Tschabba - Tschai (2009)
Jamendo
8.8
8.8
/P-funk, Art-funk, Hip-hop, Crossover, Acid jazz, Fusion, Afro funk, Urban music, Chill out/
Comment: This 10-track album comes out from Idar-Oberstein, Germany. T Brendel jr has done good job working out P-funk and art-funk, bossa nova ideology and hip-hop/scratch overthrows, slightly opened Latin rhythms and decent acid jazz influences, always frabjously functioning psychedelic afrofuturistic progressions and mellow chill out elaborations into the seamlessly, synergically sounding whole. Indeed, lots of using of reed organ-based backdrops and different kinds of breaks and pipes. Enjoy and blaring it out.
Alligator Indian - Beko_92 (2011)
/Post-punk, Psychedelia, Alternative pop/rock, Garage rock, Gothic, DIY, Experimental indie/
Comment: Asheville-based combo (of two guys and one gal) Alligator Indian (formerly known as Eleven and the Falcons) provides an exhilarating jaunt of garage rock over to its punk-ish (and post-punk-ish/gothic) and psychedelic roots of the 70`s, and even some bristled jangle pop action lines (a la the Pastels sometimes). It reminds a bit of Slutever, Best Coast, and Vivian Girls, and Electrelane (if to compare it to their contemporaries). Stay tuned for the collective`s future publications.
Nac/Hut Report - 9th Overflowing...Milky Slaughterhouse...Dream of Incubator (2010)
/Post-punk, Industrial rock, Alternative pop/rock, Gothic rock, Experimental rock/
Comment: Nac/Hut Report, a duo consisting of Brigitte Roussel (voice, noise, electronics), and Li/ese/Li (guitar, noise, electronics) offers an exquisite set of 9 tracks based on a blend of galvanized post-punk-ish rigidness, and elliptical industrial rock-ish soundscape/and dense beat frequency, gothic danceability and beautiful melody hooks. A decorous and catchy one at once, experimental and pop-ish at the same time. They are not giving shit at all.

A Tribute to Club Tropicana vol.2 (2011)
/Glo-fi, Dream pop, Experimental indie, Crossover, Tropical pop, Electronic pop, Art-pop, Alternative, Post-punk/
Comment: In fact, the French-based label Beko DSL used not to be the single-only label anymore. Reno`s curated label has issued a handful of EP`s and compilations during the last year. A series of Club Tropicana has got the sophomore notch recently. This is a solid 17-track miscellany of glo-fi (this time it is possible to avoid using the stylistic term “chillwave”) and electronic-driven indie pop, noble post-punk progressions and autotuned electronic pop, Ariel Pink-esque art pop and heartbreaking dream pop, and lots sorts of crossovers inbetween them. And of course, tropicalia pop as well (having not depending on the fact is it either the kind of purely subtantial or relational/contingent definition). All in all, listen to the compilations of such labels as Beko DSL, Holiday Records, and Eardrums Pop, it is the easiest way to find out exemplary indie music for yourself. Through this compilation showcases Beko DSL itself to be related to the Free Music Archive (a music site per excellence!) either.
Zastranienie – Manifest Za Radio I TV (2010)
/Electronic pop, Breakbeat, Avant-garde, Electro pop, Crossover, Experimental electronica, Spoken word, Primitive pop, Weird, Poptronica, Freeformfreakout, Experimentalism, Child music, Techno pop/
Comment: This is an EP by a duo (Boško & Ida) from Belgrade, Serbia which has issued four singles at Free Music Archive. Blissful, exuberant synthesizer chords are laced with dashing rhythm progressions in the backdrop; or bleak, abrasive vocal-soaked ambiences functioning instrumentally as weird introduction and background for high-tempered techno pop/breakbeat; or infantile, exorcized electro pop (the main melody hook of it reminds of one of the children ring games in Estonia) which later will be juxtaposed to tranquilized spoken word and lush electronic manifestos. In conclusion, this is an really frenetic and idiosyncratic electronic music outcome which begins to love you (ha-ha!).
