Ólafur Arnalds - Fok (live)

Woah

.. if today you're not happy with these posts, dunno. Everything is a MUST.
For one side you have piano, ambient, sensitive and beautiful music. Olafur Arnalds and Startle of heavens are just great. Btw, I found Startle of Heavens on myspace, I realized he's not well know yet, but his music has great future.
On the postrock side, you have From the Sky (I already posted an album on december, Like Crystal..) and dunno if u liked the track Electric Snow as much as me. The new album sounds similar and its power too. And Daturah.. I totally enjoy the Ghost Track. Previews are unavailable since its a 29mb track! but get the full album and enjoy the whole thing. Its powerful.
Finally, french canadian indie from Woelv and rare and unreleased tracks from Cocorosie. How cool is that?

Enjoy the week and stay tuned of more music on kapritska's twitter profile.

Have fun!

Something to listen right now, right here






















My fav track of the month, this track is totally amazing. Has some GSYBE! at the beginning..



New track for their upcoming album, Stations, which is going to be released on May.



I already posted this album here, so if u like this track u should get the full album



I tried this album but also liked this song. In case u want to listen more let me know and I'll probably upload sth.



This band is over and Im totally addicted to what they do, what to do then. Also found this, hope u like as much as me.



Nothing related to postrock, this track is from Batman Begins ost but its absolutly great. Its intense, melancholic and deep.

Willow (Ga) - Willow
































Artist: Willow (Ga)
Album: Willow
Genre: Postrock
Year: 2007

Willow is the disk of the month, in my opinion. If u search the name of the band around, u will notice there will be a lot of bands with the same name. I did some extra effort and found their correct name, correct tags and correct website, so here's the whole thing. Its a shame they're not a band anymore, they offered their last show last year. Its a shame.. cos I just discovered it and I totally liked it :(

01. And Finally, I Can Breathe
02. When The Sea Called Our Names
