Lemonade


Lemonade is a Brooklyn - based trio. That's about all I know.

Delorean are a Spanish quartet formed in 2000. They typically combine punk rock and electronic music which they perfect in their own nightclub, Desperrame. After their popularity increased due to a successful visit to SXSW in 2007, the group toured with jj and Miike Snow. However, most of their fame is still due to their smashing remixes (oh, and yes - they were named after the famous Delorean from Back to the Future)

Lemonade + Delorean = greatness. It's like a really hyper kindergardener smashed into a stoned lifeguard and they went clubbing.

Piece by Piece


A sensual number from Georgia-born, Ireland-raised singer Katie Melua.

Sexy, sad, and summery.

The Magic Wands are Nashville-based duo Chris and Dexy Valentine. Here's a lovely review and summary of Magic Wands' music... a distorted, super indie, retro guitar sound. Fun.

Tennis

To quote from the band Tennis's record label, Underwater Peoples Records, "Patrick and Alaina [the members of Tennis] bought a boat together and sailed around the ocean. They dodged freighters, waded squalls, swam ashore in the bahamas, ate at restaurants with named like "Spanky's", and got married. With no destination in mind, the trip led them to the songs heard on this recording" ("This recording" refers to their album Tennis 7")

So, listen: it's better than the sport.
