Australian band The Swiss get their new single for Kitsune remixed in the style of 2013 indie house by blogger favorite Amtrac and it’s quite glorious (and perhaps one of Amtrac’s best remixes to date). The Swiss’ “Kiss to Kiss” single also features remixes from Breakbot and Pyramid and will see a release Nov. 11.

Dan Croll’s latest is the warm & folky (& very good) “Home”. Outfitted w/ the same skilled pop writing and derived again from Croll’s refreshingly varied musical palette, “Home” is another walkover win for the rising UK artist. “Home” is out November 25.

A friend of mine told me to check this Austin, TX band called Future Death. I took some time to dig into their just released self-titled 7 track EP. I must say I was blown away. The pure energy and raw power of this EP really separated itself from other releases that have came out recently and it was a nice breath of fresh air. The distorted vocals and sporadic drumming work well to create a great first record and would love to see these guys live. Scope “Trickin” below.

JUSWRHT strikes again. First it was the Drake/Sampha burner “Too Much” now he takes a different route reworking Rhye’s “The Fall”. Needless to say, after one listen we were hooked. Still not much is known about the LA based producer in the public eye, but we’re betting that we expect more great things.

We’re really into the surf rock w/ melodies of Toronto band Invasions and their track for “Rosy”. We hope, though, that our Torontonian friends take their beachside rock and roll south for the winter as we’ve been to Toronto in February and that ish is icy; plus we’d love to see these dudes play L.A. Invasions have an LP out October 25th.

Jimmy Tait (not one dude, but five Aussies out of Melbourne) remind a bit of PJ Harvey on the visceral minor-keyed stomper “Eyes”. Sampled from Jimmy Tait’s Golden LP, “Eyes” ticks all the right impactful you need to listen to this right now rock and roll boxes (to start: a terrific, gets you in the gut vocal; tuneful, memorable but still challenging melodies; and an instrumental suited up w/ all manner of interesting extra textures – tinny organ, great harmonic guitar leads, etc). Listen now.

The bimodal “No Gun” with its sunny pop chorus but broody gritty verses reflects in a way songstress Naomi Pilgrim’s geography (she’s Swedish via Barbados).

We’re digging the new Chain of Memories EP, from L.A.-based electronic musician Memory Cards. Spin below, the lights down melancholic space-trap of “Designated”, our pick from the six song set.
