Veps announces their debut album Oslo Park for November 18th release on Kanine Records - with newest single Mooney Tunes streaming today. Produced by fellow Norwegian Matias Tellez (Girl In Red, Sondre Lerche + +), Mooney Tunes is Veps at their most dynamic. Continuing to dish out indie pop bangers with a carefree, diy attitude, Mooney Tunes is a particularly sunny and upbeat track. Veps says it is “about being far away from someone you love. About how great it is to be with them and how fast time passes by with them. Sometimes, in relationships, it feels like you’re on different planets, but you […]

Composed of eleven new songs, Someday Is Today is Living Hour at their most pensive and longing. The vulnerable lyrics are brought beautifully to life by lush and generous instrumentation that winds its way through the album. It was recorded over seven straight days during the dark depths of a Manitoba winter, with the band cocooned in the sounds they were making as the temperature hit -30 outside the door. “It’s a grind, but it’s incredibly challenging in a frustratingly beautiful kinda way,” Sarty says of their local environment. “It pushes you to keep going, to keep finding glimmers to […]

Hong Kong based dream pop group Lucid Express shares the single “Lime” and its counterpart remix by Ringo Deathstarr’s Elliott Frazier today. “Lime” is taken from the upcoming 12” vinyl release of the group’s Floret EP, which is out digitally October 21st, 2022 and on limited orange vinyl March 3rd, 2023 (preorder now). Long before Lucid Express released their eponymous debut album last year, the same five musicians created their first recordings together as Thud and released the 5-track digital EP Floret (2015).   However, the years that followed were a tumultuous time, both personally and politically. In those years […]

Today, Living Hour shares another new track "Miss Miss Miss"  from the upcoming "Someday is Today" out Sep 2nd. "Miss Miss Miss" is about growing up in Winnipeg and continuing to live in the same town as a budding adult. My whole life I’ve driven, biked, bussed, gotten rides up and down Portage Avenue time and time again. In so many different headspaces and seasons of my life I’ve passed the same neon horse sign of the Palomino Club. This song is a celebration of the horse, constantly climbing higher, up and away from Portage Ave, my secret symbol of hope, […]
