The people who make things happen.
A journal that I will rarely, if ever, update.

I got some mp3s from self-described “alternative electro pop” musicians I’m not a Band in the email machine a few weeks back.
They are German, and I took four years of German in high school, so I really “get” them, you know?
In all honesty, I was never much for electronic-based stuff, but I like that their songs get to the point and don’t drone on and on, i.e. you are not required to take ex to enjoy this band. Though I imagine, like all electronic stuff, it wouldn’t hurt.
So, come, let’s listen! Now! Beeilen wir uns!
- “This is it” [download mp3]
I think is my favorite of the two they sent along, which is surprising since it’s longer and instrumental. But I think it’s more melodic. It sounds a little bit like maybe Mannheim Steamroller, after recording a rousing rendition of “Deck the Halls”, left their studio unattended, and their mid-20s kids snuck in and decided to jam a little bit. This one also uses more violin than the other, which is nice.
- “Crazy” [download mp3]
This is a bit Elastica-y. Which is a good thing in my eyes. No, actually the Elastica-ness of it is a great thing. The music behind it moves quick, like I mention, but veers a little too close to drone-iness for me. Still, I like it.
