![Membrain - Sit Back, Rewind [EP]](/thumbs/post/485x231/UsA5s4.png)
Before the release of Visions, Canada's experimental pop princess Claire Boucher of Grimes collaborated with Cop Car Bonfire's Tim Lafontaine and called themselves Membrain. Facebook says Cop Car Bonfire is "crunked out club" music so you can just imagine the wild electronic beats from Lafontaine as he mingles with Boucher's playful utterances. Their work together is compiled on an EP titled Sit Back, Rewind, which is due later this year. Not much information is given on the actual release but their soundcloud...
A few weeks ago I introduced you to SPLASHH, a surf pop outfit off Art is Hard records that's really making waves in the blogosphere. Well, now their labelmates Best Friends are having a big release, their new record Throwing Up comes out tomorrow, so head on over to Art Is Hard's Tumblr and pre-order that shit (shit being a good thing). Their FREE track "Wasting Time" is more than just beachy-laziness with lo-fi vox, it's an incredibly clever song with some fun melodies shared between the guitar and voice, "you...
Much has happened since the last time we heard from Calvin McElroy's independent project, Kuhrye-oo. To refresh your memory, McElroy is part of Canada's hyperactive trio Born Gold and all three members are supporting Grimes' live band. Kuhrye-oo separates McElroy from the hectic touring of Born...

A couple of days ago I introduced you to the surfy-garage-rock UK-ers Splashh, and I'm happy to say they've done it again. Six summer tracks in under a month (if they aren't working towards a record, I don't know what they're doing). I'm just going to keep listening and pray this prolific streak...

Beach House meets Wavves, that's all I have to say. Splashh has been releasing tracks intermittently for the past three weeks, starting with "Lemonade" and "Washed Up" on the 26th of February, then "All I Wanna Do" on the 27th, and finally "Feels Like You" last Thursday (the 8th). The...

As mentioned late last year, Liam Sanagan--who creates music as LUM--isolated himself in a rural cottage this winter to record his debut full-length album. LUM plans to have the album finished by the fall of 2012, but he has snuck a preview of a couple of the tracks from the project into a...
