A Tribute to The Lucksmiths
Thanks to Enzo's post in Facebook, it reminded me of Lucksmiths' best music. The Lucksmiths were an indie pop band from Melbourne, Australia, they played catchy melody and jangly pop masterpieces, they disbanded in 2009. They are surely missed.
Manila's indie pop finest artists made a tribute to the band some time ago titled "Music to Hold Hands to" with The Lucksmiths' delicious pop sound, a 21-track free download in Bandcamp. This is a compilation that you'll listen to no matter what year it is and some what a best mix while driving.
Here's to everyone in the world!

Carnival Park
I caught this band off in early 2000 mixtape which I got from a friend. After a few listens I know this band is right up in my alley. I followed their Myspace and Facebook for news, they did a few gigs and for some reason have been quiet for some time until a 3-track Demo for their upcoming album came out. Note that I haven't gotten to see any of their shows. Boo me. Okay, I might need to make a schedule to check them out one day.
Carnival Park's "This Feels like Summer" is totally sounding pop, reminds me of The Sundays on this track. "I Know the Steps to this Dance" song has an atmosphere which is open with their instruments, mellow and nostalgic. With their songs, I always feel like they will be more enjoyed while lying on your back looking up the clouds before sunset or watching the stars at night.
I think they are currently working on the album coming out soon, I'll certainly be checking their site for updates: Facebook, Bandcamp.
Here's a taste of This Feels Like Summer. Enjoy!
Free Taste by Oblong
Man, It's been a while. What happened? I don't know. Got bored and focused on my other hobby which is figure collecting.
Okay, this is supposed to be about the artist. Oblong has been around in early Overtune Project days and being featured in this blog is way overdue.
Oblong's Free Taste EP was digitally released last February this year. It has 2 new songs and 2 fillers, Lo-fi, raw and sweet all recorded from analog recorder. The songs are quite different from his earlier ones proving it's unique style of sound hasn't been lost. Mark's pop-melodic tunes fit in distorted electric guitar riffs and a thumping drum machine beats, enough not to give you musical toothaches my friends.
For now, you can visit Oblong on Facebook and download EP for free on Bandcamp.
