SPOT Festival 2012 (05-05-2012) - DAY 2

SPOT Festival 2012 - DAY 2

I was moving the writing and translation of this post for later. Because the moment it will be finished would be the moment when Spot Festival 2012 ends for me for real. So... it's now. The second day in Aarhus, Saturday, was wonderful. First, lovely shows during Spot DAYPARTY (you can read about them HERE), than... musical heaven. Seriously. Heaven.

WHEN SAINTS GO MACHINE - Mannequin [NEWS]

When Saitns Go Machine - Mannequin

WHEN SAINTS GO MACHINE released their new single. The song is called "Mannequin" and you can stream it on the webside of Danish radio P3.

WHEN SAINTS GO MACHINE - MANNEQUIN (Radio P3)

Original atmosphere, still the same characteristic vocal and uniqe, specifil dreamy-style. The song ends pretty unexpectedly... we're waiting for more..

SPOT Festival 2012 (05-05-2012): NAKED - a singer and a piano

NAKED - a singer and a piano

Musikhuset. Lille Sal. That's where Spot Festival 2012 NAKED project concerts took place twice - on Friday and on Saturday. Four Danish singers: Ane Trolle, Silas Bjerregaard (Turboweekend), Clara Sofie and Johan Olsen (Magtens Korridorer) and Swedish pianist: Gustaf Ljunggren. Magic.

ROSA LUX - Monsters (feat. Randi Laubek) [LISTEN TO IT!]

Rosa Lux - Monsters (feat. Randi Laubek) 

Rosa Lux charms the electronic. With sense, with taste. She simply has a gift.  "Monsters" is the best example of it.

SPOT Festival 2012 (05-05-2012) - Spot DAYPARTY @V58

SPOT DAYPARTY @V58

Deep breath and... after Spot Festival 2012 DAY 1... day 2 came. It's Saturday morning. Well... to that "morning" maybe, because 11:15 is closer to noon. Aarhus is sunny and windy (the wind makes it sooooooo cold, but that's ok). People are gathering around at the V58 yard. They're sitting down on big pillows, drinking beer and enjoying the light and nice music. Spot DAYPARTY. It is "day" and it is a "party". It's also lovely. Who's playing?

SHAKA LOVELESS - Tomgang [LISTEN TO IT!]

Shaka Loveless - Tomgang

Everytime when I listen to the song sang in Danish that I like, I have mixed feelings. It's a mix of joy and shame. Joy from the fact that I like the song and shame from the fact that I don't speak a word in Danish. You'll probably think - so why the heck (or any other shock-asking sentence) a blog about the Danish music without knowing Danish? Well, there's no good explanation to this queation. I promise to work on my Danish... someday... Now, I just listen to it, and listen to it and I really like Shaka Loveless song "Tomgang".

SPOT Festival 2012 (04-05-2012) - DAY 1

SPOT Festival 2012 - DAY 1

SPOT Festival in Aarhus = Danish and Scandinavian music at their best. Two days with amazing artists, great atmosphere and huge amount of concerts. Good, because Danish didn't make it to see all that should be seen, but there were some quite good shows. Time to share the experience on the blog.


BTW - this is a shorter version of the report from DAY 1 in Polish, which you can fine HERE.

GIANA FACTORY @HBC, Berlin 02-05-2012 [concerts, interviews]

Giana Factory - the concert and short interview

Trio Giana Factory was in Belin on Wednesday 02-05-2012. "Good, because Danish" was in Berlin as well at their concert at HBC venue. How was it? Quite good. How was the short interview after the show? Listen to yourself...

Kúra - "Halfway to the Moon" [REVIEW]

Kúra- "Halfway to the Moon"

author: Nona Karnowska (soundcheck)

The debut album of the Danish-Icelandic trio Kúra was released on the 30th of April. It’s entitled “Halfway To The Moon” and contains 10 minimalistic, electronic tracks. It’s a great debut that proves that the Scandinavian music scene is as strong as ever.

The album, as a whole, is very consistent and even, like a properly composed and realized plan. But let’s start from the beginning…

LYDMOR - "A LOT OF LOVE" [SPECIAL]

Lydmor - "A lot of Love"

no. 6 from the debut album "A Pile of Empty Tapes"

 

Something good will see the light of day on the 7th of May. That's when LYDMOR's debut album "A Pile of Empty Tapes" is coming out. Lydmor decided to share songs from it with her fans earlier. From five days she does it through various music blogs. Every day one of Lydmor's songs appears on a different webside. Today no. 6 - "A lot of Love" - has its premiere on a blog "Good, because Danish".
