These Animals - These Animals
GENRE: Rock, Indie, Shoegaze
Label: Ah Records
Release date: 2011
Total running time: 00:25:12
These Animals are four wild and charming creatures from the urban jungle in the great city of New York. Their music is just as diverse as the jungle itself. Imagine dreamy guitar soundscapes crossed with a motown dancy rythm section. Sounds weird? Well, listen for yourself and discover a mix of dreamy pop and dance-able rock and roll that comes along with sixties-inspired harmonies, floating shoe-gaze guitar textures and toe-tapping rhythms. All sitting very comfortably next to each other.
The boys met while attending art school in New York where they studied studio production for music. Their personal musical journey as a band began with a songwriting project in the early months of 2010. After a few lineup changes, These Animals came to be described as a “supergroup” of bands in their college circuit, hailing Greg Baldwin and Brian Crimmins from Greg Baldwin & The Aesthetics, Jon Rick from Wyldlife, and Will Whatley, from seemingly every band at the college.
Using the elements of pop music to guide their writing process, the four New York boys simultaneously embrace and redefine their genre. In their first self titled EP Greg’s sixties-inspired melodies float over chaotic guitars, syncopated rhythms, visceral textures, and hard-hitting rock.

The Spherical Minds - Transpheres
GENRE: Rock, Post Rock, Shoegaze
Label: Tripostal
Release date: 2011
Total running time: 00:44:38
Known for their dream-like music with dub reminiscences and classical melodies, The Spherical Minds are the missing link between post-rock, progressive and psyche music. Thus it wasn't a surprise when Danny Cavanagh (from Anathema) did the band the honor of singing on the second album "Fern", released on our physical label Carte Postale Records in 2005.
Today with "Transpheres", the French band share 45 minutes of mostly instrumental music but we are sure you will not pass near the charm of the female voice on "Kokkola Transition" without emotions. Also it is the first time we won't hear the Marie Mertzweiller's wonderful cello but the Mathieu Maestracci's piano melodies are prominently alongside ethereal guitar atmospheres and it works !

Beyond the Dune Sea - Beyond the Dune Sea
GENRE: Rock, Post Rock, Experimental, Shoegaze, Electronic, Ambient
Label: Abridged Pause
Release date: 2010
Total running time: 00:27:59
Although this site is about music released under Creative Commons, I decided to post - occasionally - music that is copyrighted. With the consent of the label, of course. The music is freely distributed for download on the Labels site and I also have their assent.
There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. This is Beyond the Dune Sea.
Beyond the Dune Sea’s debut full length is a brilliant album. And it was done in such a “post-musical” style as well. A series of live jams were recorded and the whole thing was put together in post-production style by Adam Kennedy. The entire album is flawless and could be your next album on repeat once you get started. This is not to be passed by in 2010.

Echoes from Jupiter - Europa
GENRE: Rock, Post Rock, Experimental, Shoegaze
Label: Self
Release date: 2010
Total running time: 00:48:42
Echoes From Jupiter mixes post-rock melodies and textures with grungier attacks and some elements of shoegaze music. Blending all these styles together helps create their own unique sound while still paying some kind of tribute to their main inspirations (The Smashing Pumpkins, The Cure, Mogwai, Godspeed You! Black Emperor to name a few).
Formed in 2005 in Quebec City, the band has since seen a lot of changes in its lineup, stabilizing in 2009, the same year they released their first EP Io. After playing a few shows opening for local bands and showcasing their latest effort, they started writing new material for a LP called Europa which was released on September 27th 2010. Their newest songs feature a more elaborated and better crafted sound, closer to their post-rock influences but still very much alternative.
