Mint Julep - Aviary [dream pop]

Mint Julep is an indie duo consisting of Hollie and Keith Kenniff (they're married, if you were wondering, and they also release ambient music under the name "Hollie & Keith Kenniff"). This is "Aviary" from their 2011 album Save Your Season. This song itself was linked at /r/shoegaze in Reddit but it's not really shoegazey at all. But anyway, this song, and the rest of the album, were a good listen. Also, Mogwai apparently did a remix of this song (link).

Bloody Red Shoes - 7 Years [alternative, shoegaze]

Whew, it sure has been a while. There's a bit of a back-log of stuff I wanted to post up but I've been putting that off for various reasons. But anyway..

Bloody Red Shoes are an English alternative rock duo featuring Steve Ansell and Laura-Mary Carter. Since their inception in 2004, they have released three albums. This particularly song is "7 Years" from their latest album In Time to Voices (2012). As a shoegaze fan, I definitely enjoyed the distorted guitar and vocal layering of Laura-Mary in this song.
