I was really happy to buy Park Joon Hyuk's 2nd album, Human Life, yesterday at Soribada. It had been such a long time since I had last heard any songs from him so it was great to refresh my memory and realize that he is one amazing artist. It's not a surprise though that he is able to deliver such magnificent music - after all, he is under the ( Read more... )

I was really delighted to find some new rock music this weekend. A band named Peacock Green released their first self-titled mini album on 25th of this month. Filled with melodic rock and some more melancholic songs, I think Peacock Green's release is definitely something that every friend of indie rock music should check out.

My favorite out of the ( Read more... )

I would like to dedicate this post to an artist called 달빛요정역전만루홈런 (in English: "A moonlight fairy's come back with a grand slam home run") aka Lee Jin Won, who passed away on 6th November 2010 at the young age of 37. The news came to me as a surprise because I had only a while before his death got to know some of his albums. I think he delivered ( Read more... )

I fell for Trampauline when I first heard their song Dreaming of White Christmas that was included in a christmas compilation album by Pastel Music (Merry Lonely Christmas and Happy New Year). I was so excited to hear experimental christmas music instead of the usual carols. The thing I love about the whole compilation album (and especially ( Read more... )

I've become a huge fan of Last.fm - ever since last summer I've been "scrobbling" every single track I listen to while being on the computer. I listen to a lot of random songs that I actually don't like much BUT my Last.fm chart gives, though, a really good overall image of the music I like to listen to.

Last week my top weekly artists were:

Now, I'm not sure if I'm a huge fan of 10cm but they do have catchy songs that (un)fortunately get stuck in my head.

곱슬머리 (Curls) is one of those songs. It was released in their first full album, 1.0, just few days ago. I think it's my favorite out of the album, just because the chorus is really catchy. It has that country music feeling a bit, just ( Read more... )

Good morning, this is Finland calling you to wake up or take a break of whatever you doing!

Last month, I convinced myself that a band called Pennylane was definitely the discovery of the month! This group has the kind of music I really need at the moment - both mellow and melancholic, kind of easy-listening rock. I love that they sing some of their ( Read more... )

Since I'm back to business, here's a sort of "preview" of the kind of music I will post in the future.

A magnificent electronica artist - Postino. Never heard? Well, guess what, he is actually the first Korean DJ to top some DJ charts in EUROPE; now that's something! Check out wikipedia page of him for more. I will quote the Wikipage a bit, since I ( Read more... )

The best album I've found in a while is definitely Creamchou's Shining Love. All the songs are awesome and have a great sound with either pop rock, electronica or pop rock-turned-electronica sound. Plus the main vocal is lovely.

This song is called Lucky Star - I love it because it has a very cheerful / spring-like sound. This is also pop rock & ( Read more... )

I want to post something psychedelic today. Something that erases everything else out of my mind for a moment.

I have already expressed my deep love for Nell over here. One simply cannot HATE Nell's music. Their style of music is my favorite. Nell's songs always have a meaning and they touch deeply my soul. It's Okay is actually a pretty simple song ( Read more... )
