He de decir antes de daróslos a conocer, que en principio me sonaba el nombre, pero después me he dado cuenta, que simplemente tenía en mi mente a Baumer, de los cuales suenan dos canciones en el player de abajo, concretamente las dos últimas. Aunque quiera cambiar el player, lo dejaré un par de días más y luego será hora para la música de Ander K., que es mucho lo que hay que escuchar y para Baumer, y para los que se dejen escuchar.
Hoy recibí un mail de Bauer, y así es como los he descubierto. Se les compara con Keane, algo suenan parecido. Pero Bauer si usa guitarra, así que algunas diferencias hay. Lo mejor es que los disfrutéis, escuchando las 9 canciones disponibles, quizá las que más me hayan gustado hayan sido:
-Indian sign
-Don't you move
-Lose all memory (with drums) o Connected (with drums)
que por casualidad son las que están en su web, pero la 3ª está en la versión sin batería.Aunque el resto también están bien, y de hecho me están gustando ahora bastante.
Como ya digo, escuchadlos y juzgad por vosotros mismos. A mi personalmente no me gusta comparar, ni vender a nadie diciendo que se parece a Keane. No creo que porque Keane sea ahora un grupo famoso, todos tengan que imitarles,¿no? Sería tremendamente aburrido.Las comparaciones siempre serán inevitables, pero cada banda debe tener su propia personalidad.
Y antes ya de poner la info, sólo diré que en el player a veces pone Bauer y a veces Barfly, quizá este último fuera su anterior nombre.Es sólo una hipótesis.
Siento si no digo esto en inglés hoy, pero según parece fallo en entendimiento :S Marrrditos Cloze test.

Sobre ellos (Info de su web):
Bauer are a U.K Manchester based band who in the past year have received national Radio 1 airplay and secured high-profile support slots with established artists such as Snow Patrol, The Ordinary Boys, Stephen Fretwell, Brendan Benson and Long-View.Their unique brand of melodia and excellent live performances have attracted not only the attention of the music cognoscenti, but also a loyal fanbase and a fantastic online community of people from the UK and beyond. The band are currently holed up in the studio with producer Steve Power (Feeder, Robbie Williams, Blur, Julian Cope etc..) working on tracks intended for their Debut album.
Canciones:
» Unbreakable 3:38 / 5.5MB
» Indian Sign 4:02 / 3.69MB
» Connected (Stripped Down Mix) 4:16 / 2.94MB (también llamada Lose all memory (no drums) )
'Lose All Memory' is a mid tempo indie song while ‘Indian Sign’ is slower and more deliberate in the verses before bursting into life during the verses as Greg’s vocals soar to the heavens and the guitars crank up a notch. ‘Indian Sign’ is arguably the bands best song to date in a damn fine repertoire.

Sobre la banda/Info about them (Supersonic EPK)
After years of meticulously collecting binaural recordings and conducting visceral field experiments, the band once known as Billy Schuh and The Foundry re-emerges from a dark studio lost in the heart of the Midwest as The Foundry Field Recordings. They bring with them a body of work named, Prompts/Miscues. The album is fluid with picturesque places and serrated emotions that are capable of immersing even a most cautious observer in a precise composition of vast melodic layers. Carefully embedded deep within the recordings, this timely process results in an authentic cognitive snapshot of a forgotten memory that can be recalled via music alone. Becky Baxter, Benjamin Hook and Daniel Stegall create lovely shoegaze-pop, resonating with strategic feedback and dance-worthy hooks, as Billy Schuh leads The Foundry Field Recordings with his signature modest nostalgia.A quartet since 2003, The Foundry Field Recordings' contemporaries include: Built to Spill, The Pixies, My Bloody Valentine, Mogwai, Guided by Voices, Apples in Stereo, Grandaddy, Flaming Lips, and Wilco. The Foundry Field Recordings have played with Spoon, The Super Furry Animals, Songs:Ohia/The Magnolia Electric Company, The Stills, Dressy Bessy, Robert Skoro and Aqueduct over its two year existence. They are currently preparing for the national debut of their full-length album Prompts/Miscues, due out on June 13th, 2006.

Bio (desde Yahoo Music):
A veteran of New York's anti-folk scene, Regina Spektor makes quirky, highly eclectic, but always personal music. Born and raised in Moscow until age 9, Spektor listened to her father's bootleg tapes of Western pop and rock as a young child and also learned to play piano. She and her family moved from Russia to the Bronx, where she was immersed in American culture (at the time, hers was the first Russian family in the borough in 20 years). Eventually, Spektor and her family became part of a community that balanced her Russian Jewish roots with her new home's culture. She continued to practice piano anywhere she could, including at her synagogue, until her family got a piano of their own. Spektor further developed her classical piano training by attending the SUNY Purchase Music Conservatory. During her studies, she was exposed to blues and jazz artists, including Billie Holiday, for the first time; these sounds made such an impact on Spektor that they became a big part of her self-released 2001debut album, 11:11. At the same time, she was also playing gigs anywhere she could in the city, in venues ranging from basements to parties to comedy clubs. With her frequent performances and another self-released album, 2002's Songs, Spektor developed a following that included Alan Bezozi, They Might Be Giants' drummer; he introduced Spektor to the Strokes' producer, Gordon Raphael. Raphael and Bezozi worked with Spektor on her third album, Soviet Kitsch in New York and London (where she collaborated with the band Kill Kenada). Soviet Kitsch was initially self-released like her other work, but it eventually found a wider release with Sire Records. Tours with the Strokes, Kings of Leon, Mates of State and the Moldy Peaches' Kimya Dawson further raised Spektor's profile. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
