Here’s a video from an indie folk outfit I featured some time ago. Promising!
New Music: Thundercat
I gave away tickets to see this guy months ago, but I never really properly heard his music. It’s beautiful, indulgent soul and chillwave. Check out here.
Yellow
I’m not Coldplay’s biggest fan, but this is a pretty good remix from PINEO.
Tropics
Chris Ward (aka Tropics) performs tracks for an idrewitself Music Room Session. Dreamy.
First Listen: Braids ‘Amends’
A beautiful bit of atmospheric dream pop from Braids. Their new 12” ‘In Kind // Amends’ is out June 10th on Full Time Hobby.
Free Download: Marina and The Diamonds + Charli XCX ‘Just Desserts’
Marina and The Diamonads and Charlie XCX are giving you a slice of pop to take away, produced by Dan Dare.
New Music: Buchanan
New Music: Boardwalk
Sublime and subdued shoegaze from LA. Check out here.
First Watch: Meg Myers ‘Heart Heart Head’
As far as angry epic pop videos go, this is new one from Meg Myers pretty angry and epic. It’s slightly terrifying, but very captivating.
Free Download: KLP ‘Roll With It’
KLP is giving away this deliciously dark electro track from her new EP ‘Revolution’ (out today) for free.
First Watch: Elliphant ‘Make It Juicy’
This has actually been out since April but I only just got round to watching it now. Dirty, gritty Swedish pop as Elliphant does best.
Golden Girls – Kinetic (Jeremy Olander Remix)
Jeremy Olander does a nice remix of a club classic.
New Music: T.W.i.N.S.
You probably won’t hear anything like this for the rest of the day. To quote from their bio, ‘T.W.I.N.S, Laurence and Hugo, first met on London’s club scene a few years back and cemented their artistic relationship by composing music for a gay porn series called “Indie Boys”.’ So, there you go. Check out here.
Free Download: Tinush ‘Roxanne’
This track by Tinush has horns, house and jazz… Weird and wonderful.
Free Download: Wild Cub ‘Hidden In The Night’ (SAMUEL Remix)
Indulge yourselves with this free SAMUEL remix of Wild Cub’s ‘Hidden In The Night’. On May 28th, the band will launch a special vinyl release of their debut album on No Shame Records. The vinyl will be stocked at selected outlets across the world, handpicked by the band. London dwellers can pick up a copy at Rough Trade East.
Why am I so shy?
How cute is this? It’s Lorine Chia performing a stripped back rendition of ‘So Shy’, a cover interpretation of ‘Another Rainy Day’ by Corrine Bailey Rae.
New Music: Sheppard
