Rose Elinor Dougall



If you know your Pipettes you'll recognise this little face as Rosay from the Brighton indie-pop girl group. We'll since April 2008 she's been an ex-Pipette and writing on her own.

Late last year she released 'Another Version Of Pop Song', an up-beat and sublimely produced track which finds some middle-ground between psychedelic Beatles and Bat For Lashes.

On 8 June she's releasing 'Start/Stop/Synchro' which continues down a similar route rife with elegant strings, flutes and keys. Be sure to buy it over at rosedougall.com as you'll get free tickets to the single launch.

Unfortunately there's no video that I can find, so instead let's reminisce about when she was in The Pipettes and all do 'The Finger Wag' and 'The Shocker'!

Ra Ra Riot vs Passion Pit



So the Passion Pit album's leaked. That's the problem with super-hyped indie bands isn't it, and by now almost everyone has heard it by now. Good though isn't it! As well as 'Sleephead' and 'The Reeling', also make sure you check out 'Folds In Your Hands' for the best PP have to offer.

Their awesomely rippy video for the new single is below:



One of the prerequisites for bands getting signed nowadays is they have a defined sounds, and Passion Pit's comes wading through in their edit of Ra Ra Riot's 'Ghost Under The Rocks', taken from their debut album 'The Rhumb Line'.
