Klaus Johann Grobe – what a name. And where is this band from you ask me again? No, not Berlin and not Vienna and not Cologne. Yes, you guessed it: Switzerland; Basel and Zurich to be exact. Out of Reach is a song off their new record Discogedanken. Pretty damn fabulous.

Song of the Week – Black Sea Dahu – Take Stock of What I have – Episode 39
Where this band is from? You’d never guess. Switzerland of all places and probably the best thing to come out of the land of banks and cheese since…probably Yello or at least Faber. Just so heart warming.

Song of the Week – Olafur Arnalds – re:member – Episode 35
This Icelandic composer is often compared to Nils Frahm. What a compliment; but well deserved.
Song of the Week – Our Girl – In My Head – Episode 34
It was about time we see another British rock band with a “female front man”. Our girl are exceptional and Our Girl shows you why:
Song of the Week – Sharon Van Etten – Jupiter 4 – Episode 33
Sharon Van Etten is one of the most relevant voices of our time. Jupiter 4 is a taster of what’s to come.
Song of the Week – The Goon Sax – Make Time 4 Love – Episode 32

To see another – possibly even better side of the goons:
