Is there a limit how interesting, moving or how beautiful is James Blake's new single "Limit To Your Love"? No.
A Feist cover, that does her definitely right and even more. Almost dub rhythms in the background, piano music and a base that is so low, your heart will resonate. Blake's Klavierwerke EP and other releases speak for a promising future. Don't keep us waiting too long.

The Small Body of Françoise
Le Corps Mince de Françoise is another excellent Finnish group that hit a lot of hype online two years ago. Now everyone is just waiting to see what will happen next. As the years went by the girls went to Berlin (where's supposedly a very high profile music scene - everyone knows that the greatest new electro comes always from Paris!). Recently they went from three main members to two and the hype went with the tide. It's interesting to see can LCMDF prove their worth once again or are they alredy out. Have they been waiting too long with their first album? They made intentionally a very hipster image of themselves, but are we alredy too cool and bored of them? Here is their new video "Ghandi". It´s okay.
A Curiosity: Finnish Bhangra?!
Stumbled across this band Shava that just published their very first album "Betoninen kotimaani" ("My Concrete Homeland") in Finland. Their musicstyle is what I wouldn't call typical Finnish. They play bhangra.
So for an amusing example, listen first to the original stuff and then switch to Shava. Listen to the lyrics in the different languages. Curious isn't it?

Just wanted to post this - I love
A new love for me. Cassius and French electro never fail to please. Also worth mentioning Cassius - Brotherhood. Elegant tones, cool rythms and light melodies that only the cheese and wine loving people can gracefully compose.

The Fuck You's
Just heard the new Cee Lo Green singel titeld "Fuck You", and must say I'm so loving it right now. We all have our baggage, but some artists just hit the spot with lyrics like "-- altough there's pain in my chest, I still wish you the best, with a fuck you." Even better if there's mowtown in the background and choirgirls singing backup. C´mon clap your hands and oh yes, go fuck yourself!
Inspired by baggagesongs, found some old hits with fuckyou's. Ofcourse also to mention the mother of all heartbreaks Amy Winehouse, her song "Tears dry on their own" is as well a power breakupsong and suprisingly kind of suddle, wich is unlikely to Miss Winehouse's repertuar. Oh excuse me, she does say "-- fuck myself in the head with stupid men."
From a few years back was a small hit with Eamon's "Fuck It". Really heavy emotional draining, good for the hating times, but then you should really move along. From Robyn's new album Body Talk pt. 1 "Dancing on my own", musicly a long way from the up beat big band singalong and dosen't even contain one swearword, but is a feelgoodsong after all the shit.
