It's been a little while in the making since we recorded this video back in July in Norway on the Owl & Mouse tour with The Smittens, but I've finally found a rainy Sunday to put this video together. Shot partly on the train journey from the Bergen to Volda, and then over the weekend at Indiefjord, Misfits is the final video taken from Owl & Mouse's debut album departures.
Hannah says "This is an old song that took a different shape after a visit to my hometown. It’s about the relationship I have with my siblings, how every time I’m with them I’m surprised by how similar we are and how we all feel and think the same things."
Earlier in the summer, Darren Hayman took Owl & Mouse out on to the canals of East London with The Record Deck to shoot a video for Departures, taken from the debut album of the same name.

We've one more treat from Making Marks' debut album for you: a video for Like Spinning. A version of the track initially appeared on their very first release as Making Marks, as the b-side to the Ticket Machine single, back in 2012. Here, songwriter Ola Innset has filmed and produced a video for the album version of the track, which will give you an insight into the side of Oslo he sees within the song...

An absolutely dreamy pop song from Azure Blue with a video to suit, I'm still overwhelmed by this song, and by the album. Having been listening to it for several months now, the palpitations of hearing it for the first time are still there every time the vinyl goes on to my turntable - its a record for lying back on the sofa and dreaming of the thrill of summer road trips, the lush grassy meadows and the brisk late evening swims under the sunset... The album is out now on LP/CD/double gatefold LP.
Here's a new video from Fulhäst, the second from his debut album Broken, starring members of Tigercats and Fever Dream. Fulhäst plays lo-fi Gameboy pop-punk about movies, heartbreak and stuff.
The album was recorded in the spring by Darren Hayman and Darren has also remixed one of the tracks, Your Skin, available here as a free download.
