The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 229

A pretty full weekend… despite the rain (nice change for this city, everyday closer to the tropics). But now that we have a little break, it’s time to offer you our latest TOP TEN JUKEBOX, full of discoveries, as usual, plus a stunning cover of one Stereolab’s finest, courtesy of Seablite (can’t wait to listen their new release). There’s a wide variety of styles/genres in the music gathered, indiepop, jangle pop and arresting female singer-songwriters, a soundtrack for whatever mood suit us with this unpredictable weather. So we encourage you to delve into the tunes and enjoy the Sunday. And remember, all the songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

Build a wall to stop migration! Make a demonstration against a rapporteur (yet to be appointed)! Vote extreme right or/and millionaires (professional cheaters) to solve the (major, essential, pivotal) problems of inequality and distribution of wealth! Utter nonsense, bigotry and fascism, and we're afraid we, as citizens, have embraced this despicable era. The temptation to talk about politics is huge, but this weekend we're calling for a time out. Because we're about to take (momentary) shelter thanks to the Minifestival (Night Flowers, Free Cake for Every Creature and the mighty Kristin Hersh) tonight, plus we have prepared a terrific new TOP TEN JUKEBOX with several Blog beloved acts such as The Stroppies, the great Julia Jacklin covering The Strokes, I Was a King or one of the last gifts of the already missed Zach Denton alongside a bunch of exciting discoveries. Music as refuge, or as the medicine in order not to explode! Take a break and remember, all the songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 213

Yes, the month of 'polvorones' (shortbread cookies) and reflections has arrived. December is about to start, and with the last month is also time for the weekend which, for us, also means another desired disconnection, as we are taking some days off. But don't worry, that doesn't mean we aren't warming engines (and getting ready our neurons) for our beloved and traditional best of the year lists. Or that we haven’t prepared our latest TOP TEN JUKEBOX, fresh and ready to knock you out with the newest discoveries we have enjoyed the most lately. So, while we are off, have a listen & a good time, don't miss us much and remember, all the songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 187

We need a break. Seriously. Time out. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. This week has reached another step towards the certification of Spain as a fascist regime. Corruption and mafia (this time within the ruling governing party, by no means the first time) in the umpteenth & embarrassing case of political corruption within the government of Madrid. And yesterday, another despicable, shameful judicial decision. It's rape not-all-honourable magistrates. No is always No. Who stops the system when it constantly betrays you? The answer is US, only US. Sorry for the rant, but this week has been infuriating. So, if you share our feelings, or just need, want a distraction here's out latest TOP TEN JUKEBOX, fully loaded with new groups and great songs to begin what will be another long weekend for some. A soundtrack, we hope, to "breath some fresh air". Take care and remember, all tunes are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

A busy and turning point of a week, folks. Winds of change can (hopefully) be seen on the horizon at  (something about a door closing and a window opening..., right?) and with the desire and enthusiasm to begin new adventures soon, here we are, ready to bring you another round of our TOP TEN Jukebox, full of new discoveries and some beloved bands like Linda Guilala. Because being honest, we don't know what the future holds yet, but were are sure is going to be better if it arrives with great music. Have a wonderful weekend and remember, all tunes are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

Discoverer 164: new indie findings

No, this Blog is not taking holidays! Instead, we are eager to propose you another trio of music wonders in our discoverer series. Our "Easter eggs"are just ready for your listening pleasure!

Hurry. We begin or music trip in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with this trio composed by Matt Scottoline (vocals, guitar) and cousins Joe and Rob DeCarolis (bass & drums respectively). Formed in 2012, Hurry began as Scottoline's, member of Everyone Everywhere, solo project, writing the first homemade material under that moniker later on released on Bandcamp. But the need of assembling a band to perform the songs live alongside the sort of "hibernation" of Everyone Everywhere helped the proper birth of Hurry. After signing to Hot Green Records the trio announced first (or second, depends on how we count) album 'Everything/Nothing', out in October 2014, which was followed by LP 'Guided Meditation' in Spring 2016 via Lame-O Records. Now, after the EP 'Casual Feelings' out in October 2016, the band is back with their third/fourth record, 'Every Little Thought', out since this February. Somewhere in between Teenage Fanclub and Yo La Tengo, with traces of noise-pop and 90s alternative rock, Hurry's tunes are a jangly and melodic delight, instant love affair for the listener. Don't waste your time and check them out! 

Chemtrails. We move to London, UK, where this quintet is based. Lead by founders and main composers Mia Lust and Laura Orlova, the group started to make noise in 2016, signing with the great nordic label PNKSLM and debuting that September with EP 'Love in Toxic Wasteland'. A second EP, 'Headless Pin Up Girl' (one of the Blog favourites last year) appeared in Spring of 2017 and now, we can enjoy their first album, 'Calf of the Sacred Cow', out since this February. A very personal, idiosyncratic crossover between garage rock, power-pop and lo-fi psychedelia, think on Shrag meeting Blondie. Raw, bouncy, exciting music.

CCFX. And we end in Olympia, Washington, to meet this quartet discovered at the very end of past year (but they had to be featured at the Blog), formed by Chris McDonnell, Mirče Popovic, Mary Jane Dunphe and David Jaques, the result of local cult bands CC Dust and Trans FX (hence the mysterious moniker) merge. Self-titled debut EP appeared in late October 2017 via DFA Records, and is a very special one. Dream-pop unafraid of contemplating the waves at the cliff's edge, strangely warm and nostalgic, cinematic and disarmingly melodic, with the vocals of Dunphe knocking you out. There's magic here, a real gem awaiting to be discovered. More soon, please, please, please. 

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 165

Yep, today is Thursday, but here we are, ready to unveil our TOP TEN Jukebox already! Why, you ask? What's the reason for this change of day? Well, we have an extremely exciting weekend ahead that includes...attending The National gig in Lisbon! But don't worry: we are going to leave you in great hands, thanks to the excellent company of our beloved Sufjan Stevens, the new, arresting single of Line & Circle (one of our favourite 'newcomers', for sure), the comeback of Tennis and terrific discoveries like Patsy's Rats. Not bad for just one playlist, right? Have an awesome weekend and remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

We have tried, promise. We have tried not to talk about the TOPIC, but in fact it's quite difficult not to think, feel and breathe "about" this Catalonia-Spain situation... Luckily, we have a temporary antidote... that you can use as much as you can. Yes, of course, we are referring to our new TOP TEN Jukebox! This time we have our beloved Sharon Van Etten 'revisiting' us with her always perfect tunes, but also a Seattle riot grrrl band called Who is she?, an Antipodean touch thanks to Last Leaves or the Swedish band Stars in Coma. An amazing global playlist for this crazy weeks of raising flags and actually doing & saying nothing... Have fun, try to disconnect as much as you can and remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 159

Surreal times, folks. Personal celebrations, with a most-welcomed "re-encounter" included, alongside with hospital visits and a political national scenario that really looks like a terrible, bad, gross, supposedly funny movie. Thanks music for helping us not to being schizophrenic, here's a new round of our  TOP TEN Jukebox, as diverse as awesome, coming a bit later than usual (we insist, crazy week), but ready to cheer-up your Sunday, thanks to friends like our beloved The Luxembourg Signal, or the "re-invention" of the great 'George Best' by The Wedding Present, as well as new discoveries like Colombian artist Loyal Lobos or New Zealanders Grawlixes. Take care and remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

Despite we are counting down days for our deserved and longed holidays (hoping that the strike at El Prat Airport ends and we are able to fly... or, at some point, we are going to start thinking we are jinxed) we are here still proposing you new tunes at our TOP TEN Jukebox! This week we bring you an old gem thanks to The Siddeleys, but also plenty of new discoveries like the jangle-pop proposal of Verandan, the Summer vibes of Walter Etc or the indiepop from the Singaporean band Sobs. A lot to discover and enjoy in this new round of our playlist!  Take care and remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

We know, we know, We are a bit late again. But it has been another really long, busy, stressful week... just before getting abducted by next week's Primavera Sound Festival (for those who will be there, see you at Forum!). Anyway, here's our new TOP TEN Jukebox! Besides, there has been too many great tunes lately to be skipped, some dropped by familiar 'faces' like our beloved Courtney Barnett (come back to Barcelona!), The Popguns or the stunning return to the Luxembourg Signal, plus an eclectic bunch of new discoveries like Breakfast Muff's feminist song or the wobbly keyboards of School Damage. Hope you have a nice Sunday! Remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!).
