The latest upstart crew from the fertile wilds of Brighton UK we’re digging are Thyla and their song “Pristine Dream”. “Pristine Dream” earns it’s dough on a big cacophonous chorus highlighted by singer Millie Duthie’s outsized lead vocal. “Pristine Dream” is out now on REX Records.
We’re very pleased to premiere “Center” the new track from Dresage. A stylistically varied blend of genres and sound palettes, “Center” nimbly mixes elements of synth pop and more cooled-out songwriter music with good and unexpected choices in instrumentation (it’s almost like two great songs from far apart genres made into one whole that sounds totally fresh and new). This is what really caught our attention with “Center” and with Dresage, the track sounds like nothing else out while ultimately still being very very listenable. Stream the B3SCI Premiere of “Center” from Dresage below.
What a song. Newcomer Atticus Thatcher comes to us originally from South Carolina. “Make a Move” is propelled by a subtle but no less potent funky groove and Thatcher’s cool quick fire percussive vocal cadence. From the track’s outset, “I’ve got this whiskey in my hand…” the melodic phrasing is focused and sharp, and for the listener (and likely most within earshot) it’s all toe taps and head bobs from the start. We’ve been jamming “Make a Move” in heavy rotation for a few days now so we’re especially pleased to share this one. Stream the B3SCI Premiere of “Make a Move” by Atticus Thatcher below.
UK production duo Crystal Bats make their B3SCI debut on the strength of the A+ pop songwriting of “Killing Me” an R&B-tinged track instrumentally evocative of it’s LA-centric lyric.
“Hot Simian Weather” is the new ?Can and 60’s-inspired new track from the excellent Palm Honey.
Leeds UK production crew Gotts Street Park team with vocalist Grand Pax for spotlessly constructed after hours creeper “Control”.
“Sad Boy” artist Gabriel Black streams second track online “Pine Trees”. A plaintive minimal number built on some slick use of hip-hop vocal cadence and spare gut-punch guitar stabs. Enjoy it below.
Casablanca Records man STéLOUSE links up with Dance Gavin Dance singer Tilian for cooly melodic new electronic pop track “Bones”.

The free show also includes a DJ set from KCRW’s Marion Hodges and jumps off at 10 PM so be square or be there.
