LE CHARIVARI tweeted this song and Camille and Sarah know best. Fact. So, it’s no surprise that this song has been stuck on repeat at Poule d’Or headquarters since. Swim Deep are four London Birmingham lads making some fine tunes. You know what to do. Listen. And follow LE CHARIVARI on the tweetie.
The glittery reverb poppers that are James Brooks and Josh Clancy aka Elite Gymnastics dished up a new double release this week: Ruin 1 and 2. Both discs come packed with tropical drum fused kind of elusive electro beats and hazy vocals. These guys are fking special.

Daniel Amedee is a 24-year old singer from New Orleans. He describes his music as “orchestral rock” but I guess you might as well say it’s folk? I don’t know. En tout cas, his debut album “Themes From …” is beautifully dreamy, very well produced and overall pretty enjoyable! A fitting warm summer evening soundtrack. It is out now on iTunes and streamed over at SoundCloud. For you Poule d’Or loyals, Daniel is giving away Solution for free.

Nothing really beats spending a vintage, Belgian, summer-ish day hanging out by the lake: having a few drinks, playing tennis, wearing your tux, bringing along the fox. Business as usual. Coincidentally, Belgium’s finest export has a new track out providing the soundtrack. Odd Lovers is only the second song Jason and Dijf released and it follows Miami‘s catchy greatness quite nicely. Keep an eye on their fine moustaches.

While in Paris, Poule’s good friends LE CHARIVARI conducted a nice interview of Drew Harris of Germany Germany – with a little help of Nathan Willson of nathanwillson.com and Yours Truly.
Paris was quite epic once again, if you have a chance to catch Drew on his European Tour, go for it. Amazing live set.
