Miaou

I just stumbled across these guys, and feel bad for not discovering them sooner. Miaou is an indie rock trio formed in 1998, consisting of Tatsuki Hamasaki, and sisters Hiromi and Mayumi Hasegawa.

A lot of their music has a dreamy, optimistic quality to it. The songs are all instrumentals, with guitar playing a very prominent role as well as plenty of soothing synths and some organ too. There's touches of Smashing Pumpkins, and Radiohead in the guitar work, but with a less gloomy undertone to it all.

This is definitely sleepy Sunday stroll music if you ask me. It's really beautiful stuff.
