Elizabeth Rose has this new track out, a real beauty. And it’s only the tip of the iceberg as it’s part of a really astonishing project Absent Fever has going on called Woman Was The Word:
Woman Was the Word is a project Tyler and I (Tyler of Flashlight Tag and Eloise of verb/re/verb; ed.) envisioned in observation of the nature in which women are present in the art world, specifically in regards to music. We found that though women are present, their presence is often unknown or unrecognized. While most fields are male dominant, this may not be entirely true in visual arts and music. (…..)
Seriously, check this out. It’s proper art, not the bloggy blog kind of art going on most of the time. They went the extra extra mile for this one. Great music, fantastic visuals and some really nice poems as well. Click click.
Sparkling Spaniard Sutja Gutiérrez has just released a new mini album entitled White Ponycorn In My Room. It’s packed with brilliant dreamy lo-fi tunes and comes just in time as the sun is laying its warming rays on most part of Europe. Perfect summer music. Sutja Gutiérrez all day long.

Remember that epic FISHING remix of Alpine’s track Heartlove on Poule d’Or 6? Well, Russ and Doug
(…) decided to give out a whole mix of stuff we made right at the beginning that hasn’t really been heard.

These are the places where Fishing began! 18 ideas for FISHING IN THE COLO WILDERNESS (HARD DRIVE CLEAN OUT).
Munk‘s latest song is an homage to the city of Marseille, where he lives at the moment. If you can spare 4 minutes, watch the video all the way to the end, it’s worth it.
Canadian dream-folk-poppers Freedom Or Death, who you may have caught on compilation 5, ready the release of their new 7 track album (or EP depending which side of the street you’re on). EGO will be unleashed April 26th through their own label LIARS & THIEVES and be distributed by Arts & Crafts. The album was recorded over 5 months in Toronto and is a progression from their rad and self titled debut EP.
Fernandez and Sway are the nicest people, so they made two tracks off it available to download for you loyal Poule d’Or followers. Inside is off EGO and captures the core of what Freedom Or Death are about: dreamy vocal-driven pop songs. Virginia Woolf shows the other end of their artistic spectrum, the more electronic/acoustic folk approach. All good.
