“Down to the Water’s Edge” with Ben de la Cour

KoralYoungLogo1ben

“Down by the Water’s Edge” is one that went straight to my sweet spot.  Why you may ask?  Ben de la Cour, at least with this single, has the stylings of The Highwaymen.  If you don’t know of the Highwaymen it was a group of country western singers that were kind of on the fringes of country music, they were Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, and Waylon Jennings.  I always loved their style when they where together or on their own and I think Ben has tapped into that same vibe.  The music video that Ben is sharing with us for “Down by the Water’s Edge” is also something I can see the Highway Men doing as well.  So if you like the Highwaymen you will dig Ben de la Cour’s “Down by the Water’s Edge” from his upcoming album Midnight in Havana.  Thanks to Ben for sharing his music video through his YouTube channel – Richard:

museKill J

Kill J is making her mark at SXSW and here with ComicPop Library.  She is sharing with our listeners her unique single “Coda” from her Quasi EP.  To me I put “Coda” in the Electronic/Pop category with some Experimental tinges thrown in for good measure.  Love the cover to her EP that is pictured above, it definitely fits with our style.  “Coda” has a strong beat with Kill J’s strong voice to support the lyrics.  It all fits together into a piece that has gotten me hooked.  I look forward to listening to the rest of her EP.  Enjoy “Coda” from Kill J’s EP Quasi through SoundCloud – Richard:

museCeaseTone

CeaseTone is making their US debut at SXSW.  This Icelandic duo is sharing with our listeners their single “The Bright Side” music video.  Even though the single is title “The Bright Side” the single has a darker tone to it.  When listening to it I really felt a Gothic dark resonance from “The Bright Side”.  The music video is one I enjoy because of the stop motion animation, but with others it will just depend on what you like.  Check out CeaseTone’s “The Bright Side” from their YouTube channel and if you are at SXSW check the schedule to see when their session is to stop in and listen to them live – Richard:
