Amason

My super-sister introduced me to Amason last week and I instantly fell in love with the first track I'm featuring.  Amason are a lovely Swedish supergroup featuring a member of one of my darling loves Little Majorette and even a member of Miike Snow!  There's a couple others in there, but I don't know them!  Nonetheless, good stuff all around!  Their self-titled EP was released late last year on the lovely Ingrid.



Then there's this awesomeness, very musically reminiscent of Little Majorette...



And more recent deliciousness....

Austra - Habitat

Absolutely in love with this new video by Austra from their recently released "Habitat" EP.  The rest of the EP may be quite lackluster but this track is excellent.

Ice Cream Cathedral

Since my sister started her blog, she's been coming at me with all sorts of delicious pop.  On Friday, she presented me with Ice Cream Cathedral and from the first minute of "The Swans", I was in mad love.  Ice Cream Cathedral are a Danish band who've been around for a few years now.  They released their debut album "The Drowsy Kingdom" early in 2013 and just last month, released the awesome follow-up "Sudden Anatomy".  I highly recommend both as fine slices of space pop deliciousness.

From Sudden Anatomy...

Alexandra Stan - Cherry Pop

Ever since first hearing "Mr Saxobeat" in Berlin, I have been quietly obsessed with the Euro-trashy pop that is Alexandra Stan's music.  This changes nothing.  Still Euro-trashy, still perfect!
