Here We Go Magic

Here we go again...another great tune heard while shopping for vintage duds.  Although, unlike my previous post about Active Child, this Here We Go Magic track was entirely new to me until the nice gent at the front register wrote it down upon request.  Now, it's on repeat in my cozy Hackney flat as the leaves fall from the trees outside.  As Winter approaches, wherever you are, I hope this track makes its way into your routine.  It's a gem.

Niva

In my previous post, I mentioned my all consuming affection for summer Hip-Hop jams.  Well, allow me to backtrack ever so slightly.

On those cloudless blue sky days of June, July, August and September, my mind often drifts to a more tranquil place.  Accompanying me on my way are blissed-out songs from the likes of Million Young, Neon Indian, Beach House, Wild Nothing, Toro y Moi and other breezy electro-pop bands.  Now included in that list is Niva, a solo artist out of Sweden, who's music I find quite uplifting.

As your imagination wanders, be sure to take Niva along for the ride.  Here are two tracks off his soon to be released Feverish Dreams EP.  Your sounds of summer just got better.

Niva - Ghost In My Head
Niva - The Boy from the Sun

The Drums

God I love songs about love.

Is the best part of heartbreak & loving someone being able to listen to those songs that just hit home so hard? Well if you say yes The Drums out of Brooklyn NYC dropped their full-length release today and lets just say I'm feelin it!

It would be pretty annoying of me to post 90% of the album, so I narrowed it down to my sneak peek pick which is Forever and Ever Amen. And by typical 'Your New Neighbor' style, below is a remix by Saint Etienne that's currently circulating the Londontown scene.

Aislyn is the side project of Passion Pit keyboardist, Ian Hultquist and his girlfriend Sofia Degli Alessandri.  The Brooklyn couple produce original music as well as remixes.  Always a fan of a good remix, here are two of my favorites.
