more I enjoyed it. Now it has become my compilation of choice when I want to listen for around 45mins to a 1hr.

A couple of standout songs would have to be The Republic Tigers' 'Building & Mountains'.  Just like the playlist the song has grown on me. It has quickly risen through the ranks to become one of my favourite songs at the moment. The chorus is very catchy...

The other song I would say is a stand out is Radical Face's 'Welcome Home'. This is probably the most popular and well known song on the playlist. It is two years old and has just under five million YouTube hits!! It has a pretty unique sound and boy, does it sound good.

Have a listen to all or some of the songs. Each song is linked to YouTube, so you don't even need to search for it. NO EXCUSES. Enjoy!

Paolo Nutini NEW ALBUM COMING SOON

Don’t be Hasty: Paolo Nutini confirms to STV that new album is on its way

"Scottish singer Paolo Nutini sent festival goers home with a smile on their face on Sunday as he closed the RockNess festival in joyous fashion - and promptly left us with a hint of what’s to come."

Paolo Nutini has indicated in the interview in the link (if you can understand his accent) that his album "can’t be too long away now". This is great news!! I am a major fan and have been for years. I look forward to when the album is finally released. I will be sure to keep all my viewers up to date on this one.

Album of the Week no. 2: Head and the Heart

One week ago today I started the album of the week box. It sits in the top right hand corner of the blog. This is the first post on the album of the week despite being the second album. Last week I blogged about Bon Iver which then featured on my new idea of album of the week. The idea has now devoloped into what will be a weekly thing.

This week it is another self titled album, The Head and the Heart. This was released early this year in January. The Head and the Heart offer an earthy, relaxing voice in an equally relaxing album.

The Head and the Heart were formed in Seattle. Songwriters Jonathan Russell and Josiah met at an open mike night. They formed with the rest of the band. They spent the first half of 2010 touring, they had created a name for themselves. One big enough to attract offers from several record labels. They eventually signed with Sub Pop and released their album.

In 2008 Chimney’s Afire (his last album), equaled the success of its predecessors. Chimney’s Afire debuted at #3 on the ARIA chart, won an ARIA Award and has also achieved Gold sales. His latest album to be released should be a ripper!!

It all started in 2007. It was the beginning of my musical journey. I had just gotten my first iPod. At that stage I knew very little about music. My sister shared with me some of her songs. This being one of the most memorable.
