Masego – Navajo

Virginia artist Masego rings up a jazzy instrumental and a tranche of gloomy soul samples to set up a sparkling set off A+ melodic stylings (that “I swear that’s eye on me” run is especially nice) on new one “Navajo”. Into it.

Premiere: School of X – Words

B3SCI is very pleased to premiere a new radio edit of “Words” from Rasmus Littauer aka drummer for MØ aka School of X. “Words”, the track is a tremendously accomplished bit of pop production and songwriting, carefully connecting several eras and styles of pop and alternative pop into a cool cohesive, very listenable track. About “Words”, Rasmus says, “My songs are usually about a state of mind. It’s rarely a narrative. “Words” is kind of a combination of these to. It’s about fiercely wanting something but at the same time not being able to let go of what you already have. It’s a feeling I think everyone recognizes in all aspects of life, including myself.” Stream below the B3 Premiere of the radio edit for “Words” and look for School of X’s at this month’s Roskilde Festival.

Anna of the North – Lovers

NO-NZ duo Anna of the North announce debut LP with stream of title track “Lovers”. “Lovers” for all it’s vibe-y/trendy production nods is subtly and really supremely anthemic and catchy (that “show a little loving / shine a little light on” melodic bit is as good as just about anything else out right now). Lovers is out September 8 on Different Recordings.
