I Am Canadian
It’s that time of the year where I shameless plug Canadian artists. Kind of a Canadian weekend update post. Haha, not actually, but strangely I’ve been finding this great new music coming out and they’re all Canadian. The only sore point of Canadian music at the moment is Justin Bieber, although he did get into the music industry pretty much on his own at an amazingly young age. I respect the guy, not his music for the obvious reason that I am not a twelve year old girl. Moving along, starting off with the new head liner Drake. It’s a mash-up by Chi Duly, it’s actually a whole mash-up album called October’s Very Cold mixing Coldplay and Drake. Anyways, this track mashes Drake I’m Still Fly featuring Page and Silver Medallion and Coldplay The Scientist. Every time I listen to the track, I hear the dubbed in vocals but I can’t help but sing The Scientist. It’s great. Second is from Arcade Fire and their new track We Used To Wait from their upcoming album The Suburbs due for August this year. I’m actually really excited now cause this track is amazing. I’ve listened to it too many times to count. And lastly, Stars Fixed from their upcoming album The Five Ghosts which comes out June 22nd, something to look forward to. You can actually stream the whole album here.
