Echoes de Luxe: Echoes de Luxe EP

Valerie
This self-titled debut ep from Echoes de Luxe is filled with good surprises. It might be short, with only 5 tracks, but it beautifully showcases the band's range and musical style. The EP was released last 2009 and included a stellar mixer and producer in the person of Alex Newport and Pete Lyman, respectively. These two have worked with bands such as Jubilee, Mars Volta and Deathcab for Cutie. To top it off, the boys managed to secure airplay and performed live for Dave Navarro's radio show. Seems like a pretty good start for any band, right?

A Life on Hold

Monica
There are those films that on some primal level touch straight into your heart, and A Life on Hold certainly fits this category. Directed by Nick Francis and Marc Silver, the film tells the life of Omar, a 17-year old Somalian who’s stranded in a refugee camp since the 2011 war in Libya. When the war broke out, thousands of citizens and refugees from Somalia, Sudan, and Eritrea who were staying or working at the country during that time were forced to leave their lives. In the camps, Omar and the other refugees are left with the hope that they would be relocated to a safer place.

Wake Owl: Wild Country EP

Monica
You wouldn’t imagine that one album can make you feel so much. But Wake Owl’s Wild Country EP harnesses our deep emotions, growing them into a garden teeming with bittersweet symphonies. The Vancouver-based folk/rock collective is the creative brainchild of performer/songwriter Colyn Cameron. Written for over seven months and released last November 2011, this five-track EP has already made its own buzz in the indie scene.

Line

Frostech
Being connected seems to be one of the most important and integral part of our life today. Everyone is connected 24X7 via Facebook, Twitter, BBM, E-mail and the likes. Of course there are apps like WhatsApp to help you in keeping the conversation going, but even it falls short in one department and that being Voice Calls. So, here we have a worthy alternative - Line. The app not only facilitates chatting, but also gives users the option to make voice calls over their active data connection. Created by Naver, a Japan based developer, this app really stands out among the many communication enabling apps on the market these days, providing users with the greater amount of fluidity and snappiness.
