1."Honeypie"- Peachy Keene:

Okay this was one of those on a whim things and I now really really like this song. Peachy Keene is fantastic. Check out the whole EP.

2."Pisces Lullabye (demo"-Honey White:

I won't always do this, but this song is in honor of my very awesome friend, Kira who in fact is a serious Pisces. (Yeah I'm one of those people. The one that believes in the zodiac thing not to mention the fact that I'm a Scorpio which is fantastic but hey that's a whole 'nother story for a different song ). Kira, you'll like this listen and I'm pretty sure everyone else will too.

3."Little Things"- The Peach Kings:

I've posted The Peach Kings before but I've been way into listening to their EP Trip Wop lately and this is one of my favorite songs from it. It came out in August I believe.

Download the whole Trip Wop EP here

4." Gotten"-LOS GAUCHOS:

Okay now this is cool. Given my fascination with different nationalities this is awesome. It's Argentine indie. It's in English but it's soft, mellow and beautiful. I believe the album cover is an early picture of Slash. I like it.

5."Sweet Lucy"-Harlan Pepper:

Okay how perfect is this? And added bonus it's a good song. It's indie/folk with a wee bit of twang. I love it!

1."Lotus Flower (Jacques Greene Rmx)"- Radiohead:

Something about Thom Yorke's voice. It's like magic and this remix is extremely good. I have the original version but I actually like this version better.

It's the Itunes Indie spotlight this week! download it there

2." Dirty Blood"- Artful Vandelays:

This band is from Toronto and they are a quite a  talented alternative indie band. The guitar riffs are great. They sound like a grungier Weezer and slightly more indie.

3."Love U More (RAC Mix)"- Sunday Girl:

This girl has a lovely voice and in my opinion the remix and the real version don't sound all that different.  This song is the closest it can be to pop without being pop.

4."Stay Gold"- The Big Pink:

Yes! New music from The Big Pink! For those of you that know and like the song by them "Dominos" you will be happy campers. This song is close behind "Dominos" on my list. I don't know if I'm the only one but I start to think about Ponyboy and the Outsiders.

5." Whose Side Are You On Anyway"- Absofacto:

This song has a great chorus and great vocals. I also felt like I'd heard of Absofacto before this point but now I'm glad I've actually heard them! Yay! (and if you have already I'm sorry I'm not providing you with anything new)

1."October"- Nomandic Firs:

Oh how perfect. October in October. Doesn't get a whole lot better than that. Oh but wait it does because this is a good song. It's a (sadly) short acoustic little tune.

2."Day and Night"- From The Hollow:

Rock indie with great drums and lyrics. Another cool album cover too! Feast your ears.

3."Gather On The Threshold"- Dead Boy Robotics:

One of my favorite bands from Scotland. They are adding to my awesome new music list of October because they have a single out on Halloween then a new album in November! I can't wait.

4."Eyelids"- Anymen:

A pretty Harmony along with an equally pretty melody and nice guitar.

5."Glass Harmonica"- Arms:

A bouncy and upbeat new track. Sure to keep you in a good mood.

1." Whiskey"- The Glass Eye:

This song has classic rock kind of female vocals. It's the first time in a while I've heard new music sound like music of this generation. You'll have to listen to see if you agree.

2."Hello Sadness"-Los Campesinos!:

high energy alternative music. The lyrics in this song are really cool. If you listen to them carefully this song will probably engage your imagination.

3." Broken Dreams"- Glitter Freeze:

I particularly like the name of this group. I'm not sure why it just sounds really cool. I also really like the drums in this song.

4." Moon"- We Drew The Map:

The guitar in this song is magical. You might think it's instrumental but be patient there's just a 1:21 min intro.

5."Oh Dear! Oh Dear!"- Dear Darling:

Don't you just love interjections? Here's a high energy song for you with a pretty album cover.

1." Total Decay"- The Soft Moon:

This song has been getting lots of internet hype lately. It's interesting. The wailing background music is cool. It's definitely a mellower song.

2."Wolves Of The East Coast"- PK:

Ahh. Yummy alternative indie rock. It's gorgeous. The music sounds a little like the Boxer Rebellion and the vocals are just delicious. They release their new album Berelain in about 3 days!

Wolves of the East Coast by Wearepk

3."She's A River"- Firehorse:

Great female vocals and a lovely beat in the background. It's a powerhouse kind of song. It's also unexpected and far less mellow than the other songs I've been hearing tonight.

4."Hard To Breathe"- Tully On Tully:

More pretty female vocals but softer. They're lovely. It's a lovely song. It has a nice beat and pretty lyrics.

5."Carry Me"- Geoff Ereth:

This song is sweet. Soft piano, soft vocals and sweetness all the way through. It has great lyrics too. It's the kind of song that could be in a movie at a part where the protagonist is having the serious breakdown. You know how it goes. It happens in almost every modern day movie.

1.Pericles"- Out Go The Lights:

A lovely little indie melody. I can't think of a band to compare it too. But something about it will probably sound familiar to you when you hear it.

2."Friends"- Camus And The Cat:

There's something adorable about this song. Maybe it's the vocals, maybe it's the lyrics or maybe it's all of it together. The cover art is also pretty great. It made me chuckle.

3."4 Walls"- Massive Attack vs Burial:

This is such an amazing collaboration. This is a 12 minute piece of glory. It has the best from both groups and makes for the most amazing mix.

4." Videotapes"- Blouse:

This song sounds retro. It's like the 80s incapsulated in about 3 minutes. It's gorgeous really. Listen to it.

5."Night In The Ocean"-Young Magic:

Mellow, dreamy music that makes me miss the beach. The music kinda sounds like you're swimming which totally adds to the coolness of the title.
