Trentemøller on KEXP



I was on a late-night scroll when KEXP’s brand-new session popped into my feed, and I’m so glad I pressed play. Danish sound-designer Anders Trentemøller turns up with a razor-tight five-piece—he handles guitar and synths, Icelandic singer Dísa drifts at center stage, backed by bass, drums, and a guitar/keys multitasker. Tracked 11 Feb 2025 and posted in April, the 23-minute set bottles the widescreen tension of his current tour.

They open with “I Give My Tears”: woozy bass, gated snares, then a shoegaze blast that floods the room. “Dreamweavers” starts as short-wave hiss, locates a heartbeat pulse, and finally soars into a synth-pop sunrise that’s sad yet strangely hopeful. “Nightfall” circles a dusk-lit guitar loop; Dísa’s gauzy vocal floats until the band swells into full cinematic drama. For the finale they time-warp to 2013 with “Still On Fire,” ripping off the dream-pop gauze—industrial kicks, serrated bass, cold-wave guitars igniting dark-club euphoria. KEXP’s mix captures every analog echo and tom rattle, so cue the headphones. If you drifted from Trentemøller after Lost, this video is a perfect reason to dive back in—and share it forward.

New Music by MUZORAMA / Rediscovering the Joy of Music



After a long hiatus, I finally found time this weekend to dive back into one of my favorite pastimes: curating innovative music videos. This fresh playlist spans a diverse range of genres, showcasing the incredible creativity in today's music scene.

From the indie folk musings of Goldie Boutilier to the alt-pop brilliance of Nilüfer Yanya, the selection covers expansive musical ground. We journey through electronic landscapes with RÜFÜS DU SOL, explore jazz fusion with Ezra Collective, and delve into soulful territories with Michael Kiwanuka.

The videos themselves are a feast for the eyes, ranging from surreal narratives to minimalist visualizers. Whether it's the genre-bending sounds of Glass Beams' raga-disco fusion or the raw energy of Remi Wolf's quirky pop, each entry offers something fresh and exciting.

This eclectic mix reminds us why music videos remain a vital art form, pushing the boundaries of both sound and vision. Dive in and rediscover the magic of innovative music and visuals.

Ai Review: flypaper - "old friend"


In a landscape teeming with auditory experiences, flypaper's latest single "old friend" emerges as a poignant chronicle of relational ebbs and flows. Rory Sear, the creative force behind flypaper, once again captures the essence of indie rock's introspective side with a track that delves deep into the heart of change, longing, and the timeless dance of friendship.  "old friend" is an odyssey through the realms of nostalgia, uncertainty, and hope, masterfully encapsulated within the confines of a four-minute musical journey. The song’s reflective and somewhat melancholic tone is immediately engaging, drawing listeners into a narrative that is both personal and universally relatable. The narrative probes the resilience of connections as they weather the storms of distance and life's inevitable challenges. With an undercurrent of nostalgia and a palpable longing for a return to simpler times, Sear navigates the complexities of human relationships with a delicate precision that is both moving and profound.  Musically, "old friend" straddles various genres, comfortably situating itself in the interstices of indie rock, alternative rock, and pop rock, with touches of indie pop and dream pop. Its lo-fi and shoegaze elements add layers of texture, creating an immersive soundscape that complements the song's thematic depth. The choice of instruments – guitar, drums, bass, synthesizer, and piano – works in harmony to evoke a mood that is simultaneously melancholic, reflective, intimate, nostalgic, and peaceful.

flypaper's new EP another orbit is due out May 10 via PNKSLM Recordings
