Mix Tapes
Hear Me Now | Super Indie Hipster New Release Tunes
Really now. I wish I could program my computer to STOP ME from giving posts STUPID TITLES. That said, despite this titles stupidity it rather clearly dictates what this post is about. Check the waters depth before you DIVE IN:
Iotah Foreign Lover
I don’t care an iota (oh yeah, I did it) for squealing Australian female vocalists. AND I’M FEMALE. And I don’t care. And I usually turn the radio off and scoff. It all sounds the same. Little Sia, Clare Birdy, Sarah Bowditch & Blah Blasko. Not interested. And yet, along came Iotah with all their youth and talent and suddenly what a multitude of solo singers couldn’t do, this group of sisters have done: made me actually enjoy some folky, harmonic, wimpy crap. I LOVE THIS SONG!
Hungry Kids of Hungary Wristwatch
I’m sorry that last paragraph was mean and aggressive. Suck it up. Let’s kick the beat up a few paces people and jump and dance and clap to the hungriest kids newest track. Love crushing it’s face to the ground. Can’t wait till I know all the lyrics. And it’s so short! Only 1:53 minutes. Holy moly that’s my height in centimeters. Soul mates.
Arcade Fire The Suburbs
I know nothing about this band. And I’m not about to Wikipedia them. But… I know they’re REALLY FAMOUS and people PAY MONEY TO SEE THEM LIVE and why am I using caps lock so much today? There’s something so cruisey and infectious about this tune. Thanks Arcade Fire, whoever you are.
Big Boi Shutterbug
Er… is Hip Hop indie? Whatever. I’m a free bitch baby. If you like your base to be so low all your excess skin starts wobbling (too far) then this song is for you home boy. N.A.S.T.Y. Parts of this track kind of sound like G Funk. I miss G Funk.
Eddy Current Suppression Ring Anxiety
Ah, nothing beats an album that sounds like it’s been recorded in a dirty toilet. Remember the bathrooms at St Jeromes?! Never forget. Anyway, this sounds like those toilets. But good! No queue. And edgy. I’m stopping now.
Your Hipster Friends,
Comeback Kid
