Chlöe Howl - No Strings

I can't really find much about Chlöe Howl besides the fact that she's a UK pop singer.  She apparently hasn't hit it big enough to have a wikipedia page yet.  She only has two songs up on SoundCloud so far ("Music" is actually a duplicate of "Rumour"), but they're both quite catchy.

Crystal Fighters - Champion Sound &

I was away last weekend enjoying the beautiful canals and sights and sounds of Amsterdam, so I never got a chance to post a song.  I figured I would do two this week to make up for it.


Crystal Fighters - Champion Sound - I heard this song featured in an episode of Cougar Town.  They were all having a dance party.  This song was perfect for the scene and now that's all I want to do when I hear it!

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Same Love (ft. Mary Lambert) - This album has kind of expanded past the indie genre to storm the popular charts, but it is a fantastic album that deserves all of the accolades.  I'm not a huge hip hop fan, but I also try not to rule out any genre based on my preconceived notions.  The reason why I love this song is the strong pro-acceptance message.  I feel strongly about equal rights and equality and I hate that people are judged and condemned by others for things they can't change (race, sexual orientation, gender, etc.).  None of these things can be changed, but attitudes can be.  This song gives me hope that maybe someday they will.

Jack Moy & Glöden - Drink, Drank, Drunk

Hey there!  I am passionate about music.  By that I mean that I have absolutely zero actual musical talent of my own, but I take satisfaction in rooting out amazing indie music that is not already being spoon-fed to us by popular radio and TV.  I like to make mix CDs for my friends to spread the word about some of my favourite songs, so I thought that I would also share some of them here.  And so it begins...
