Lost Tapes - The Bill [VIDEO PREMIERE]

It's been three years since the last release by Spanish indie pop duo Lost Tapes and it was about time they brought out some new material. Since late December 2018 they had been teasing their fans with news of a fresh 4-track EP. 
The Bill will be out on February 22nd and Pau Roca and RJ Sinclair promise to immerse you into vibes of pure happiness in song format. The first single they are sharing today is proof of that. The electronic drumroll begins and it brings along melodies and bubbly arrangements that will fill your being and put a smile on your face. 
From Pop 2 Top is happy to be premiering a lyric video for the title song 'The Bill' created by Adriá Martínez Roda. The EP will be out on 7" via Kocliko Records (EU), digitally via Shelflife (USA) and on cassette via Shiny Happy Records (Asia).

Business Of Dreams - Ripe For Anarchy

February is proving to be a hot month for indie pop releases. The latest addition to the albums-we're-loving-this-year list comes from Corey Cunningham's solo project Business Of Dreams. The Los Angeles based musician and former Terry Malts and Magic Bullets guitarist created his debut self-titled album Business Of Dreams in 2017 as an outlet for inner emotional purification. 
His sophomore album Ripe For Anarchy was released on February 1st and conveys feelings of release, confidence and optimism. From the opening 'Chasing That Feeling' to the majestic, closing track 'Keep The Blues Away' Cunningham has managed to create his rendition of the genre as well as pay a stellar homage to past indie pop legends, such as The Field Mice. 
Ripe For Anarchy is out on vinyl and CD on Slumberland Records and Knock Yr Socks Off Records. Check it out below! 

Sambassadeur - Foot Of Afrikka

Swedish indie pop band Sambassadeur formed in 2003 and by 2010 they had released three albums on Labrador Records. After a seven-year-absence they are back with a new single taken from their upcoming fourth album Survival, which will be out on April 12th on the band's newly launched label European Records. 
'Out Of Afrikka' sounds like an oasis of serenity and can quench your thirst for escapism thanks to the jangly guitars and Anna Persson's melodic voice. 
While waiting for the album you can watch the video directed by Samuel Peterson and filmed at an indoor beach outside Gothenburg. Enjoy!
