Brooklyn’s Crystal Stilts recently recorded a session over at Daytrotter, which along with a few tracks from last year’s debut Alight of Night, also featured two new tracks from the band. Both “Through the Floor” and “Sycamore Tree” are delightful to listen to, that is, if you find a poppier version of Joy Division enjoyable. The latter is even described as “graveyard dance music,” so there you go. Head over to Daytrotter to download the entire session.

eardrums

I guess that was enough of a segue, as I want to bring up a little something that I should’ve mentioned much earlier: The newest Eardrums compilation from our pal Knut. Each new compilation, which seems to be released every season, always happens to provide a healthy dose of fresh pop songs. Head over there and download the first of four volumes, with the following to be released periodically. Here’s a little taste of what you can expect, as Birdsongs, Beesongs includes a new track from Hari and Aino that you can hear for yourself below. Did I also mention that these are free? Can’t beat that!

MP3: Hari and Aino :: “On My Usual Catch Up With Cecilia”
