LIPS. Part 2

Founded in New Zealand, this LIPS features solo artist Stephanie Brown. With her soothing voice and beautiful vocals, she manages to capture all the nuances of life into song form. One of her more recent singles, Everything To Me, has just that. With amazing lyrics, while slipping in a bit of humour, I have started to find Stephanie to be one of my most favourite song-writers.

LIPS - Everything To Me


Lyrics:

It would mean everything to me if we could take a holiday
Cos you and I bone tired every night isn't my idea of play
And even our smallest dream is getting lean, never sees the light of day
So it would mean everything to me

You can fight but you won't always win
Somehow life finds a way to beat you
But I'll come join you in the ring
Guess it shows just how much i need you

There are days I would pay anything just to leave it all behind
There are times I can't find any light to get me through the daily grind
I know you feel it too, seen just how long it takes you to unwind
So it would mean everything to me

And her newest single:
LIPS - Ghosts and Demons

LIPS. Part 1

To my great confusion, and after listening to music by apparently, two different bands with the same name. For part one, I introduce LIPS, and electro-pop band from Denmark. Sounding very closely the same with Elly Jackson, the lead of her English electro-pop band, La Roux, Loa has managed to keep me listening to her several times on repeat.

If you love listening to La Roux, you will LOVE this band.

LIPS - A Million Ways


LIPS - Everytime

Blue Gowns

A song from Montreal band, Blue Hawaii. Enjoy!

Daughter

At only 21 years old, Daughter's Elena Tonra and her guitarist boyfriend, Igor Haefeli, have been making a quiet but large splash in the music scene. Using many strange, yet mesmerizing sounds, Elena adds a beautiful touch to what her voice already offers to the world of acoustic folk.

With her opening song, Landfill sets the mood for the rest of her album, His Young Heart. This song, with its strong buildup into an absolutely electric chorus has personally sent chills down my spine and has had me listening to her endlessly on repeat.

Here is a copy of the song Landfill, but you can listen to the rest of the EP, here
Daughter - Landfill


And another song from her more recent EP:
Daughter - Love

Love U More

The newest from Sunday Girl

I think I love her too much.

Human Love

Love, love, LOVE this song.

More from Sunday Girl.

for a non remixed version:

Video Games

I've posted up Lana Del Ray a few months ago, but I recently found this song. Check it out.

Invisible

This name you've probably heard before if you listen to Lupe Fiasco or Rihanna or Eminem. Skylar Grey has been catching some attention with her big music collaborations. Lately she's been coming out with some of her own music which sounds pretty catchy, so listen to some of her stuff. Only two singles out with no mention of an album, but here you go.

Skylar Grey - Invisible

Skylar Grey - Dance Without You

Shooting Stars

Still some time away before I get back into this full time, but I thought I'd share another of my favourites. I've put some Kris Menace up on here a while ago, and I should probably do a feature, but maybe another time. In all seriousness, find some of his music if you have time. He keeps it quite simple but I'd still put him near the top of my favourite DJs. This is a remix of Bag Raiders' Shooting Stars. Yeah, and check them out too!

Kris Menace - Shooting Star

Austra

I cant believe I've been away from my blog for the past month and a half. I've been far too detached from my music due in part to a ton of things, but I'll be back soon! For now I'll be posting up some songs on their own until I pick up my own pace and start downloading again.
"Dont wanna lose ya!"

Austra - Lose It
