Labbet / Ruse of Fools

Let's have a glance at our SoundCoud dropbox to see who's dropped by and left traces. I don't have to tell you that you can send us your music through our SoundCloud page that is right there in our Contact page.

First stop, let's hear these two precious but simple tunes from a Swedish one-man outfit called Labbet. I received the mail yesterday and I guess the guy behind it is called Jonas Linngard and he puts his own category into words as:

Labbet is a one-man outfit operating from Sweden delivering smooth electronica. Excellent music for driving a car or strolling through the park on a Sunday afternoon.

"I started this in October 2009. Made a couple of slow primitive beats and started playing around with different keyboards and guitar effects. My music is meant to communicate a feeling or a state of mind rather then just being music for the sake of it. I don’t really think in terms of hooks or choruses. If they come naturally, fine, but I just want to make music that moves on like an old steam locomotive. Slow, steady and always pushing forward. Sincerity, deep base, primitive beats and hypnotic guitars and are important. If you like it, I’m glad you do. If you don’t like it, there’s lots of other music for you to enjoy. I’m not in it to get famous; I just want you to listen."

But by cruising and strolling you may wonder how can music stretch out my brain-bones on the road and then NOT be Creedence Clearwater Revival or "High Star" or let's say Isaac Hayes? Well the answer lies under you, changing your point of view on strolling music and that's what we did and we came out prosperous and jolly! Here are the two tracks embedded right off our SoundCloud thing.

Next one is a band so unlikely to be introduced called Ruse of Fools. They are from US and led by Mark Gonzalez and when I click the bio link on their webplace, I see their pictures. So I can't add up anything to that. This is THEM:


"The Flood" is the name of their psych-tinged garage-rock track and... there there that's that!
