Additional OpTic NoISe compilations and dropbox files

  • archeology

    Former archaeological students Jason and Daniel create eclectic, earthy, almost hymnal sounding songs. A blending of sorts--part Arcade Fire, part Bon Iver, part Death Cab For Cutie sentimentality--melded to form sweeping hooks and harmonic crescendos of folk pop loveliness.

  • maniac

    Sean Harris, former lead vocalist of The Matches, and Jake Grigg from Something With Numbers teamed up in Australia to record their first band release “Mania”. The hooky, infectious strength of The (sadly now defunct) Matches is evident, paired with foot-stomping, sing-along choruses.

  • friday mile

    Portland artists Friday Mile reminds us of the Glen Hansard/Marja Tuhkanen pairing from the Once soundtrack, in a more poppier, jauntier way. Bouncy fresh beats accompany bittersweet stories and elegant alternating boy/girl vocals, making for a sweet musical tenderness.

  • shayna zaid & the catch

    Malaysian born Shayna Zaid’s sultry vocals have drawn comparisons to Norah Jones and Feist. The band’s blend of folk, indie pop and gypsy cabaret have made its home in New York, with tours to Southeast Asia and up and down the East Coast.
