Nancy - Keep Cooler [mp3 AudioPorn FM]

Brazil is known for it’s ass-shakin’ music with artists like CSS and Bonde do Role, which leaves one to wonder what else is out there? Well, Nancy, that’s what! Their sultry melodic indie pop sound is miles away from what the Brazilian music scene is noted for in the States, but Nancy is about to introduce everyone to Brazil’s hidden indie rock scene.

This 5-piece band are making available for free download the title track from their deliciously sexy EP Keep Cooler, being digitally released Stateside on March 10, 2009. On this track Camila Zamith’s seductive vocals perfectly compliment the chugging rhythm section and soaring melodies, making this a great kick-off to the EP. Check out their March tour dates after the jump.

Jeff Hanson – Your only son [Audio Porn FM]

In case you’ve managed to miss Jeff Hanson somewhere along the line, it’s your damn duty to pay attention now. Jeff’s an extremely talented singer/songwriter from Wisconsin, USA, and debuted some 5 years ago with the heavenly "Son" album. A month ago he released his 3rd album, "Madam Owl".

Like the rest of his songs/albums it is nothing short of brilliant and full of touching, heartfelt little stories. All sung with an angelic voice that most catholic boy choir members would kill for. It’s hard to choose a single track from the album, since they’re all spectacular, so I let the dice decide which to post. Turned out it is "Your only son" – one of my favorites (it would be, wouldn’t it…). Close your eyes – and enjoy!

Wired’s Listening Post recently caught up with two companies — Sellaband and SlicethePie
– that are betting music fans want to bet on music by investing in
artists they believe in.  By raising money from fans and investors,
these companies offer bands a chance to spend $30K and upwards on an
album without making a deal with a label.  And for fans, these sites
offer a way to get involved in music industry financing for as little
as $10. For the details, check out the latest Listening Post column.

this is the second volume of our new weekly series
recommending you some nice, but longer reads about music
it’s a weekend, you have more time, so just go
read and think
and let us know what you think about the recommended subjects
this week you can read and think about these:

RIAA [Wired]
RIAA Training Video Leaked onto Torrent Sites
The RIAA apparently produced a new video, already available on a variety of torrent tracker sites, in conjunction with the National District Attorneys Association with the goal of instructing U.S. prosecutors on how to deal with music piracy cases.  According to early reports, the video, called In Trial, also provides instructions on how to get an RIAA investigator qualified as a court expert.

Indiepop [TimesOnline]
Pop bands shun major labels to go indie
As the music industry implodes, we introduce the rising young pop bands taking a leaf out of the indie rulebook

Men VS Women [Guardian]
Women and men do not listen to music differently
They might react emotionally to different things – but the theory put forward by Lesley Douglas, co-ordinator of the BBC’s popular music coverage, is patronising bunkum

Old Nick [Guardian]
Nick Cave interview
He has been spitting hellfire and damnation for years, but now that he has turned 50, is Nick Cave finally mellowing? Of course not, he tells Simon Hattenstone
