FREE MUSIC MONDAY

Turns out we DO like Mondays after all...

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 12 Dec 2011

The madness in Hot Press having temporarily abated, we’re delighted to bring you an all killer, no filler Free Music Monday. After three disgracefully Matt Berninger-free weeks, we’re delighted to report that The National can be seen performing a gorgeous new track, ‘Rylan’, at www.cbc.ca/q/video

You’ll have to watch a couple of cringey Canadian adverts first, but trust us, it’s worth it. There’s also audio of another new track, ‘I Need My Girl’, at soundcloud.com/alan-williamson/the-national-i-need-my-girl Still not sated? Okay, we've got the vid for Clogs' 'Last Song', which features Matt's very dulcet tones.

The Drums may sound like a genetic splicing of all the best British indie bands of the past 25 years, but they’re also huge Sugarcubes fans as is evident from the cover of Bjork & Co.’s ‘Birthday’, which they recorded recently for America’s Sirius XM network.

50 Cent turns Santa Claus with a free mixtape, which enlists the help of Paris and Tony Yayo @ www.mixtapepass.com/music/0000020761-the_big_10.php

Not to be outdone, Lupe Fiasco has his own mixtape, which is trailed at 923now.radio.com/2011/12/06/download-lupe-fiascos-electro-infused-mixtape-fight-evil-in-the-process

If it’s obscure retro Crimbo music you’re after proceed immediately to latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog/2011/12/premiere-zebras-christmas-morning-from-struts-in-the-christmas-groove.html which has details of the very fine In The Christmas Groove and a free download of Zebras’ ‘60s nugget, Christmas Night’ – a tune that sounds like The Zombies after copious egg nogs.

Alex Winston won’t be releasing her full-length debut album until March, but the American indie songstress is whetting appetites with her
