Lydmor - Electric Mistress

Great synthpop out of Denmark from Lydmor! We just met and I love her already! Her debut album "A Pile of Empty Tapes" was released back in May. I want it, now!

Still Corners - Fireflies

Here's a gorgeous new single from Still Corners. "Fireflies" is being released as a 7" single and will be available during their upcoming European tour! How rude! I need this 7"!! Someone in Europe, go to one of their shows and get me a copy. Please!

Compute - The Distance

The lovely synth pop inDIeVA Compute (aka Ulrika Mild who plays in Liechtenstein and formerly played with Champagne Riot) released her 2nd album in May of this year. It is called "The Distance". Like a dumb-bunny, I'm just finding out about it today! Needless to say, I'm super excited and have already placed my order! Here's a video for "This Is It" taken from "The Distance"... looks like I've got a new dance routine!

Superfamily - Pay the Price

Definitely loving the bouncy pop chorus for the new Superfamily single "Pay the Price"...time to dance!

Molly Nilsson - I Hope You Die

Here's a random but very cool video from Molly Nilsson! This is my favourite track off her latest album "History". It's really hard to beat cutie puppies on treadmills! Molly has also just begun her new N. American tour! She'll be in LA on Oct 19! Yay!!!

Elephant Parade

Today I present the lovely indie pop of Elephant Parade. From Brooklyn, Elephant Parade is the lovely duo of Estelle & Ido. Estelle used to play in Brittle Stars who are so super lovely and the subject of an older Ooberus Oblivious post. Elephant Parade has two albums out, "Bedroom Recordings" (2006) and "Home" (2010). The following track is taken from their debut and it's simple beauty really gets me.




And here's some beauty from their 2nd album featuring Ido on lead vocals...

Parenthetical Girls - Curtains

I really love this latest track from Parenthetical Girls, even though I expect Berlin to pop in there singing at any given time! "Curtains" is from the 5th and final EP in the band's Privilege series. Great stuff.

The Luyas - Fifty Fifty

The Luyas are back with a new album "Animator", released next month. Looks like they've added a little vigor & pop to the first single, "Fifty Fifty". I can't wait!!

Burning Hearts - Modern Times

Here's the new video for Burning Hearts' great song "Modern Times" from their excellent latest album "Extinctions"! If you get a chance to see them live anywhere, do it! They were one of the highlights from NYC Popfest this year!

Chinawoman - Pure at Heart

As always, Chinawoman has delivered another sensual little pop ditty that I love! Her newest single is "Pure at Heart" and was released yesterday. You can buy the digital single by clicking here.

Tender Trap - Step One

If I'm ever gonna take instructions from anyone on how to form a super indie pop girl band, it's gonna be Amelia Fletcher of Tender Trap / Heavenly-fame! She does just that in "Step One", the first single from their upcoming album "Ten Songs About Girls"!

inDIeVA Alert! - de Montevert

de Montevert out of Sweden makes delicious indie electro pop! She sings in both Swedish & English. She has a debut album coming out at the end of the month and it's called "Vänner & Ovänner / Friends & Enemies". I've been waiting for it for some time!

Listen!
