Moscow pictures.

Some pictures from my Moscow business trip. Such an interesting city so full of contrasts.

PETITE MELLER - NYC Time

The War On Drugs and bikes.

How cool is this! The War On Drugs performed at this years Flow Festivals bike park! See the video below:

Also I bought a bike today! Isn´t she a beauty! It is from a Finnish brand called Helkama and the model is "Saana".

 

Mood is this.

I Got You On Tape Somersault (Money Your Love Remix).

Orange Red - Crush

The Swedes sure know how to make music. Yet another great "dream pop" band from Sweden: Orange Red. Here is the groups first single "Crush". Looking forward to hearing more of them!
Listen to "Crush" on their Bandcamp page:

FAYE - Water Against The Rocks

Destination Moscow

I will be heading to Moscow for a business trip for the next week. I´m getting in the mood here...

Dan Bodan - DP

Dan Bodan is a new DFA member. He sounds interesting! A bit like Hot Chip.

Lemonade - Diver

Lemonade´s new album is very nice! Especially "Soft Kiss" is great.

You can stream the album from True Pathers´s page or listen to it in Spotify.

Leopard Loafers

I think that I need to get myself a pair of these for the fall season. I just love them! Yes I know. I am such a sucker for leopard print.
