The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 227

Have you fulfilled your duties as a responsible citizen? Already voted? As we told you, we had more songs pending in the pipeline for you! Here's our double dose of TOP TEN JUKEBOX with many more discoveries, awaiting for your listening pleasure. Who knows, if the extreme right (we have three parties here among them, so plenty to choose from) wins, or the too hip to vote left skips the elections this might be the last playlist (fascists and culture are not very good friends). So please, if you haven't already, go to the polling station and vote... for everything that all is at stake (our social and labour rights, women rights, our freedoms at risk, our welfare state & public services, the climate change....), or in short, for our future. United, we can. Have a good Sunday and remember, all the songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 152

Time to go back to our weekly TOP TEN Jukebox, full of refreshing & summer mood songs. Because, on paper, July is supposed to be an "easy" month in terms of work but, this isn't reality AT ALL. That's why we have thought to bring you a "taste" of what the season should be by mixing the latest collaboration of a most beloved artist, Sharon Van Etten, with new interesting projects like Kidd or Houseplants. Have a nice weekend, relax and remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

Discoverer 95: new indie findings

Back with our new music proposals series. Several amazing bands awaiting to be discovered for you, here's the flamboyant trio of the week!

Beverly. Based in Brooklyn, Beverly is a duo formed by hyper-active indie musician Frankie Rose, former member of Dum Dum Girls, Crystal Stilts, Vivian Girls, and Drew Citron, formerly in Ava Luna. Together since 2013, they finished their debut album in early 2014, with the irresistible first single 'Honey Do' happily collapsing our ears since February. Now, since past week we can enjoy the full album 'Careers', out on Kanine Records. The 60s married with the 90s, sweet female vocals wrapped in a dreamy pop haze with occasional bursts of electricity and fuzzy feedback placed on the background. Pleasant and solid in equal measure, the 'Careers' of Beverly promises to be an utterly joyous ride!

Cozy Catastrophes. Hailing from Bloomington, Indiana, Greg Adams ran the independent reissue record label Beehive Rebellion Records before writing over 1.000 album reviews and artist bios (!) for the All-Music Guide, plus hosting a thematic oldies radio program. What was left in his music agenda then? Starting his solo recording project, which he did last year, releasing debut album 'An Instructive Amusement' in August 2013. Now, thanks to our dear friends from February Records, Adams is back with a new EP, 'Way Last June', out now (there's an ultra-limited cassette too if you prefer, hurry!). Smart, warm and slightly somber bedroom-pop full of delicious melodic hooks and a subtle use of instruments like Casios, glockenspiels. An intimate pleasure!

Blessa. Although Liv Neller and Alex Burton started creating music before in Suffolk, as a quintet format, alongside with Jake Murray and brothers Robert and Andy Piercy, they only started making music together when most of them graduated at Sheffield's University in July 2013. After a few songs available online, in November arrived their debut 7" single 'Between Times / Bloom' on No-Self Records. The buzz start spreading and, finally, here's their follow-up in the form of EP 'Love is an Evol Word' out next week on Carmel Records / Generator. Dreamy pop fronted by Neller's killer vocals, here's The XX colliding with Fear of Men, electronic hints sharing melodies with jangly guitars... It might be an evol word, but you can't help falling in love with a band like them. Instant crush.
