posted on 18.04.10 New Miike Snow - Billie Holiday

Check the new Miike Snow track.

Billie Holiday was previously only available as a hidden track on the UK version of the debut album, but it was also just released on the “Deluxe Edition” world wide. We were big fans in 2009, and happy to see the momentum continue in 2010.

posted on 29.01.10 Favorite Artist of Oh Nine :: Miike Snow

Its fairly unanimous up here in the BDN cloud, Miike Snow was our favorite artist of 2009.  While last years efforts by Phoenix, Florence and the Machine, Curren$y, Empire of the Sun, Passion Pit, Major Lazer, Little Boots, La Roux and DatA sit at the top of our list, Miike Snow takes the crown.  Their self titled release is a masterful collection from start to finish and the many remixes it has spawned only continue the journey into their unique sound.  Check out this club ready remix of Silvia that is my personal favorite and be sure to turn it up to 11.

These two banger Vampire Weekend remixes recently made it into the top 5 of Hype Machine’s popular 100.  When you think about it, these kids really don’t stand a chance do they Wayne.  Nope.  Line em up.

I caught the Miike Snow (click for all BDN coverage) show in ‘The City’ earlier this week, and Jack Peñate put on a fun opening set. It is also worth noting Miike Snow stopped using an autotuner in their live performances.

Jack Peñate has definitely got an eccentric British musician thing going on, as revealed in his videos below. The ‘Pull My Heart Away’ video was shot in the same location as Indian Jones Raiders of the Lost Arc - And who doesn’t love that?

posted on 27.07.09 Music Videos of the Week #1

Remember when MTV actually played music videos, ones that you even liked?  Well, in memory of the many things that have come and gone (R.I.P. Mike) we’ve saved you the effort of trying to find MTV 8 on the TV and will be showcasing a short playlist of handpicked music videos we appreciate.

Week 1:

Big Sean - Getcha Some (Dir. Hype Williams) : Fresh visuals paired with a catchy track off the upcoming album “Finally Famous” (look for Kanye)

Miike Snow - Burial : Great video, will get your travel bug itching

Kyle Andrews - Sushi : Fun song, funner video.  Click on the video at any time and it will link you to one of over 1000 youtube jems that were used to create the mosaic, the ultimate youtube time waster.

Empire of the Sun - We Are The People : Same poppy sound, same crazy outfits, now in the desert.

Birdy Nam Nam - Parachute Ending : Visually amazing, highly creative interpretation of the song, just stay off any drugs while watching, may lead to a seizure.

-If you have any video suggestions or want to see your own music video here, let us know!-
