Greetings virgin bouncers!

The origins behind the daily bounce..... I started to send a select few friends a song a day (missing a few days out due to being a human with a lazy gene). This evolved in a darwinistic style and became the daily bounce. These friends now chip in from time to time and raise songs to trump my previous bounce...I had to take it one step further and reclaim the bounce as my own...So I sailed the seedy seas of the internet and developed this blog.

This is where I can showcase old and new songs that I love, and typically 'bounce' to....enjoy...

Rizzle Kicks


This duo is a force to be messed with. Using established well put together tightly produced tunes and splicing them so that they can infiltrate with their poetry...this duo is set to explode. Using established artists for blank canvases such as lily Allen, The White Stripes and The Strokes, they use a totally different medium to the original artist to create a modern day surrealist movement. With lyrics so cuttingly truthful and adlibs equally as beautiful. I have well and truly fallen in love with this urban/pop/indie ‘Jedward’ (hate Jedward..literally hate Jedward).

Listen here, no no indulge here.

Watch their Music Video right

Superhumanoids



This LA electronic force have just announced UK tour dates mostly supporting Local Natives. Superhumanoids are definitely soon to hit the big time doing remixes left right and centre. With repetitive electronic beats and a laid back approach, their stuff is best heard chilling out on a big leather sofa with a martini in hand (or just a beer, a beer would do...). Their ambient remix of the Local Natives track 'Shapeshifter' parades their talents effortlessly, and yes you can hear it right here>>>>> ‘Listen Here’ .

Listen here to their myspace which features more spaced out tracks for you to feast on. I really like what these guys are doing, and I will be in attendance at one of their UK dates for sure....these are a personal best bounce for me.

Enjoy!

Peace O Love

sorry for the lack of bounce this week!


My body has been invaded by little ill bugs and is currently incapable of functioning....FAIL...I've not been able to listen to music this week let alone analyse and dissect it!

Have yourself awesome weekends and tune in Monday for a very special bounce :-)

Peace o Love

KLAUS


This Brighton based singer songwriter is soon to be releasing the single ‘I Saw The Light’ through indie label Got Got Need Records. With soft vocals and a clear folk influence this guy is a great listen on a crisp winter morning…so well done Got Got, good timing on your release!

With hints of the ever talented Maccabees and newer bands such as Tristram (listen Here), Klaus sets himself a big mountain to climb. But with his tight vocals and pristine harmonies I’m sure he’ll do just fine.

Listen here

Napoleon In Rags


Todays bounce brings you Napoleon In Rags a band that in recent months has supported the likes of Bombay Bicycle Club and Babyshamble.
With sharp vocals and a jumpy little bass line this new age indie band quite clearly know how to put a catchy tune together. ‘Don’t Let It Out’ can be heard on their myspace here >>>LISTEN TO TUNE HERE<<<
A track with no doubt a stadium sound and a rhythm that makes you wana whack on your wellies, pull out the cider and dance in some muddy field somewhere in Somerset.
These are a one to watch.

Jamie does Dallas, or at least it sounds like he comes from there with the track ‘Suzy Sang’….and no this is by no means an insult! This for me gives a big virtual thumbs up! *Jamie here is my thumbs up*. With recent releases by artist such as Dylan LeBlanc there is definitely room for Jamie Ley to flourish. I love that even though we are English/Londoners we can still create songs with as much soul, blues and emotion as someone that eats squirrels for tea and chews tobacco.
I hope that the folk scene that has shaped and set itself resident in London for the past few years starts to move in the same direction as Jamie and his band…no more Mumfords please (they are the only ones that’s can)!!

Listen here to Jamie Ley’s myspace

And by all means, Enjoy!

White Russia



This south London alternative electronic wonder came into my world only this week and I am so glad they did. I’ve listened to the few tracks that their myspace has to offer continuously for the last two days. Especially the track ‘Charmless State’…with vocals that echo Bjork and more recent acts like Lykke Li and beats that are reminiscent of Massive Attack and early Faithless its clear to me that this band has a the ability to nest themselves comfortably in a niche that needs filling.
If this band doesn’t go on to conquer festivals next summer and have their songs remixed and played in warehouse raves up and down the country then I’ll eat my hat.

Listen to their Myspace here

Watch ‘Charmless State’ here.<< Epic Video!

Peace o Love
