bon iver @ glastonbury

By all accounts Bon Iver delivered in their 3 Glastonbury performances but this one seems to have people talking. It's about half of the set from the Sunday afternoon (I think) and culminates in a great version of "Wolves".

Enjoy, it's beautiful.

Bon Iver - Creature Fear
Bon Iver - Skinny Love
Bon Iver - Blood Bank
Bon Iver - For Emma
Bon Iver - Wolves

jj

new mp3
Things that are known about jj:

• they're on arguably the coolest record label around, Sweden's 'Sincerely Yours'
• they're called jj
• they've released two records - jj N^o 1 and jj N^o 2

Thing that I know about jj:

• they've made a record (jj N^o 2) that is like crack in its moreishness
• their song 'Ecstasy' contains the best extrapolation of Lil' Wayne's "Lollipop" known to man
• any summer will be enhanced by this record
• I already love them

If you like 'dreampop' - I'd never heard that term until the other day when reading an article describing Beach House as dreampop. If that's the case, I thought, then I love dreampop because Beach House are brilliant - then you'll enjoy this.

jj - From Africa To Malaga

jj - Ecstasy
