Right now it’s raining outside my window. And for this mellow state, the perfect soundtrack is soft guitars by the British Benjamin Francis Leftwich, and his song Pictures from his last year’s debut Last Smoke Before The Snowstorm.

FM Belfast – StripesFM Belfast – Stripes
I somehow missed last year’s release from Berlin based Morr Music label – “Don’t Want To Sleep” by FM Belfast. It’s good that a couple of days ago, they reminded of them with the single from this album, Strips. Lightweight electronics for massive dancing! ПропуÑтила в прошлом году релиз отличного берлинÑкого лейбла Morr Music, FM […]

They can be placed in the same line with Interpol, the Strokes and the like. Their second album, The Golden Mean is mostly upbeat, […]
СБПЧ – ВтроемСБПЧ – Втроем
Russian music is rare here, but it doesn’t mean that it’s non-existent. Samoe Bolshoe Prostoe Chislo is a project by Kirill Ivanov and “Elochnie Igrushki”. The video is from their 2011 album Flashka. I doubt that it’d be very interesting to listen to without the knowledge of Russian, as the lyrics are very good. Still, […]
