Chuunes

I'm determined for Novemember to be the busiest blog month to date and can think of no better way to kick things off than with an introduction to my current obsession, Muchuu.

Muchuu (pronouced "Moo Chew") are George and Milky, an impossibly cutesy brother and sister combo that produce beautiful, shimmery synth-pop. According to their rather excellently designed web-site, 20-year-old singer Milky "writes lyrics about dreams, things she sees on her adventures, imagination and escapism; appreciating the real things, the little things that make you smile", while 18-year-old George provides the synths and harmonies on a keyboard he bought for £29.

I'd describe their stuff as sounding a bit like Frou Frou crossed with Ellie Goulding but it's probably best you decide for yourself:

Somebody Tell Me



Coral and Shell



Patchwork



Adventure We Go
