Chad Vangaalen - Infiniheart

Infiniheart is Chad Vangaalen's first album."Maybe this is just an American's projection onto our northerly neighbors, but I imagine Chad VanGaalen knows the cold very intimately. He hails from Calgary, where he busked street corners and subways for years, gradually building up a large catalog of original songs. Using a variety of instruments and equipment-- some of which he's fashioned by hand-- the relentless DIY'er has recorded hundreds of his songs in a makeshift studio in his bedroom, where you can imagine him retreating from a frigid evening."

Dj Kicks - Erlend Øye

DJ Kicks started out in 1995 as a compilation of electronic DJ club style mixes in the techno or house genres, with the then-novel twist of being targeted to a home listening audience. It's a sequence of musical tracks typically mixed together to appear as one continuous track. This album has a lot of good mixes, even one with Erlend covering The Smiths song "There's a light that never goes out" and more.

Niño Rojo

Niño Rojo is Devendra Banhart's late 2004 release after the Rejoicing in the Hands album witch most people think is his best work. both albums were recorded on the same recording sessions so songs were devided to make two difrent albums, while Rejoicing in the Hands shows a more mature side Niño Rojo gets all the "fun songs".

And hey there, little albatross, swimming in the air
Ah c'mon, you know I can't fly
And I, I think we really oughta play fair

Summer Make Good

Summer Make Good is the third full length album from the Icelandic band Múm. This album so far is my favorite from them, it kinda takes you to another place like a dark Attic on a remote house out on the mountains witch is right where i like to be placed when i paint. The album has a mix of vast soundscapes with subtle electronic manipulations, distinctive vocals and electronic glitch beats and effects witch make it a 5 out of 5 stars for me.

Seabear

Seabear is an Icelandic indie-folk band, the band started as a one man project of Sindri Sigfússon. Seabear now has six other members, The Ghost that Carried Us Away is the debut album by the seven-member group. Im pretty sure im going to be listening to this album for a very long time, i guess the best way i can describe their sound is by describing a cool breeze in a hot sumer day while laying on the grass but dont listen to me here's a video from the band.

Efterklang is a Danish post-pop group formed in 2001. This album with very fast paste electronic splats, pats and base accompanied by horns, violins, electric guitar, drums, piano and epic choirs makes it sound like a strobe light with an orchestra inside.
