cape lion - Austin Town Hall

Fun Jam from Cape Lion

With all this SXSW business going on, I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed…you know, scheduling, advice, sleeping arrangements, etc. So, with that in mind I figured I’d just throw out this jam from Cape Lion to lift all our spirits. It’s a pretty straight-forward pop jam of the electronic sort. The Swedish duo craft the sort of jam you just want to throw on to get the evening dance party started for all your friends, so why not throw that party right now? Expect an EP from the band later this Spring…for now just enjoy the swelling pop sounds coming through your speaker.

Cape Lion Hits The Sweet Spot

Cape Lion proves to me that I should move the Sweden and start Stockholm Town Hall.

Nathan was a little worried this was too poppy. Bah, no such thing as too poppy, but it can’t suck. I like this track from a pending EP quite a bit. It has the big wave synth with soaring riffs and an M83-at-their-best feeling while having a pleasant pop sensibility. I see this as the soundtrack to a drive home. Get the timing right, pull into the driveway just as the last notes fade out…

I have the embed to stream right here, but head past the break for a surprisingly awesome live video they shot in an attic above their recording space.
