Fellow Torontonians Nightbox apparently liked Bravestation’s new single a lot – so they remixed it. Twice. Here is the Jungle Trip remix – perfect soundtrack to start your Saturday night. Also check the Midnight Chemicals remix. Both available for download on Soundcloud.

We went to this venue for its free beers and the Nudie Jeans pop-up store and ran into Jesse Kivel from Kisses. Turns out he was just about to go on stage with his band Princeton, along with his brother Matt, Ben Usen and David Kitz. They played an energetic set in the afternoon, under the sky of Austin. Friday afternoon, 28C, free beer, open-air concert > what dreams are made of.
Princeton - Remembrance Of Things To Come

New York group Miracles of Modern Science was a big surprise. Caught them Sunday night at Stubb’s waiting for a table in the restaurant. Maybe it was the spur of the moment but their setup of mandolin, violin and cello arranged around banging drums produced a refreshing pop sound > unlike anything I heard before. Their latest album Dog Days was released in December last year, but I reckon the true greatness of this unusual mix is best seen live..

I was really pumped to finally see Beat Connection (>Poule d’Or 4) and caught them twice, at LoveJoys and Red7. The production duo Jordan and Reed added singer Tom and drummer Jarred to live line-up a while ago, and I thought it worked really well. The set was therefore more engaging and wild and less electronic and instrumental-based than their recorded material. They closed with an extended version of In The Water > pure bliss.

Just can’t get enough of Summer Heart. This is his latest track, off his upcoming album. It’s simple, it’s dreamy, it’s just right. Loving it. A Million Times is also his first track to come with an official video – directed to Jonas Börjesson.
