The Salmon Dance

This British act (the Godfrey brothers; Paul and Ross, and vocalist Skye Edwards) is well known for it’s trip hop beats and psychedelic sounds, but it also draws inspiration from blues, rhythm, rock and pop.

They are mostly known for the hit single ‘Rome Wasn’t Built In a Day’; their most commercial song to date. However, the Morcheeba experience is more than just some catchy song with a brassy arrangement that screams 50s jive, jazz and blues. The key word here is ambiance.

In 2003, the Godfrey brothers dismissed Skye Edwards from the band (citing musical and personal differences), and that my friends, was the most stupid thing they ever did… and their post-skye work sucked a little… Musically the tracks were fine, but the vocals missed the finesse Miss Edwards brings to the table…

And now, after 7 years of absence, Morcheeba go back to their winning formula *ecstatic grin* Skye, Paul and Ross reunited together and have completed their 7th studio album: Blood Like Lemonade.

This is their latest single Even Though… enjoy ^^

This French electro-swing ensemble produce quite an alternative sound to the traditional swing. I can’t decide which is my fave song so I’m posting 3 videos below…

Released in 2009, the album sees Einaudi take a new direction with his music as he incorporates synthesized sounds alongside his solo piano playing.. [I think the style we know can still be felt very strongly]

35,000 album copies sold already just in Italy!! 

These 2 tracks are considered as his best.

They are not a band, but they have worked on different projects together ranging from from electro-pop to trip-hop or folk.
This is one of them.

Their gorgeous music has been described as  “melody-laden loveliness” as well as “innocent, hip and new.”

Well, the band itself is still very new to me, so I’m going to leave you with a song I’ve been introduced to today “Sad Song”  …
