Tegan & Sara: The Con

Fun photo of Tegan & Sara
Twins from Calgary, Alberta
I like all their albums but their latest has been my favorite thus far.
I couldn't find any quality videos for this album, but listen here for older stuff.

Beach House: Devotion

With Devotion & their self titled album,
Beach House has slowly crept into my heart.
Time spent listening to them on my porch at night accompanied by the crickets has become the summer ritual of choice.
Listen here.

slagsmalsklubben: Boss for leader!

(Minus the umlaut thingys)
Crazy Swedish electronica
Listen here.

Lupe Fiasco: Food & Liquor

An all around good record as you may already know.

He features artists I have already loved.
I am not quite as skilled a skateboarder.

Lupe Fiasco - Kick Push

Ratatat: Remixes Vol 2

Ratatat just makes everything better.
Fair warning: Contains naughty words
haha

CocoRosie: La maison de mon reve

More rainy day music.
I also like their other albums.

Kaki King: until we felt red

I stumbled across this gentle little thing one day and I really enjoy it on a rainy evening such as tonight.
It is airy & beautiful.
Watch the amazing talent here and here.

Tender Forever: Wider

This album has been growing on me.
It's mostly just she and her laptop.
She's from France.
Super creative... Watch here.

My Drive-Thru

Ian Cooke: The Fall I Fell

A beautiful voice with his cello.
Ian is a local here in Denver.
He's amazing in to listen to live.

Sufjan Stevens: Come on feel the Illinoise

Listen to the track "Chicago"

His lyrics are great.
He has a newer album, but this one's my favorite.
He's super Christian.
His music is super pretty.
It's found on many soundtracks.
Listen here.

Robots in Disguise: Get Rid!

Power pop from Great Britain and Germany
(If you can't get enough Le Tigre)

Chromeo is hilarious
Fancy Footwork is fun for dancing

Lykke Li: Youth Novels

Because I like a lot of Swedish music, and I just picked up my brother from the airport from Sweden and he let me borrow this album.
Listen here and here.

Sigur Ros: (Icelandic words I can't type)

The latest from the Icelandic band
has a magical summer vibe to it.

It's so pretty, you don't need to know what he's singing.
The Gobbledigook video is essentially this cover photo in motion.
(A bunch of Nakee friends dancing about the woods)
The album title translates to,
"With a buzz in our ears we play endlessly."
Watch here. (Contains nudity as a warning to those of you who are bashful)
