Black Honey, the great Duly Noted Records band (The Night VI, IYES) and author of “Sleep Forever”; one of our favorite track debuts of the year so far, are equally strong on jangly and melodic UK rock of “Teenager”.

Tei Shi, the Brooklyn-based quickly-rising songstress who impressed earlier in the year on singles “Nevermind The End” and “M&Ms” and on a great feature for Glass Animals, turns in a great cover/remix of Bync’s “No Angel” constructed in Tei Shi’s distinctive modern pop style.

‘Yonce comes with the predictable, hip-hop linkbait, “elevator incident”-referencing new remix to her hit “Flawless”. The remix’s feature artist Nicki Minaj is the track’s clear victor as the young Ms. Miraj puts down an immediate set of some of her best bars to date. Beyonce and Nicki Minaj, google’em.

Internet lightning rod Trinidad Jame$ is no longer a component of the roster of Def Jam. Jame$, who signed a reported $2 million deal w/ the label in 2012, released the decidedly contemplative “Doin’ Me” shortly after announcing the Def Jam departure over the weekend. We like it.

Well done. “Sync” is part of Cloud Castle Lake’s “Dandelion” EP, out September 22 on Happy Valley Records.
