Owl City
December 11th 2011 01:10
Rural Minnesota's got themselves some great easy listening.
Owl City is an electronica music project by Adam Young. Young, singer-songwriter, and master of several different instruments, is the creative body behind the project. Young's music is a completely electronic creation, and the hooks, lyrics, beats, and melodies will have the stuff sticking in your head for weeks. No Joke
Owl City grabbed it's first bit of fame through myspace. Young himself advocated himself as an active and accomodating online personality, and he earned himself a following.
The first EP "Of June" was released in 2007. Click the links below to hear some favourites from this album.
Hello Seattle - This one was actually remixed again on Ocean Eyes, but the old one's are still on youtube.
Designer Skyline
The Airway
In 2008, Owl City quickly followed up with "Maybe I'm Dreaming." Click the links below to hear the favourites from this one.
On The Wing - This has got to be the all time Owl City favourite for me
I'll meet you there
West Coast Friendship
In the beginning of 2009, Owl City signed to the major label Universal Republic. After an EP and one studio album, Adam Young is on a major label. Owl City's second studio album Ocean Eyes was released in July of 2009, and this is when Adam Young hit it big. You know that fireflies song?

Fireflies
Umbrella Beach
Vanilla Twilight
Hello Seattle(Remix) - A house/techno remix of the song, it's a great beat.
At the beginning of 2011, Owl City released it's latest album "All Things Bright and Beautiful." With the best production yet, the upbeat and soulful tracks on this record make it sit comfortably among Adam Young's other work. Observing the progression between albums is an aboslute pleasure. Young develops as both a musician, a songwriter, and a producer.

Galaxies
Deer In The Headlights
Alligator Sky ft. Sean Christopher
Check out this song without the rapper in the verses.

Adam Young has done some work in other projects as well. Sky Sailing, one of those projects which contains more piano/acoustic arrangements, is captivating. Here's my favourite from Ski Sailing.
The acoustic guitar in this song is fantastic.
Brielle
All in all, Adam Young is a talented dude, and I wrote this because I want to expose more people to his music. Go to Owl City's website below.
