Happy first of April (April Fool's Day) and Easter Monday. I was suppose to have a phone interview with one member of Purity Ring on my radio show . But due to rehearsing for the start of the tour, the interview didn't happen. So I had to scurry to make a load whack of songs to play for the one hour. If you missed the show today, have a listen ! Part one: Part two: Part [...]

![FALL IN LOVE AGAIN TO KISSES [STREAM]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4857716_lg.jpg)
Los Angeles dream pop duo (and recently engaged couple), KISSES , are readying their second LP, Kids in LA , with the release of the third single from the record, "Huddle". Jesse Kivel's nostalgic vocals lend themselves to the track's high school dance circa 1987 quality, while Zinzi Endmunson's intricate synth work builds the latter half of the song into something entirely more our century. Kids in LA is out May 14, 2013 on Cascine.
Exclusive: The Hub announces a new animated show in development.
New track from one of LA's hippest electronic duos, Kisses. The song starts out with as a slow burner, then gets a little hotter during the oh-so-catchy dance infused chorus. Enjoy, and keep an eye for the album "Kids in L.A." out May 14 on Cascine.

"Huddle" is the latest track to be released from Kisses' forthcoming album, 'Kids In L.A.,' which is out on May 14th via Cascine. Take A Listen: Huddle from Kisses

On the brand new Kisses single “Huddle”, we’re in the middle of a high school football-fueled romance, where 80’s inspired synths reign supreme. How this would have fit so perfectly on a number of John Hughes films. When this beat drops, get ready.

Synthpop boy/girl wonder Kisses is prepping to release their new project Kids In L.A. on May 15th and the duo has surfaced the latest single to be featured on the forthcoming LP. "Huddle" is another well produced electronic pop effort that will surely make your weekend much groovier.

The top mp3s have gone through many incarnations since the beginning of Consequence of Sound in 2007. What used to be an exhaustive roundup of all the singles, remixes, covers, and undiscovered gems emailed to us any given week evolved into a compilation whittled down to our 10 favorite new songs. For 2013, we’re again changing up the format with the hope of giving our selections some added weight. We’re still posting about our 10 favorite songs, but they’ll be ordered in quality from 10-1. Who takes home #1 this week? You’ll have to click ‘Next’ to find [...]
Il y a plus d'un mois, nous apprenions que le duo Kisses s'apprêtait à sortir son deuxième album Kids In LA et nous avions eu le plaisir de découvrir un premier extrait avec The Hardest Part . C'est donc avec joie que l'on découvre un deuxième morceau issu de cet album. Il s'agit de Huddle , un track pop d'une grande tendresse avec des mélodies qui nous emmène très loin, sur les côtes de Los Angeles. Impossible de s'arrêter de l'écouter ! Pour rappel, Kids In La sortira le 14 [...]

Loving this great new single from LA's Kisses . Kisses have been an OTR mainstay for awhile now having given us many great summer jams in the past. This one titled "Huddle" from their forthcoming album Kids in LA is a bit different, taking on more of a heavy 80's influence than their past works, but when is that ever a bad thing?
After being away for a few years, the new-wavey Los Angeles duo Kisses returned with a new single called " Funny Heartbeat ." Now they're getting ready to release their sophomore album Kids In L.A. , and we've already heard " The Hardest Part ." Now they're sharing the elastic, New Order-esque "Huddle," which is colder and more mechanized than the bubbly fare we're used to hearing from them. Listen to it below. Read More...

There's something about the footloose and fancy free glistening disco pop from Kisses that you can;t help just hitting your groove to. 80s snap beats and a funky groove get you foot tapping, before the crooning vocals and synth-line sweetly pure you to the dancefloor. Huddle is the second single of Kisses' LP Kids in LA and should be out on 14th May. It doesn't hurt that this is being put out by our friends Cascine in the US and Norwegian label Splendour here in the UK either... [...]
Kisses continue to roll out more from their Kids in LA album. Similar to Summer Camp in their embrace of an America gone by, "Huddle" sounds like the work of two people, something duos all too often don't accomplish. The guitar ticking and getting caught in the knots of itself like guitars do in songs by The xx , the synths finger-pricking along the perimeter and during the chorus, bumping into the ground. Kids in LA will be in our hands and ears May 14 thanks to [...]

Here's a little synth pop jam to help push you through the hump day. Los Angeles natives Kisses recently dropped Huddle , the second single off their upcoming project Kids In L.A . Kisses is comprised of Jesse Kivel and Zinzi Edmundson , and since their debut album The Heart of the Night Life back in 2010, they have gained the reputation of being quite the groovy little twosome. With a throwback 802s vibe mixed with an indie disco sound, Kisses ' Huddle is a track that might [...]

We've already heard the infectious first single "The Hardest Part" , and now the Los Angeles-based duo Kisses have shared a second track, called "Huddle", with '80s-inspired synth melodies, guitars, and smooth vocals. Give it a spin above, and blow kisses. "Huddle" is taken from the duo's upcoming sophomore effort "Kids In LA", co-produced by Pete Wiggs of Saint Etienne and Tim Larcombe, which drops on May 14th on Cascine. Just in case you missed it, check out Classixx's latest track "Borderline", featuring Kisses’ Jesse Kivel on [...]

Kisses have a new album called Kids In LA out in a couple of months time (May 14th, via Cascine Records) and they've released another cut from it in the form of the track "Huddle." Evoking the sadder vocal melodies from their debut album The Heart of the Nightlife , the track is a minor key exercise in what they do best, which makes the sun-bleached cover art (above) seem a little misplaced. "Meet me in the middle," Jesse Kivel sings, and it sounds like we might have to - somewhere between the expectations [...]
