Chicago, Illinois
Despite our focus on the Australian music scene, we get so many emails everyday from artists or labels from around the world asking us to check out their tunes. As you could imagine, it's an arduous task trying to get through all of them. Occasionally we will sit down and go through a bunch, and this morning was one such time (a little early into work, a little bored already).
After browsing through a few, I stopped on one from the artist, Head of Femur. I connected immediately with the first chord of the first song. The quirkiness of Of Montreal, the ballads of Super Furry Animals and the voice of Conor Oberst aka Bright Eyes - this is right up my alley (or maybe my music tastes are getting too fucking out there!). Anyway the track 'Leader and the Falcon' has just made my day. Here are a couple more to check out too.
