My Amazing Blog Adventure!

Probably one of the worst headlines ever... it sounds like a corny low-budget teen flick. Ehm...
Well it's been a slow week on Getting Your Goat, mostly because I haven't had the time to post anything but also because I didn't have anything special to write about. But today I was reading Soundvenue.com's blog and that started a little blog adventure...


Marina & The Diamonds
Soundvenue.com had posted 2 songs with her (apparently us danes are bit slow), I downloaded them and was completely blown away, freaking amazing stuff! I mean seriously I really digg it. As always when I find new stuff I like, I research the internet for as much info about the band/person as possible and via Elbo.ws I stumbled upon the blog THE RECOMMENDER which had an interview with Marina
Q: "is there any new bands/acts/DJ’s that have caught your attention that you would like to recommend to us?"
A: "Giantess, Ellie Goulding"
Source: The Recommender










Goulding
I followed the myspace link and listened to the songs on their page, very interesting stuff with a lot of potential + songs produced by Frankmusik! Top notch...

"Ellie Goulding likes:
- Pretty girls.

- Bon Iver.... on my back, on my bed, looking up, not thinking about much.
- Fin's always like this remix
- people sending random mixtapes- KUDOS. message me for my email.
- Elly aka La Roux.
- nike joggers. God I could wear these every day.
- Remembering how good it was to hear "You've got the love" for the first time. Candi Staton rocks my speakers.
- Staying up till the wee hours of the morning and pretending there's no one else in the whole world awake apart from me/you.
- Running. I'm doing the marathon this year.
- Sitting on the floor with my back to the wall with my legs half under the bed, drinking earl grey. Alone. Sometimes while watching Nighty Night " You do look a bit rough Sue.. but then again that chest must be exhausting"
- my new blonde hair. I like being blonde. I've been brown/red/black. but not blonde. Photos soon.
- Writing with Sam. get cape wear cape fly. he's sound as.

Ellie Goulding dislikes:

- Lady Gaga
- Ego"

Again I followed the myspace links and again very insteresting stuff kinda MGMT'ish and that's not bad at all.

Two for Thursday and a dozen for you!

Two for Thursday and a dozen for you! is a post with 6 bands and 2 songs from each band, every song is from new/soon-to-be-released albums. See the album cover, read a quote from a review/interview and download 2 songs from each album :)

The Antlers - Hospice
Myspace / Buy

The Antlers - Epilogue (mp3)

The Antlers - Wake (mp3)






Peter Silberman on making the album "Hospice"
"It's an ambitious project. Were you ever overwhelmed by it? What made it manageable?
For this one I had to work for a very long time on it. I had lot of ideas and needed to filter out the ones I didn't want, and that took a lot longer than I expected. I pieced together sounds and made sense of them and it had to take a long time. I had to obsess over it, get it all out, and get everything exactly where it needed to be. I’m taking a writing break; I’m glad to do it. I worked straight through for a long time and kind of exhausted myself, figuring out what I wanted to do and putting together the album. Now I can sit with it."

The Decemberists - The Hazards Of Love
Myspace / Buy

The Decemberists - The Hazards of Love 3 (revenge) (mp3)

The Decemberists - Won't Want For Love (Margaret In the Taiga) (mp3)




"it forms a perfect bridge between the old and the new, showing what the Decemberists are capable of, where they're capable of going and in the process reaffirms them as one of the most interesting bands of the decade."
Source: musicOMH.com

Pomegranates - Everybody, Come Outside!
Myspace / Buy

Pomegranates - Corriander (mp3)

Pomegranates - Everybody, Come Outside! (mp3)





"the music on Everybody, Come Outside! is astonishingly catchy. The album is filled with descending cosmic guitar riffs ringing with reverb set against a great rhythm section and dreamy melodies"
Source: mog.com

Phoenix - Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix
Myspace / Buy

Phoenix - 1901
(mp3)

Phoenix - Lisztomania (mp3)






""Fast and intense" is how Phoenix's lead singer Thomas Mars describes the band's next record. The Paris-based foursome are men of few words, or maybe few English words and more French ones. Either way, though they've just completed their followup to 2006's It's Never Been Like That, they're not giving away details in any language. But if the record is "fast and intense," then it sounds like it travels further down the same path as It's Never Been Like That, a rougher LP for a band whose discography was all rounded edges and glossy textures."

Brut - Art Brut vs. Satan
Myspace / Buy

Art Brut - The Passenger (mp3)

Art Brut - DC Comics and Chocolate Milkshake (mp3)





"ultimately after we've been labelled pure hatred by Art Brut we should be fighting against them, yet this album is so deliciously tight, clean and compelling we simply cannot stop listening."Source:
thisisfakediy.com

Röyksopp - Junior
Myspace / Buy

Röyksopp feat. Lykke Li - Miss It So Much (mp3)

Röyksopp feat. Robyn - The Girl And The Robot (mp3)




"Making this new album was like mining in the mountains. When you think of a mine you think of one that is already many kilometres deep, and people work inside it. But sometimes one has to start a new mine, so you start digging the crust of the earth. And we had to find a good spot to start digging."

I still have your jacket and you still have my heart...

It's not that my heart is broken at the moment, I just thought the title "I still have your jacket and you still have my heart" was a great quote which btw. is from Chimes and Bells - Stand Still, the song inspired me to post a quick post about this little thing we call love featuring fairly new songs.

I'll never drink again vol. 1

The perfect warm-up to every party is my new (hopefully) weekly mixtape.

First we have this cool version of Everything In Its Right Place:

Secondly we have a song remixed by The Shoes which means it's time to put on your dancing shoes!

March 16 is the date where La Roux new single "In for the Kill" is out in stores, but just as an early christmas you'll get it now (ungrateful bastards!)

Ever been to Sweden? Because now we'll take a short trip to sweden and visit:
Sophie Rimheden - Traveller (Porv P feat. Ledr P Remix) (mp3)

After that it's time for another swedish song:

V.V. Brown and Little Boots are apparently threatening to leave us:

and Britney Spears' Circus gets a loving hand from Tom Neville:

Next up is "Black Gold - Plans and Reveries" in a club friendly version by Tommie Sunshine (the original version was featured in Hvis musik var... vol. 39)

and Kings of Leon is remixed by the always busy CSS

Candy Coated Killahz - Playboy (Mansion Remix)...playboy+mansion was what made me listen to this song in the first place :D

Eminem gets a makeover by the Discotech which suits him incredibly well...

By now your feet should be sore or at least you'll get the perfect chance now to get blisters:

Last but not least we have yet another swedish band

Enjoy the weekend :)

Uhm...I really like it!



A couple of days ago I stumbled upon an amazing new video by the next big thing The Big Pink, but unfortunetly I couldn't find any mp3 files...
But today I found a zShare link and thought I would share the video and mp3 file with you guys and as a bonus I also added their song Too Young To Love.

Seven Sunday Slammers

Et nyt tiltag her på bloggen er at jeg hver søndag vil poste Seven Sunday Slammers, et indlæg med 7 sange som jeg føler omverdenen skal kende til. Det vil for det meste være sange som jeg ikke har kunne få plads til i Hvis musik var.... Coverbilledet har ikke rigtig noget som helst med noget at gøre, synes bare det er et godt billede fra Roskilde Festival :D

Lykke Li - Tonight (mp3)
Første nummer er med svenske Lykke Li og en ny version af hendes dejlige sang Tonight, den originale var jeg vild med i juli måned 2007, hvor jeg konstant besøgte hendes myspace side for at se om hun havde uploadet nyt musik. Senere udkom hun med cd'en Youth Novels med en mastered version med percussion og hvad ved jeg. Nu har hun udsendt Tonight i en ny version som efter min mening er den bedste og smukekste hidtil.

Jenny Wilson - The Wooden Chair (mp3)
""The Wooden Chair," with its accompanying video are dark, hurting things that scurry across the floor when the light comes on. Again, someone needs to figure out what they are drinking in Sweden"

I Monster - A Sucker For Your Sound (mp3)
"The pair have been far from quiet over the last few years. In between journeying to the centre of the earth, vampire hunting and building kitchen extensions, they’ve co-written and produced tracks on both Finnish artist HK119's and Roisin Murphy’s new albums, spent some time in the studio with queen of pop Cathy Dennis and worked on rapper Lupe Fiasco's Grammy winning 'Daydreamin'' single, the track based entirely on their big hit 'Daydream In Blue'"

The William Blakes - The Thing We All Believe In (mp3)
"- Bandet er samlet af barndomsvennerne Kristian Leth, søn af forfatteren og Tour de France kommentatoren Jørgen Leth, samt brødrene Frederik og Fridolin Nordsø, sønner af Sneakers og Acoustic Guitars guitaristen Mikkel Nordsø.
- Bandet debuterede i april 2008 med albummet ’Wayne Coyne’, opkaldt efter Flaming Lips’ forsanger. Flere medier udråbte ’Wayne Coyne til at være et af årets bedste danske album.
- Nordsø brødrene producerer og skriver begge for både danske og internationale kunstnere.
- Begge The William Blakes album er blevet til ved, at medlemmerne har arbejdet på den samme sang på samme tid, men i hvert deres studie."
