So another day here at ++HQ and thanks to our international crew we bumped into this not-yet discovered gem! The band is called Kim Ki O and consists of two girls from Turkey. They have a Woody Allen-esque humour in their lyrics and their music is something like ambient-synth-pop with a hint of indie rock. All that in one CD? Yep, all that and more, because even though we don’t understand their lyrics, we have been told that they are incredibely funny, dark and intelligent without trying to be any of those!

And what’s even more exciting is that you can download this record from the official Kim Ki O website. There you will also find their first home-studio released EP and if you’re digging them as much as we do you can even get a T-shirt to show some serious respect!

We’re not going to bore you their bio because you can read it on their MySpace, but be sure to read it because it’s hilarious! Word on the web is that they might have a record deal with a Swedish label because ++favourite Jens Lekman supposedly really digs Kim Ki O’s music. And you know that if people like that back you up, there can’t be that much wrong with you. Top tracks off this six song Self-Made Home Record are ‘B Yuzunun Ikinci Parcasi’ and ‘Ne Yapsam Anlarsin?’
