Fear of Tigers – The Legend of Ian Usher

fearoftigers

Fear of Tigers continues down the road of great production. Just released upon the world is “The Legend Of Ian Usher”, an unf-tastic, synthy funk jam that is just too infectious to listen to at a low volume. A bad day is damn near impossible with this track on the stereo. By Desiree Autobee

Mapei – Don’t Wait (Giraffage Remix)

mapei

SF producer whiz kid Giraffage puts a nice flip on the much hyped Stockholm native Mapei’. Throwing some signature synths and 808 hits over the soulful vocalizing of “Don’t Wait”, Giraffage makes another incredible remix. Favorite part of the remix has to be that breakdown at 2:00. Straight head-nod inducing. By Brian Litwin

Moon Boots – Don’t Ask Why (Feat. Kyiki)

moonboots

The new single from Brooklyn by way of Chicago spaceman Moon Boots is a slight step away from his bouncy, tropical disco feel. More raw and full of emotion “Don’t Ask Why” features the vocal talent of Crystal Fighters’ Kyiki, who shines on this track. This latest offering from the French Express solider is his closest thing to a pop song yet. By Brian Litwin

Blackbird Blackbird – There Is Nowhere

blackbirdblackbird

Blackbird Blackbird’s “This Is Nowhere” is one of the most melodically stunning songs of the year. BB’s Tangerine Sky is due in May on OM.

Turtle – Opposite of Low

turtle

“Opposite of Low” is the second single from “Who Knows”, the new EP from Glasgow-based artist Jon Cooper a/k/a Turtle. “Opposite of Low” is built around a simmering drone of menacing electronics, clattering percussion, and a hypnotic repeating vocal figure; it’s the supporting elements, however, where the track is particularly special as Cooper expertly bends and molds varying swells of synth and other dynamics to create compelling points of tension and tautness. “Who Knows” is out March 3rd on Beatnik.

Tei Shi – Nevermind the End (Saint Pepsi Remix)

teishi

One of the hottest emerging names in the indie dance space Saint Pepsi adds his signature “velvet touch” to “Nevermind the End” by BK artist Tei Shi. With “Nevermind the End”, SP selects for a warm mix of soothing synth atmospheres and comforting vocal layering; a perfectly concocted elixir to de-stress with. We’re into it.

Oceaán – Turned Away

oceaan

Oceaán’s self-titled debut EP is shaping up to be a really handsome offering. This latest cut ‘Turned Away’ is pushing in the same direction as the likes of Ben Khan – with it’s engulfing swirl of vocals wrapped around a melay of percussion and distorted synths that leap out of the mix like solar flares. The entire package will be released March 31st on Chess Club Records and this world will be all the better for it. By Nathan Hetherington

Madeon – Cut The Kid

madeon

Madeon, the fresh-faced wunderkind (or I guess in this case “enfant prodige”?) of French house drops today an unreleased demo recorded several years prior. The high energy track, however, sounds entirely fresh somehow; indicating (by its release if anything), a fresh direction from one of the dance genre’s best talents/prospects/hopes.
