Who: Chappo from NYC.

What: New recipients of the coveted iPod commercial, check out NYC duo Chappo‘s track ‘Come Home’.  They recently released this song on the Plastique Universe EP,  fall in love with their garagey psych-rock.  Here’s the ad.

Song: Come Home (from P4k).

Take a quick trip over to Neon Gold Records where through a series of clicks you can download great remixes of my song of the summer ‘Young Blood‘ by The Naked and Famous.  One’s from Sweden’s The Sounds Of Arrows, the other by Pink Ganter flipping the Passion Pit sounding track a little more towards The Knife.

‘All Day Day Light’ by The Morning Benders.  Killer track and video.

Who: Sacred Animals from Dublin.

What: Sacred Animals is a solo project from a mystery man born in Wexford, Ireland.  He’s planning on revealing himself at a live performance at the Electric Picnic this Saturday, but apparently he’s someone people might know from his previous work in music.  From the pic above, I can’t tell.  This song comes from his four-song EP (Welcome Home), for fans of Thom Yorke or stripped down Doves b-sides.

Song: Chosen Seed.

Chosen Seed by The Delphi Label

‘Quarry Hymns’ by Land Of Talk.

While searching a few blogs, I came across a post about Denmark’s Oh Land, aka Nanna Fabricius.  Been spending a lot of today on her SoundCloud page hearing the killer track ‘Son Of A Gun’ and a few remixes for the track. Check it out.

Also, take a look at her video for ‘Still Here‘.

‘Dirty Thing’ by Telekinesis.  This summer hit is available on the Parallel Seismic Conspiracies EP (available on iTunes), also containing a track called  “Calling All Doctors,” and covers of Guided By Voices’ “Game of Pricks” and Warsaw’s “The Drawback”.

Who: The War On Drugs from Philadelphia.

What:  To follow up on their critically acclaimed debut Wagonwheel Blues, The War On Drugs will be releasing Future Weather on October 26th (via Secretly Canadian).  Using a unique recording process to blur the edges of  what we call American music, hear the result in the endless layers of guitar melody and atmospherics of “Comin’ Through”.  Look for them to tour this fall at select dates in the Eastern U.S. including an appearance at Hopscotch Festival in Raleigh, North Carolina September 9.

Song: Comin’ Through.  Reminds me of Tom Petty.
