It's always nice to hear something new from the mysterious SBTRKT even if it's not an official step towards an album. Per the SoundCloud post he's back in the studio working on ep's, album, etc., but there is no plan for the track "gamelena". Thanks for sharing SBTRKT. SBTRKT - "gamelena"
Gold Panda - "Mountain" Gold Panda marks his first official release since 20102s Lucky Shiner with this 73. Derwin himself explains the tracks as such: Listening to ‘Mountain’ again on a trip to Japan over New Year, we flew directly over Mt.Fuji and it seemed to just fit what I was seeing out of [...]
We last spoke of Chicago's California Wives with their 2011 single "Tokyo". Now the group is back with a new track and an upcoming album on Vagrant Records. "Marianne" mixes Springsteen style anthemic hooks with subdued Pains of Being Pure at Heart vocals. It may have been a while since we've heard from the guys, [...]
The Very Best are back from last year's Super Mom mixtape with the new single "Yoshua Alikuti". The duo, made up of Malawian singer Esau Mwamwaya and London producer Johan Hugo, is set to release the new studio album MTMTMK July 17th. Check out the "A Milli" inspired video HERE and the awesome Nadastrom remix below. The Very [...]
I'm liking these guys more and more. Today the trio dropped their new song "Let's Go Home". The track is 25% nostalgia, 25% hopeful, and 50% synthy-awesomeness. Enjoy it here and head to their website to download. Carousel - "Let's Go Home"
I came across this track via Insound (give us money). No? Worth a shot. File this one under "New to Me". Roanoke, VA's Eternal Summers have been around for a couple years making catchy indie pop. Checking out some of their older stuff it sounds like they've really refined their sound. Going from a duo [...]
Reverb-laden, guitar driven, indie rock may have hit the saturation point in the music scene but occasionally there's a band that makes you think, "maybe there's room for one more". DIIV is that band. Zachary Cole Smith came up with the project as he was touring with Beach Fossils last year. Originally recorded as a bedroom [...]
StB fav The Knocks just released a new single via SoundCloud entitled "Learn to Fly". There really isn't much information other than being labeled Magic in the genre block. They weren't joking. Enjoy! The Knocks - "Learn to Fly"
We had to wait three years for a glimpse of a new mewithoutyou, but after just a month we have our second sound from the upcoming release. "East Enders Wives" is less of a rocker more reminiscent of their last two albums focusing more on the lyrical prowess of lead singer Aaron Weiss. Ten Stories [...]
In a very poetic press release Twin Shadow released "Five Seconds" the first single from the upcoming album Confess today. The record is apparently inspired by a motorcycle rides in LA after a long hiatus after an accident. The track has me really looking forward to the July 10th release. Twin Shadow - "Five Seconds"
This is just an amazing track. Little needs to be said about a musical veteran like Bobby Womack but his upcoming album is a bit out of the ordinary. From the first taste of the record "Please Forgive My Heart" it's not hard to tell that Damon Albarn is involved as co-producer alongside Richard Russell [...]
Following my epic weekend at Coachella is another great weekend in LA. To kick start your own check out this little playlist. Starting off with Penguin Prison's remix of the new Miike Snow track that has made its way around the internet and back several times over. Next is UK Draper's huge edit of Strange [...]
Here's a pretty awesome collab between StB fav Theophilus London and Harlem upstart A$AP Rocky. DJ Carnage provides the Motown horn infused beat while the two flow about some Australian swag. Theophilus London & ASAP Rocky - "Big Spender"
Aesop Rock is back with his first album since 20072s None Shall Pass and it's shaping up to be pretty great already. Both the artwork (above) for Skelethon and the first single "Zero Dark Thirty" are awesome. Skelethon is due out July 10th via Rhymesayers. Aesop Rock "Zero Dark Thirty"
After a year of internet silence the producer with only one other track to his name is stirring up the internet with his smooth electro R&B. Jai Paul may have had some help getting exposure when Drake remixed his "BTSTU" into "Dreams Money Can Buy" but 400K plays 10 days after dropping a track says [...]
One of my all time favorites are creeping back into relevance with their first album since 2009. mewithoutyou will be releasing Ten Stories via their own label Pine Street Music Collection on May 15th. "February, 18783, not to be confused with "January, 1979", is the opener and finds that the guys haven't lost their touch. [...]

I just checked and the last Teen Daze song has been pushed to the next page so I feel like it's okay to post this. "The Future" is the third single off his upcoming release All of Us, Together. There's something about compressed beats and arpeggiators set to a hazy ambience that gets me, maybe it [...]
Childish Gambino's tour might be on hold due to a fractured foot but "Eat Your Vegetables" says he's still hard at work. Dropping anti-similes* than an entire Lil Wayne album, Glover takes a stab at hip-hop's current wave of monotone, stoned out style and pulls it off with a tad more wit. I am a [...]
Our favorite DJ duo The Knocks dropped their official remix of Dragonette's newest single "Let it Go" yesterday via soundcloud and it is, in a word, dope. They add their typical percussive flare and a stellar drop. Another example where the remix outdoes the original by a mile. Dragonette - "Let It Go (The Knocks [...]
