California-based sweet heart Mereki held on tight to her foxy dog and released a new song a couple weeks ago. Blue Lake is pop’y 21st century Spice Girls goodness, first single off her upcoming debut EP. Hit play.
Less than a month til MS Dockville will take over Hamburg with maybe its best line-up in years. Before that one will go down though, its electronic/hip-hop sibling SPEKTRUM will warm-up the venue in Wilhelmsburg. Saturday August 3rd, two stages, young MCs and loads of electro aficionados set the scene for some summer head nodding.
A couple of big names on the line-up, Mount Kimbie, Danny Brown and attached below Koreless: 19-year-old producer from Glasgow, atmospheric tunes at their finest, out on Young Turks roster. Nineteen. Amazing. Tickets for SPEKTRUM are prices at a reasonable 18 euros, grab four for 50 euros. See you there?
Driving indie rock by London’s talent-heavy Eliza and the Bear. Second single Friends off their upcoming album. Check their impressive festival line-up through out the summer. Gonna make an appearance at Hamburg’s Reeperbahn Festival too – whaaat!
Possibly not so much under the radar this one: DIIV. Sort of a Beach Fossils offspring, but sporting a tad more stripped down sound. Definitely one of the highlights I reckon, especially on the closing Sunday, hungover, etc. Will be one not to miss. Attached is Doused off their grand debut album from last year.
DIIV are playing Intro Zelt on Sunday, 20h45.
Sick new remix by one of Team Poule’s favorites: Malouines. The Frenchman based in Ukraine’s enchanting capital Kiev shared a track for Poule d’Or compilation 11 in May (free for download – here) and now returns with another hot one. Here is his take on Pendentif’s Embrasse Moi – featuring a sexy french voice. Always a plus.
Massive fan of Swim Deep. Regular followers will agree as the lads have supported Poule d’Or since their earliest 30-facebook-fans days. Pure indie rock, straight from the heart. From the heart. It seems like they’ve been around for a while but they are still like 16 years old. Babies, practically. Look out for their debut album to drop August 5th. Attached is their latest single, She Changes The Weather.
Swim Deep are playing Gemini Stage on Saturday, 19h15.
