Magic Kids

I'm spoiling you guys today. Now I only have one exam left, I can do this more often I guess. Keep an eye out for an upcoming mixtape, new Fair Ohs and Tijuana Panthers over the next few days.

Anyway, Magic Kids - some major new buzzband that's touring with Ariel Pink right now, and I'm not suprised, as they pretty much sound like a watered-down Ariel Pink with massive Beach Boys vibes. But this isn't a bad thing, as the end product is a total burst of sunshine and fun times. This is the soundtrack to that ideal, perfect breeze you get as you lay on your deckchair on Oahu. Bliss.

Charlie & The Moonhearts

Charlie & The Moonhearts are a garage-rocking, surf-popping musical act of tricks straight outta LA, USA. Their ten song tape 'Thunderbeast' has been a hidden gem in my collection for quite some time (I'm pretty sure I found it through Christian over at the hippest blog in the sphere BE BOP KIDS!) and I just wanted to share their jams with ya'll. These guys are pretty much a tribute to the Beach Boys and the 'swinging 60s', four words that should be making your brain think "holy shit, I have to get this RIGHT NOW!"

The band have recently changed their name to simply "Moonhearts", and their debut LP as a band will be released in June and under that moniker and on Tic Tac Totally. Consider this a head start and get on it!
