Song: Would You Mind?

Artist: Part Time Musicians feat. Chladni Chandi
Label: Rats Records
After their debut single “Vacation Time” hit number one at Fat Radio’s Top 40 chart last month, the folk-trio Part Time Musicians have quickly released their second single, “Would You Mind?” Featuring Chladni Chandi’s frontman Chawalit “Yong” Saowapakpongchai, on violin and guest musician Noparuj Satjawan on sitar “Would You Mind?” is an upbeat jaunty number, that has enough quirky-edges to avoid being too cutesy and exciting at the same time.         

Song: “Fon Tok Kuen Fah”

Artist: Valley Runner
Label: Independent
Last month when we introduced Secondhand Strings’ “Into the Wild,” a single from Bedroom Studio’s Movie to Music Project, we also came across another single that caught our fancy. Inspired by Pen-Ek Ratanarueng’s action-drama Fon Tok Kuen Fah, Valley Runner has created this acoustic number about a guy who will stop loving his girlfriend when it’s “fon tok kuen fah” (raining upside down).

Song: “The Ballad of a Man and His Sorrow”

Artist: Kobe
Label: Independent
Kobe, an independent group made up of L.J Bain Chompoowong (vocal and guitars), Tawan Chiraseepanya (bass and vocals) and Ayu Charuburana (drums and vocals), has finally released another single “The Ballad of a Man and His Sorrow.” This new installment is more melodic than their usual rock style, and is actually quite pop-inspired. As the title suggests, the song depicts a man sorrowful over his past, but the overall mood hints at a happier ending.

Song: “Teenage Love”

Artist: Gramaphone Children
Label: Kitsch Cat/Vinyl Hub Studio
After DJing at many hipster venues like WTF and Badmotel, Jaree Thanapura aka “Gramaphone Children” has just released his new  track “Teenage Love.” The single’s heavy use of synths and electro-triged vocals transports us back to the 80s, but its catchy chorus really leaves us wanting more.
