Beach House have written some great tunes and I’m really quite liking their sound even though it always seems just a little bit too slow (maybe like it’s been recorded after the mixing desk has had a few drinks)… still, well worth a listen.

We already knew that OK Go made kickass videos (remember the treadmills?) and they can cover other people’s songs pretty well (as shown when they covered Electric Light Orchrestra’s Don’t Bring Me Down) – well now they’ve bettered themselves by doing an alternative version of track 2 from their new album (Of The Blue Colour Of The Sky) featuring a marching band. So cool!  OK Go – This Too Shall Pass.

Kid Adrift – Oxytocin

Although this song is about watching someone you love having a brain haemorrhage it’s still very much worth listening to. Check out Kid Adrift on MySpace.

The Seventeenth Century have been described as “A Hebridian take on The Beach Boys” by tThe Daily Record and “…a band that writes illustrious music whilst their admirable naivety shines through” by The Scotsman. Definitely one to watch for 2010! Check out “Roses In The Park” their MySpace for more info.
