Trotting Bear: Morning

Trotting Bear's music should be synonymous to relaxing acoustic folk. The sound emanating from the beautiful guitars is enough to make you want to listen and just leave it playing for a good long while. The man behind the sound is Andy Berkhout, a singer songwriter who has had several albums and records released under his name. Trotting Bear is one of his side projects and serves as a short extension of his usual folk/Americana, lofi sound.

Koloah: Love EP

Another intriguing release from one of the most active electro ambient netlabels today; Cut Music is showcasing Kiev producer, Koloah, and making his latest effort Love EP, a part of their 2012 roster. The label has been sharing one great compilation after another and this is the 11th release from them. Most of their compilations have gained considerable attention and it's not hard to see why. In fact, several of these EPs were also also featured right here on the Frostclick blog.

Awake! Awake!: New Prime – Episode 5 Soundtrack

Making their second appearance here in the Frostclick blog is Murfreesboro, TN group, Awake! Awake! Their first album, We've Been Strangers, was released back in 2007 and was a haven of infectious riffs and indie rock goodness. This time around, they're not only brandishing a deeper, more mental sound; they're also playing it in support of Olan Rogers' short film series, New Prime.

EndAnd: Adventures of Hi-Fi in Space

Altpunk band, EndAnd is one of those groups, you swear you've heard somewhere before. Their "familiar" sound stems from the 80s new wave and 90s alternative touch they carry; plus, they hail from indie rock capital, Brooklyn, NY. Having a familiar sound isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's this affinity after all that gathers listeners; giving EndAnd an easy spot over alternative punk lovers hearts. Adventures of Hi-Fi is a short five single EP that's loaded with good rhythm, dirty guitars and a polished basement sound.

Derek Clegg: You Remind Me Of No One

A familiar face here in the Frostclick blog, You Remind Me of No One is Derek Clegg's latest effort. This would mark the fifth time his music has appeared here and overall, his seventh compilation to date. Containing his signature laid-back folk pop sound, the album is another worthy check-out for anyone who's listened to the artist and his previous albums.

Alex Stockley: Nearly Nineteen

Alex Stockley creates music that showcases a slice of life. His laid back acoustic pop rock is soothing and serves as great company for mellow days. Not much info is out there about the London singer but his music easily speaks for themselves. Filled with sweet acoustic cuts, his tracks carry great rhythm and wrapped gorgeously in the Englishman's great vocals. Nearly Nineteen is a set of 7 demo tracks recorded over the summer of 2012 and released at BandCamp on September of the same year.

The Black Sunn: Born Alone, Die Alone

Born Alone, Die Alone is a 2009 album from Florida-based rapper and musician, The Black Sunn. Produced by Mydus, the album contains 15 jammin' tracks that show off catchy beats and great lyrical poetry. According to the emcee, he wanted "to show the world that Baltimore has a voice that’s more than just drug dealing and murder..." He adds, "some people may not like that but I’m not one to hold back what I gotta say."

Battle Circus

Exploding performances and complex, ambitious arrangements pretty much describe Battle Circus. Originally from New Zealand, the band has relocated to the US in 2010 to focus in spreading their sound and touring the continent. No strangers to the festival circuit, the boys have also performed plenty of awesome sets in support of Amanda Palmer and Gary Numan. This self-titled record carries 10 progressive cuts including two remastered tracks from their debut EP, The Half Light Symphony.
