The Sound of Young Java 3 : We'll Be The Summer

Concluding this amazing series of Indonesian C86 indie pop collections we have, as before, 4 songs by 4 bands, some familiar to me and some totally unknown. Starting off with the known is Annemarie with a typically excellent piece of girl vocal led jangle pop "Blue sky on holiday". An infectious melody and some great harmonies. Sunny Summer Day return (they were also on volume 1) with "In summertime". Now this song is absolutely fantastic, a perfect pop song in every way.

Pop At Summer also return with the keyboard led "Sunny day parade" which has a great backing though the vocals sound like they were recorded in a shed. Still not a bad song. Finally Sharesprings "I love to see you" bring some noise and indie thrash to proceedings, they are a bit Boyracer and bands of a similar ilk. So another brilliant collection of Indo twee pop. Bring on volume 4!
