Last October, Victoria Bergsman (The Concretes, Peter Bjorn & John) released her third studio LP, Other Worlds , under her solo project moniker, Taken By Trees . Inspired by a vacation Bergsman took to Hawaii, the LP's latest single is “Only You,” a posterchild for tropicalia featuring plenty of steel drums and slide guitar. The video for the track, on the other hand, provides a jarring visual contrast; released just last week, it features a blindfolded Bergsman amidst a number of carnally engaged couples. Sensual and surprising. Watch it above. [...]
LA-duo Classixx continue to stoke interest for their upcoming debut album, Hanging Gardens , with another excellent track, "Borderline". Subdued, shy and somewhat melancholic, "Borderline" plays the emotional counterpart of A-side " Holding On ," fading pensively where "Holding On" jumps up and shakes. Steady, plucking synths provide a warm but distant background for Jesse Kivel's ( Kisses ) vocals, which match the environment perfectly. Hanging Gardens will be released via Innovative Leisure May 14th, though "Hanging On" and "Borderline" are available as a [...]
Start your weekend off right with a new video from London trio Is Tropical that's guaranteed to put you in the mood for getting weird. This profoundly NSFW clip is bizarre and amusing from the get-go, yet manages to steadily heighten its absurdity until the bitter end. By roughly the four minute mark, it's become a bold exercise in very graphic and completely untethered fantastical hilarity. Watch it above. Oh, and it's a good song.

We've seen Thom Yorke and Four Tet collaborate many times in the past in the form of many Radiohead remixes and - along with Burial - the singles "Ego" and "Mirror" in 2011. Now Thom repays the favor through Atoms For Peace with this new remix for Four Tet's "Pyramid." The remix is specifically titled "rmx 1," suggesting there may be more mixes down the line. Let's hope so, because this 8-minute number, packed with glitchy electronic oscillations and extreme pitch shifting vocal samples, is worth hearing more of. Listen to the track below. STREAM: Four Tet - [...]
With the release of his new single, "Rivers," Bipolar Sunshine has proven that he can play both sides of the coin. His debut track, " Fire ," was a beautiful downtempo melody that tugged at our heart strings and gave us hope from the desperation that comes when relationships enter turmoil. Complete with beautiful vocals, lyrical genius, an incredible melody and a sample of every girl's favorite movie, The Notebook, he assembled a song that had every single puzzle piece perfectly put together. "Rivers" is of a different tune, trading [...]

Not to get all Almost Famous on you, but the closest I have ever come to death was while I was standing on an Athens, Georgia street with the members of Futurebirds . I was there for Athfest , the great music festival, and I had just met the guys in the band. We were watching some very pretty girl sing whose name I forget, and a bolt of lightning struck the building next to us. The top of the building exploded, more or less, sending brick and concrete falling down on the street. I swear [...]
Magnus August Høiberg, better known as Cashmere Cat , gives Miguel 's drugs, hugs and love song, " Do You... ," the remix treatment. Opening with his distinct, plucking arpeggios and snippets of Miguel's distant, floating inquisitions, CC's remix transforms the original song from a funky, soulful ballad into a futuristic hip-hop track. The Norwegian producer has drawn comparison to some of electronic music's new era of hip-hop and bass artists - including Rustie , Hudson Mohawke , and TNGHT - and this remix showcases exactly why. Vibrant, almost impossibly lush walls of sound, [...]
Lost Boy' s home recordings are full of lo-fi charm. His creative output is relentless; often recording several songs per month, he's a music machine assembly line with a distinct, in-your-face falsetto. There's a certain depth to his compositions, despite being only one man with an 8-track recorder. Check out "Chew", the first single off of his debut album, due out later this year. The video will send you on a cosmic journey to the center of the lo-fi universe. MP3: Lost Boy - "Chew"
Talk about a beat connection. To kick off their upcoming tour West Coast tour together, electro-pop trio Beat Connection teamed up with fellow Seattle-based production duo ODESZA for a remix of their track “Saola.” The result is tropical, psychedelic electro-pop, a vibrant and dreamy track made for the summer. Applying their upbeat style of chillwave, ODESZA kicks up the tempo and throws down the synth, transforming “Saola” into one sunny track deserving of your attention. Stream it below.
Eye Emma Jedi 's "Places" is the sort of guitar-driven, adrenaline-pumping indie rock we don't nearly get enough of these days. Hailing from Norway, these Scandinavian chaps spent 100 days outside the village of Marbella on the Southern coast of Spain recording their debut album. "Places" is our first taste of said LP and reminds us of Fang Island in all the right ways. Fun fact: Dan Croll used to play with these guys. So chew on that. Stream the track below.

Mr Little Jeans - AKA Norwegian songstress Monica Birkenes - drew accolades a few years back with her striking cover of Arcade Fire's "The Suburbs" and a string of impressive Neon Gold releases. Now she's back with "Oh Sailor," a hauntingly pretty indie-pop shanty that reflects her youth spent "in the middle of the woods" in the seaside town of Grimstad, with a catamaran builder for a dad. The combination of Mr Little Jeans' arresting dreampop sound and Strange Talk 's energetic indie disco makes this dancefloor-ready remix from the Aussie quartet one of our favorites of the [...]
What first made me fall in love with Superhumanoids was the band’s clever blend of pop songwriting and elegant, subtly experimental electronica. On new single “So Strange,” however, the LA trio strips back some of the synths and post-production, letting Sarah Chernoff’s unique vocals shine. The track, which was featured on The New York Times Magazine website on Monday , will be included on Superhumanoids’ forthcoming debut album Exhibitionists , out June 11th on Innovative Leisure . Watch a gorgeous live studio performance above, and then stream the original below. [...]
God, I love the tease of a two-chord song. The best of them - "Heroin," "Born In The USA," "Road to Nowhere" - work their simple structure into an atmosphere of endlessness and delayed, diffuse climax. But now that we're all addicted to hooks, it's rare to come across a pop song that doesn't play by the rules of payoff and resolution - and that's why I have been looping Jessie Ware's cover of "Love Thy Will Be Done" nonstop since she released it apropos of nothing other than her appreciation for this 1991 track, sung by soft-rocker [...]
If there's one thing I've learned, it's that when Neon Gold Records speaks, the world should listen. Well they have spoken, this time about a single from ASTR called "Operate." Hailing from the always musically impressive New York City, ASTR has emerged onto the blogosphere with ferocity, employing elements of indie R&B and hip-hop in a style not too unlike that of Until The Ribbon Breaks . It's hard not feeling like the coolest thing since sliced bread when "Operate" blasts through your car speakers with the windows down. Download it below. MP3: [...]
Baths has made a name for himself creating chillwave tunes that pack a heavy punch. The artist né Will Wiesenfeld first made his way into our hearts with " Aminals ," a single off his debut LP, Cerulean . The cute opening sample along with the track's lush, sun-drenched beat made for a nostalgic treat, bringing back memories of riding my kick-ass big wheel down the street. For the uninitiated, however, "Aminals" does not serve as the most well-rounded introduction to Baths. Wiesenfeld is much more than just a beat maker and a sampler; he constructs luscious [...]
Naturally, with a new recording of their debut single, "The City," it would only be a matter of time until The 1975 put out a second video for the track as well. Filmed in their trademark seductive monochrome, the video is a fine addition to the Manchester outfit's ever-expanding CV. Watch it above. You can catch The 1975 on tour this summer with The Neighbourhood. Dates here . STREAM: The 1975 - "The City"
Not long before they took the stage at New Noise at the Gibson Guitars Showroom earlier this month, we sat down for an interview with one of our favorite DC bands, GEMS . We ask them about their upcoming plans, the D.C. music community, their favorite bands of late and more. Big thanks to Jacob Zverina for his video mastery on this one. Watch it above.

What's not to like about Velociraptor ? Not only are we fans of their party-starting, beach-ready garage rock, but this Brisbane outfit is comprised of not three, not five...but twelve Aussies. Yes, TWELVE. We can't help but feel like that's the coolest thing ever. Velociraptor: you are hereby certified rad. Strap on your swimming shorts and stream their track "Walk On By" below. "Walk On By" comes off Velociraptor's self-titled EP, which comes out May 20th via Heart Throb Records . STREAM: Velociraptor - "Walk On By"
Surfer Blood have let out another track from their upcoming sophomore album, Pythons . “Slow Six” is an angsty alt-rock waltz reminiscent of the sound that made bands like Weezer and Built to Spill so popular in their heyday. Although the Florida based four-piece garnered accolades with their first LP, Astro Coast , the tracks that have been released from Pythons thus far suggest that Surfer Blood has really hit full stride.
