Making creating use of Imogen Heap's original track, "Wait It Out", Reverb Junkie has made the instrumental sound as those it's a missing Frou Frou track. Great job indeed. The chorus is just lovely.

Instant love on this track. Dripping with Prince's Kiss vibe and flavor it's hard not to fall in love with this. Wait for the snare to come on the second verse and I dare you tell me that ain't sexy. This is taken from SebastiAn's full length "Total". SebastiAn - Love In Motion (Ft. Mayer Hawthorne)
Wonderful use of samples and excellent manipulation of sonic elements make this track unique. Skylar's voice is the reason I've liked the very top 40 collaborations (e.g., Love the Way You Lie by Eminem) she's done in the past. This track is taken from her forthcoming album, "Invinsible". Skylar Grey - Dance Without You

Oh my, a very strong contender for one of the best tracks of 2011 thus far. Catchy, poppy and well produced, what more do you need? Love the use of "white noise" as a subtle hi-hat on this track. Quick bio : Sneaky Sound System are a Sydney-based Australian dance music group consisting of guitarist and producer Black Angus (Angus McDonald) and vocalist Connie Mitchell. Their third album, From Here to Anywhere, is due for release in August 2011. Sneaky Sound System - We Love
Slightly punk, slightly LCD Soundsystem, slightly Human League-esque vocals but oh so hypnotic is this track by Diamond Rings (aka John O'Reagan). Diamond Rings - Something Else bio from The Line of Best Fit Diamond Rings is the musical alter-ego of Toronto-based multiplatform artist John O, first conceived in the summer of 2009. A 73 and home-made video for his first bedroom-recorded single "All Yr Songs" helped to propel Diamond Rings into the spotlight, first garnering attention from Canadian blogs like Chromewaves, and then eventually a "Best [...]
As a Beatles fan, I typically cringe when an artist covers a Beatles track. They typically fall way short and come off as a bad karaoke singer. This is not the case when Andre 3000 took on the Beatles classic, "All Together Now". On his cover version, Andre 3000 adds his special blend of funk, electronic, and soul takes this classic to new highest. Andre 3000 - All Together Now (The Beatles Cover)
Yes yet another wonderful track featuring the vocals of Anthony Hegarty, who by the way is no stranger here on Audiodrums (read here and here ). This time, he has teamed up with Jessica 6 on this 902s esque house track. Jessica 6 - Prisoner Of Love (ft Antony Hegarty) Bio from Peacefrog : Formed in 2008, Jessica 6 is a hypnotic Brooklyn-based trio that pushes the boundaries of nu-disco and R&B. "It all started when [...]
Rather dreamy Drum n Bass track from Calibre's 2010 release, "Even If". Calibre - Even If
So good to hear Junior Boys again. This is from their forthcoming album, "It's All True". This track is sure to make my "best of 20113 list. Also looks like the UK pavillion at the 2010 EXPO in Shanghai was used as the album cover art: Junior Boys - A Truly Happy Ending
If you like Gotan Project or the Cafe Del Mar series of chillout music with International flavor, then this track will be a win for you. The track makes use of stems from the soundtrack written and produced by Hans Zimmer from the movie: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Also features Rodrigo y Gabriela on acoustic guitars. With this mix, The Reverb Junkie made an incredible arrangement and went one step further by writing her song on-top of it. From which I took the track and [...]
This caught me off guard since I think of Bibio as more of a front runner in the folktronica scene but this is a total rock jam which is begging for RAC remix. Think Phoenix-esque type indie rock. This track is taken from his most recent album, "Mind Boken". Another stand out track for me on the album is "K is for Kelson". Has this Jackson 5 meets Vampire Weekend vibe that is sticky sweet. Bibio - Take Off Your Shirt Other album tracks here: [...]
With a whimsical style and just enough twist from keeping it from the realms of being silly, Gangpol & Mit play with electronic textures like chip tune and create something uniquely theirs. This track is taken from the groups latest effort titled, The 1000 Softcore Tourist People Club. Gangpol Und Mit - The 1000 People Band part 3
Martin is set to release his fifth studio album entitled, "Smash". Martin teams up with Dragonette for an energetic ride on this electro pop "smash" hit. See what I did there?

Martin Solveig - Hello (ft.Dragonette) (Single Edit) Martin Solveig & Dragonette - "Hello" Lyrics I could stick around and get along with you Hello It doesn't really mean that I'm into you Hello You're alright but I'm here darling [...]
Funky smooth is the order of the day from Plastic Plates , this remix is pure sun. Body Language - Social Studies (Plastic Plates Remix) Body Language EP
Sooooo good to have Lamb back in action again. It's been ages, to be exact eight years, since we've heard from them and they do not disappoint on their latest effort, entitled, " 5 " (as in their fifth studio album). They still have that deep throbbing bass in their sound, but now it's topped with bit-crushing drums sounds as opposed to the more traditional drum n bass sounds that adorned their early work. Vocalist Lou Rhodes sounds as good as always. Lamb - Another Language
