The Airportline: Observations

Note to self:

When time is present, take a closer look at Ottawa outfit The Acorn that The Concretes singer Lisa Millberg recently blogged about. After two listens to The Flood Pt. 1 you thought that it sounded like Fleet Foxes, Vampire Weekend and a sunset over Angola. And for those readers who felt offended by Fabolous raplyrics about dicks, you will love the all around playful hippie feel in this one.

Now I need to tape a head set, burn cds, read a report from China, have a skype meeting concerning a report from China, and then go and print some things.

Trying to keep up with what's new in the world of contemporary pop music? Chances are that you have stumbled over Discovery, a combination of force between a member of Vampire Weekend and a member from Ra Ra Riot. Both fantastic pop bands that released two of the best records of last year. So what happens when you combine these ingredients? Well, from the sound of the first three songs, a unstoppable combination of electro, sunshine, Justin Timberlake, R&B, Hot Chip and that feeling you can get on a warm dancefloor during a late summer night. So, yeah, looking for this summers soundtrack, look no further than Discovery. I dance inside my head everytime I listen to them

Here you can listen to two songs

And here, my favourite, So Insane
