Laura Marling is the precocious girl in the photo above.

I repeat. She sings wayyy beyond her age.

She even sounds like shes been at it for ages with such a polished sound, but isn’t even in her 20s.

We have mentioned her here before when she collaborated with the mystery jets for a fabulous track.

Enough with the trivia and lets talk about her music.

Her songs are an amalgamation of folk and pop’s utter goodness which are incredibly charming , provocative, disarming and intimate.

Those are the perfect ingredients for a sunday sound.

So get used to her name.

shoegaze needs your time.

shoegaze always needs time.

shoegaze makes you think. experiment, feel, touch and imagine.

Of the present, the future, and definitely in retrospect.

shoegaze is not music you listen to when you are fiery, agitated or impatient.

Its music to be appreciated when you feel like embracing and nestling in the world and life you dont quite get at times.

And in more recent times, the shoegaze m83 have been producing is magic.

Yes. Magic… Amazing. Spectacular.

Saturdays = Youth is the latest offering by m83 which was released by mute records this week.

This album is definitely the easiest to appreciate as it is less experimental, more poppy and has more of a shoegaze feel. But dont deny them of their past work as many have overlooked. This new album just happens to be in a direction that will allow more people to get them.

Remember, take your time with m83 and you will adore them to bits.

yelle has been stirring so much heat in france im pretty embarrassed that i’m only featuring her now.

‘Je veux te voir‘, the hit single which shot her to fame in 2006 is one hell of a dance track. And i totally get why she and her 80s rewind worth of tracks are as easy on the ears as it is to dance to on a greasy sweaty dirty friday evening.

Shes a huge mainstream hipster in france and with such energy and vibrancy she’s gonna take over the world. Be careful..
