We’re into the sleek new bit of avant pop from Australian duo Twin Caverns titled “Pyramid”. The track features a spacious arrangement replete with an eerie and slightly at times dissonant guitar figure juxtaposed to the quieting vocal of singer Louise Miller.

Okay Kaya is a signing to XL’s Hot Charity imprint. The Norwegian-born artist’s new song “Damn, Gravity” is majestic in its minimalist lo-fi frame and very very effective as a debut.

“Living Room Flow” is a new ?loose track from massage vocal specialist Jhene Aiko. The Internet appears unclear on whether the new track is attached to a new release or not but for us “Living Room Flow” is welcome uptick in quality from the former B2K pal.

“Let Me Be” is the debut track from the new duo of Danish singer Marie Dahlstrom and Canadian producer Mawhs, Hans Island. On “Let Me Be”, the lead song from an upcoming self-titled EP, Mawhs’ low-touch and infectious in its repetition instrumental fits the perfect frame for Dahlstrom’s wonderfully emotive alto. Enjoy the B3 Premiere of “Let Me Be” from Hans Island.

Oakland’s Waterstrider impress again on third stream and title track from upcoming debut, “Nowhere Now”. The band’s use of unconventional and exotic polyrhythms and non-traditional indie rock instrumentation color Waterstrider’s refreshing and infinitely melodic sound of which “Nowhere Now” is an A+ example. Nowhere Now is out April 13th.
