Let these pop songs brighten your weekend! Believe me, it will. :)

MUST WATCH: Just like Johnny Marr by Alpaca Sports

This is how it looks like if Alpaca Sports was to make a soundtrack for Lost in Translation. They will be releasing their debut LP this month and it's one of the records I'm excited about! You can pre-order Sealed with a Kiss via their bandcamp.

He doesn't even like you or know about the Popkiss 7"

Here are some of the must listen pop tunes of the week!

The Girl with the Paintbrush - Les Bicyclettes de Belsize
A song for your artsy girl crush

As Long as I Have You - Alpaca Sports
A sweet tune you would want to hear from someone you wake up every morning


Honey, Honey - Demure For Sure
A New York-based act with a knock for 60's pop and retro electronic sound.


So Cool - Sunny
Oh baby you so cool/And I don't know what I'd do without you


Regular Town - New Navy
A classic tale of 'we're from two different worlds but hey I still like you' something like that...


Fade Into You - Stumbleine fet Steffaloo
An amazing cover of a Mazzy Star classic with a glo-fi twist


Heavy Heart - Tripping the Light Fantastic

MUST LISTEN: She'll Come Back for Indian Summer by Alpaca Sports

Indian summer what?! There is nothing like Manila summer, it's whole year round!! haha Well, just like the heat we're experiencing in this part of the globe, Alpaca Sports' new single She'll Come Back for Indian Summer is one of the hottest indiepop tracks you'll hear this season. It's out tomorrow via Luxury.

UPDATE:
Here's the neat and cutesy video of She'll Come Back for Indian Summer.  I could almost feel Andreas longing for someone, he barely smiles on the video.

I tend to abuse the repeat button on my iTunes every time I discover awesome tracks. And when I say abuse I mean total exploitation! I could be in death penalty if song abuse is a crime. Anyway, here are the "abused" ones and hope you like em too :p

Alpaca Sports - Just for Fun

Swedish musician Andreas Jonsson just released his debut single under the moniker Alpaca Sports and hell yeah this guy knows how to have fun. In making music that is. Totally digging the summery vibe of this song. I'm actually making my second summer mixtape (hope i can post it soon) because of this track! BTW, the cover art for his single is made by the Japanese artist Ray Kimura. Thanks for sending this, Andeas!

POP ETC. - Halfway to Heaven

First time I heard this song I was like "Is this Another Level?" It has 90's all over it and I like it!!!! POP ETC is the same guys from the band The Morning Benders who decided to change their name because, apparently, the word ‘bender’ in the UK and many parts of Europe is a slang term for ‘homosexual' or equivalent of ‘The Morning Fags’ in America. Their official statement says,  We simply cannot go on using a name that is demeaning to the gay community. The reason we are making music is to reach and unite as many different kinds of people as possible, and the idea that our name may be hateful towards anyone makes us sick. How can you not admire these guys? Sending my brotherly love and kisses to Chris Chu! :p

Beta Frontiers - Hondo feat. Becky Ninkovic (You Say Party!)

From 90's now to 80's! I love how music nowadays can sound like it's from a different era and stay current at the same time. Toronto-based Beta Frontiers knows exactly how to do it. Their debut EP '....' will be released April 7.
