Most of these songs already exists in Spotify, but there are some new ones and quite a few new live versions. Enjoy!

Karl Blau – Dance Positive
2009/10/21
Hey. There has been a Spotify update today. Included was this Karl Blau album from 2007. Interesting stuff. Enjoy!
(Note about the album: “Blau first gained notice as one third of D+, the trio that singer and guitarist Bret Lunsford formed with Blau and drummer Phil Elvrum (the Microphones) after Beat Happening broke up. Dance Positive consists of Lunsford-penned songs from the first four D+ records, completely reworked in the amiably offbeat style of Blau’s previous three solo albums.”)

Santogold
2009/09/17
Hello again. This sparkling album was included in the latest Spotify update. Last year, when the album came out, she was Santogold. In February this year, she was forced to change her artist name to Santigold because of a legal threat. This adds to some confusion in both last.fm and Spotify. Anyway, enjoy!

Hey again. Todays Spotify update was a real monster with close to 150.000 tracks (for me in Sweden). Actually it’s so much music I fear my head is going to explode. I’ll be back later when I’ve figured out how to present some of my finds. Until then, please enjoy the new Wilco album!
