New years evening setlist 9: Acid Washed - Acid washed (danger remix)

What a great track to start 2011. Acid Washed is a two-man process primarily, deteriorating sound amongst souvenirs, friends, home studios and analogue equipment. It follows the blueprint devised over the past year by Richard D’Alpert and Andrew Claristidge: two DJ’s keen on using modern and vintage equipment to create sophisticated electronics with a sharp pop aesthetic.

The Vaccines - Post Break-Up Sex

The Vaccines creëerden een kleine hype in de UK met de slechts 1,5 minuut durende single Wreckin' Bar (Ra Ra Ra). Met de titel van hun nieuwe single zullen ze ongetwijfeld ook aandacht krijgen. Leuk gitaarpopliedje van deze nieuwe Britse band.

The Wombats - Jump into the fog

Als The Wombats een nieuwe single hebben, dan moeten we die toch even plaatsen. Opvolger van Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves). Misschien minder energie dan dat nummer, maar wel weer pakkend. Van het nieuwe album waarvan de release is uitgesteld. Daarom is het concert van de band eind februari in de Melkweg ook afgelast.

Follow up to Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves). Less epic than that song, but it still rocks. New album is postponed but these two songs are on it.
We have to be a bit patient. Watch the official video.

The Decemberists - January Hymn

Ingetogen liedje dat goed past bij deze periode van het jaar. Het is de tweede single van The Decemberists van hun nieuwe - nog te verschijnen - plaat The King Is Dead.

Twin Sister - All around and away we go

Color your life. Koop deze EP van Twin Sister. Ze komen uit Brooklyn. De stem van Andrea Estella zou wat zijn voor The Voice. Wel goed om te weten dat dit nummer er op de EP met kop en schotel bovenuit steekt. Nog een jaartje doorgroeien schat ik zo in. Tourden in oktober met The Morning Benders, ook al zo'n Oorbijter ontdekking in 2010.

A few indie labels have already contacted the group, but they plan on gigging behind Color Your Life for a few months before considering their options. "We have enough material to make a few albums," says D'Amico, "but I think we're just going to kind of hold our breath for a little bit."
