"five minutes with you"

The Honeydrips is the solo project of Mikael Carlsson, formerly of Dorotea. To my ears, every Honeydrips song I've heard seems to have a different flavour to it, although 80s influences come to the fore in every single one.

(Lack Of) Love Will Tear Us Apart, featuring guest vocals from Hanna Goranson from Cat5, stormed into my affections last year with its insistent bassline and dreamy vocals. (Right click and save as)

Now I Wouldn't Know What To Do has usurped it with twee loveliness! A simple, beautiful sentiment with melody and instrumentation to match.

Both songs were released as singles and also feature on The Honeydrips' album, Here Comes The Future, which can be purchased on CD from Sincerely Yours or as a download from Klicktrack (a mere £4.40 for the album in mp3 form!).
