FF: Mountain Man



Quite possibly some of the best acoustic, a Capella, & female vocals that I've heard this year thus far. Mountain Man blew my away with their single 'Soft Skin' and with further investigation I've come to really appreciate this rustic ambiance. Simple music that is absolutely beautiful. Their 2010 album 'Made The Harbor' has easily become one of my favorite new albums for the year thus far. Here's my selections for best tracks.


Mountain Man - Soft Skin <33333
Mountain Man - Animal Tracks <3333
Mountain Man - Dog Song <3333
Mountain Man - White Heron <333


and of course 'River'<3<3<3<3 pick up the album asap!!

FF: Twin Sister



OKAY having no interwebs at home SUCKS >: ( I'm sorry dear followers
I'm at the library now cause I'm broke and what not lalala you get the picture.
Also in other news I'll be returning to the great plains come july-august. I've applied for a design & photography course at Grant McEwan in Edmonton and plan to log in a year or so there and see if I can transfer back to Vancity in the future. Need to buckle down and get shit done, and certainly this can never happen in this busy city with my night life and such. Will miss you ocean & mountains & so forth, but it's time to make a change.

Moving on to my friday favorite (on a tuesday? ya oh well it's bound to happen for the next month or so, I'm sorry again)
I know I've posted a decent chunk of Twin Sister before and in my former blog, but I'd like to group all of their greatness in detail right now! Somewhat similar to the sounds of Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, Beach House & Memory Cassette, their dream-pop stylings have brought them massive blog love via Gorilla vs. Bear, Pitchfork, and so forth.
