Purity Ring - Fineshrine


Really great song today. I've been listening to this one over and over for like two months now. "Fineshrine" by Purity Ring is loaded with deep electronic instrumentals and is complimented by the beautiful vocals of Megan James. Purity Ring is a duo from Canada that formed in 2010. The music video is a little interesting but if you've got the time, I highly recommend watching a live performance of theirs because the second member of the duo Corin Roddick plays a completely custom beat sampler/electronic drum machine with lights on it. Wild.

Birdy - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight


Sorry to anyone who actually anticipates my posts. I've been out of the country for a month but now I'm home and have some good music for you. About a year ago Birdy released a great cover of Bon Iver's "Skinny Love" which you have probably heard by now. But I'm here to tell you that if you haven't checked her out more than that, you're missing out big time. This cover of The Postal Service was on repeat during most of my vacation. I love it. Add to this great song the fact that Birdy is only 15 years old and it becomes unbelievable. This girls got talent.
