La Femme - Sur La Planche-video!

One of our favorite recent tracks on the show has to be La Femme's Sur La Planche. Drenched in reverb, this up-tempo, catchy and wavey track has been one of the highligts from last year and a mainstay on our playlist. The band recently made a nice video to accompany the song which w would love to share.

If you're interested in La Femme, check out their bandcamp-page. You can buy their debut EP there. Unfortunately, the 10"-vinyl seems to be sold out, so you can only buy a digital version. Anyway, enjoy:

We've been away for a while. Well, on this blog at least. Our radioshow has been on air, mostly non-stop the past two months. Miguel was in the studio this week and brought a lot of fine stuff with him. The new double-album from The Boss, Bruce Springsteen for instance. He played two tracks off The Promise yesterday. Anybody catch Springsteen on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon earlier this week? He played a scorching rendition of Because The Night together with Roy Bittan, Steven van Zandt and The Roots. Awesome performance. Man, We would love to see that one as a limited 10" or 7" release on Record Store Day in 2011.
