Don't I know you better than the rest

Beach House - Silver Soul

[Teen Dream]

I'm off to the UK/France for the next few weeks, enjoy the rest of the summer without me. I think this song is a good way to start.

Photos from Pitchfork fest in Chicago in July which I am fully aware is quite old news now. I love looking at pictures of my favourite musicians performing, there's something so dynamic about performance photos, I just can't get enough of them. Speaking of, Brisbanians should also look out for Yeasayer (3/10, The Zoo), Ladytron and Familjen (1/10, The Tivoli) and The New Pornographers (7/10, The Zoo) who are swinging by in the next couple of months, can't wait. MGMT (I know, I know) has also just upgraded venue size for the Sydney and Melbourne shows, might be able to get some tickets this time.

I might post some more festival pictures tomorrow, I have tonnes and this is fun.

Air France who released one of my favourites, No Way Down EP, this year has done a version of 'Sweetness' by Taken by Trees and it's really freaking great. Find it here.

Listen to and watch this lovely live version of my favourite song off Beach House's Devotion - 'Holy Dances':
