SummersRadio™ New Music! High Highs!

SummersRadio™ New Music! High Highs - 'Flowers Bloom' High Highs are a trio originally from Australia that are now based in Brooklyn. They've previously released just two tracks online, in November - this is their third and latest song called 'Flowers Bloom'. This song fits perfectly right now... I just had a puppet show - and I was admiring how many bulbs are sprouting up on my balcony - I counted 56! Someone may or may not have been high when they labeled this youtube entry - it says 'flowers boom' - which would likely be quite a different sounding song! The sun is setting and although the air is cool, it feels a bit like spring - and so does this tune - Enjoy!

p.s. if this song is to your liking you can buy it from their website for $1 here: http://highhighs.com/  You can also support them on Facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/highhighs?v=info  I like how they list 'silence' as one of their influences - Cheers! 

SummersRadio™ New Music! The Boxer Rebellion!

SummersRadio™ New Music! The Boxer Rebellion - 'Both Sides Are Even' Here's another fine song from the new Boxer Rebellion album called 'The Cold Still' - released today. This is a gently atmospheric anthem called 'Both Sides Are Even' - I like the simplicity and power of the line 'It's the same thing, right or wrong'... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Mashup + Free Download! Arcade Fire Vs Blondie!

SummersRadio™ New Mashup + Free Download! Arcade Fire Vs Blondie - 'Sprawl Of Glass' (The Hood Internet Mashup) Finally!! As soon as I first heard Arcade Fire's 'Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)' I immediately thought it would sound great mashed up with Blondie's 'Heart Of Glass'! I even mentioned it when I first posted the song on my Facebook group back on Aug. 3rd last year (scroll WAY down in the older posts to see http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=699880219#!/group.php?gid=366897324071) as well as on my Best Of 2010 posts on Dec. 14th - both on FB and here: http://summersradio.blogspot.com/2010/12/summersradio-best-of-2010-arcade-fire.html Anyway the good news is that someone's finally done it - yay!!

The Hood Internet are a Chicago based production duo consisting of Aaron Brink (aka ABX) and Steve Reidell (aka STV SLV or Steve Sleeve). They generally specialize in mashups of hip hop and indie rock - although there are exceptions like this one of course. They also tour performing their live dj sets and they have their own blog which you can check out here: http://www.thehoodinternet.com/ and if this ace mashup is to your liking you can get a free download copy of the song from their Soundcloud page here: http://soundcloud.com/hoodinternet/the-hood-internet-sprawl-of-glass-arcade-fire-x-blondie  

I wish that they used the full album version of 'Heart Of Glass' so this was a bit longer and there were some more duels between some of the sounds distinct to each song (like how my remix of it sounds in my head!) but alas I don't know how to do it myself - and this still sounds awesome so... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Alex Metric & Steve Angello!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Alex Metric & Steve Angello - 'Open Your Eyes' (Original Mix) I actually first posted this song last September (via the SummersRadio™ Facebook group http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=366897324071), but then when I wanted to repost it during my Best Of 2010 listings all I could find was a preview snippet - and I don't like snippets!

Someone had obviously posted the song well before it was time, as it's only been released exclusively on Beatport this week - and even now it's only available in certain countries - and still not in Canada! Regardless, London's Alex Metric and Stockholm's Steve Angello have created a club masterpiece. With it's many varied sounds and tempo changes it manages to sound like a whole night full of great music in just over 7 minutes! 

I've been a fan of Alex Metric's work for many years and although I find some of Steve Angello's music a bit too mainstream for my taste, this is a good pairing - a nice mix of underground and popular sounds - I particularly like the Daft Punk-y part about 2:15 in... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! The Kills!

SummersRadio™ New Music! The Kills - 'Satellite' As mentioned on one of my posts on Jan. 18th, The Kills release their new album (their third) called 'Blood Pressures' on April 4th. At the time there was no word yet on a single, but the first one has now surfaced online - it's called 'Satellite' and it's the second track on the album. It's a slower paced - almost reggae style - distorted guitar tune... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! DJ Mankeletor!

SummersRadio™ New Music! DJ Mankeletor - 'On Track' (Original Mix) Pablo Saquilan aka DJ Mankeletor is a 'retired dj/ active producer' from Recreo Argentina. He's just released his latest song on Ocean Drive Records - a trippy hypnotic tech house number called 'On Track' and it's available on both itunes and Beatport... Enjoy!
