Them are exploratory beats at the start so it was clear from early doors that ‘Tragedy of Discovery’ would be offering us up something a little differe… Read More

mp3hugger is an indie music blog that offers mp3 downloads from the best new bands and some from the past that you may have missed.
It was to Mercury Rev that my remembrances turned on hearing the psychedelic swirl of those early ‘Speak in the Day’ passages. Seems that Hello Echo ha… Read More
The tick-tock is-that-a-clock momentum is definitely one thing that sets ‘Time Takes Time’ apart but the real joy is a vocal that portrays an innocent… Read More
Talk about screeching guitars, bass chords offering a lining for our stomach but the general snarl of Witches in the Dark will not be softened. So Dumb Crush get our attention and in a fash… Read More
You know I am absolutely over the moon that punk is having a moment again because for the most part its contemporary proponents are proving to be so loyal to the original cause. To the grow… Read More
At first it is barely perceptible but ‘Little Red, Little Blue’ from Dutch artist Lieke Heusinkveld has such an inner glow that we soon were feeling li… Read More
‘Love Me’ has the psychedelic behaviour of a sixties song, fulsome of a set of navigators (it is just one, Melbourne’s Harry Prior)… Read More
A slow waltz, the kind that is made for late evening intimate discourse where matters need to be tended to, unravelled and put in their right place. And even if things donâ€&trad… Read More
There is an off-centre feel to the percussive elements but in this Belgian act’s hands that just adds to the grandeur. ‘Winston’ has… Read More
An opening like that is welcome and that is down to the way Oxford’s Danny Mellin has chords deployed that are loose and ready to confront all-comers. A bit like the way… Read More
Sure does have a bubbling under performance art quality, a voice that will always draw the ears closer to full-on attention. ‘Lady in Waiting’ has char… Read More
Very subtle stuff, from that pastoral opening to the jazz leaning indie pop vocals. There is tender scenery of some repute getting down and while I’d often pair that kind… Read More
The thing with Colatura is that they expect that your attention is true, otherwise you are going to miss the stuff that is happening away from the surface. It is perhaps the reason why song… Read More
It had me stuck between Explosions in the Sky and Sabres of Paradise as there is reverb there that could turn all groovy or meditative depending on Seadreams direction of travel. Turns out… Read More
‘Cruise Control’ arrived at our door fully formed, stride had been hit so Local the Neighbour were up against it to retain that sense of urgency and gr… Read More
There was little doubt that we were headed for anthemic guitar led fare on ‘Tsunami’ but that was just the start of it because at the helm is a singer… Read More
I put it down to a combination of age and some maturity that alt pop is increasingly winning me over and the latest example is this piece of purity from Summer Winter. Of course the trick i… Read More
It felt all the world like we were bathing in something Panda Bear here so ‘Normal Harder’ does something that taps into an innocence and a psychedelic… Read More
You know as autumn and winter rolls in so do the songs that get with that feeling and so I wasn’t in the least bit surprised that Chicago folkster Mirabelle Skipworth con… Read More
A band from Des Moines with such consistency we can almost predict that each new release will be a match for the niche of niches that is our music taste. And ‘Colors Talk… Read More
You know the first thing this track had me thinking is that ‘Boston’ would have sit so effortlessly on the Holdovers movie soundtrack from last year. B… Read More
I haven’t been drinking for a few days but London bard Jake Aaron provides lots of encouragement to change all that with his ‘Watery Moon  Read More
Now that feels like an act who know how to evoke a laidback, relaxed charm and in the face of turmoil happening all around. Ireland’s Culture Kid operate so effortlessly… Read More
A most different kind of proposition alright, oddly calming despite the oddness. And that can be attributed to the charming way that Mother Iguana (AKA Mac Holmes) builds this composition w… Read More
Intricate indie pop fare from Marika Justad and Toby Kuhn of Tangerine, but then you’d expect a juicy sweetness from a band named as such surely! And ‘… Read More
There is a virility to those chords, proper searing an impression into our psyche, a bit of Fontaine’s D.C. too insofar as the words crash and burn before our ears and in… Read More
‘Lose Control’ exhibits a strut, a peacock style strut in fact such is the arch rock plumage. Chapel of Roses also have a fun side too, to a degree tha… Read More
There’s a psychedelic drift here that has a dream pop frequency but you can tell that the Reflections (two identical brothers based out of Brooklyn) were never going to m… Read More
Vintage stuff to set the tone and Lovely Assistant keep an easy manner right the way through. This is redolent of Elbow and Badly Drawn Boy for me, aiming for quiet anthemic status with a w… Read More
Sure is a creaking door in the middle of the night atmosphere about ‘Pay No Mind’ and given we’re entering peak buildup to October 3… Read More
It might be slowly turned out but ‘Forget to Lose’ is evocative stuff, the jangle and vocal waltzing moving in time so it could be a brand new take on… Read More
About 20 seconds in on ‘Through This Tonight’ does an about turn that I wasn’t expecting at all. And it adds the charm to proceeding… Read More
Despite being on the go since 1997 it is clear that Chicago’s Califone (Tim Rutili and friends) have lost none of youthful vigour. This is intense 90’s… Read More
There is an arm around the shoulder kind of consistency to Venice Heath’s ‘Why Always On My Mind’, it has a heavy breathing opening… Read More
Was giving me some Paul McCartney flashbacks I must admit but given the narrative it seems we’re more into an early noughties state of affairs. When the dam bursts and ou… Read More
Arbes are producing subtlety here, like a jam or a warm-up before things skyrocket and ‘One Metaphor’ sure does have that capacity in its locker as thi… Read More
A shuffle for sure, the kind that has something of the slacker acts of the 90’s in there and it had me thinking the Lemonheads for the most part. Perhaps Niall Summerton… Read More
Crikey this track made it feel as if we were back in Grand Prix territory from the fabled Scottish indie poppers Teenage Fanclub. And Hartlepool’s Mt. Misery donâ&e… Read More
A slow kind of acoustic grunge effect and so ‘Grow Up’ had us attuned to its mischievous approach. There is a deep down and slightly dirty nature to Ja… Read More
Talk about colouring the night with all sorts of psychedelic romancing and in a fashion that most reminds me of Simon & Garfunkel so we get a sepia-tinged image of love from the good ol… Read More
A punishing beat, a propulsion that has both New Order and U2 as its calling card but French new wave act Fugue go one step further in going full-on Blondie. So we’re dee… Read More
Talk about loose and as lounge as can be, LA’s T. Soomian is playing us for old romantics and including plenty of the Beach Boys while they are at it. So it  Read More
Sounded like an ice-cream van to me and as memories from childhood go that is one big fat happy one. So Bobby Hartry as Min Min Light sets the scene on some joyous sepia-tinged feelings and… Read More
They sure do have a way with a post-punk sound, throwing shapes that are off-kilter to a fault and amid all the molten riffage a singer (Melanie Giselle) holds court with unconventional mel… Read More
Though they play it quite and demure it is clear that Germany’s Neighbour follow their own lead, so there is a slightly unconventional manner to ‘Video… Read More
Always expect the unexpected from NYC’s JW Francis and the beat filled opening on ‘Feel It’ sure does have the capacity of getting t… Read More
Makes for a moving work that’s for sure, that was my initial thought as the tender arrangement built from that heartrending opening. Swirling electronic textures and rock… Read More
This is pop varnished with a rare sparkle, I had a bit of a Bjork flashback early on and later then one from the Mummers too. So our kind of territory even if ‘Transition… Read More
That is some collaboration so I wasn’t in the least bit surprised that something entirely dreamy emerged, not your drippy kind either as ‘Dead Malls&ac… Read More
I got the feeling early on, the trigger warning that ‘Refugee Citizen’ could be a classic of the kind. The 90’s indie rapture sort t… Read More
Didn’t even need the words to know that there was a rumble through the vagaries of a full/empty/listing heart. On paper it might have beeb a hard one to keep us on board… Read More
If you were to poll one hundred people to describe ‘1999 (Cherry)’ in one word I would say ‘loud’ would be the ch… Read More
