The 60’s Nico/French girl-pop leaning “No Shelter” is new from Blouse. Single #1 from the band’s forthcoming Imperium record (due next month), “No Shelter” marks a bit of diversion stylistically for the Portland-based band vs. their 2011 more dreampop-y debut as the guitar/vocal are both much more up front in the mix, the synthesizers are all but vacated and the rhythms are somewhat emboldened. We’re digging it.

Vet hip hop producer Jake One pulls quite the remix rabbit out of his hat w/ this slowed (& might as well be throwed) take on Portugal. The Man’s (!) “Evil Friends” single. That. And oh yeah, it features a cool rhyming bro that goes by the name Danny Brown too.

OZ producer Thomas Jack on the compact, minimalist acoustic guitar-driven remix of Ryan Tedder & Company’s “Counting Stars”. Mr. Jack has achieved quite a clever little groove with his edit. Well done.

Johnny Stimson, who was anointed to the level of B3 fave with his excellent “Human Man” single, returns w/ his latest, an 80’s pop-inspired paean to one of popular music’s most doted on bits of subject matter, rich girls. It’s “Daddy’s Money” and it’s live on B3SCI; go pack those big bags out of Saks Fifth Ave.

The stunning “Bodyweight” is new from UK songwriter Annie Eve. Built on a looped-vocal figure, beautiful flourishes of harmony and synth voicings and Annie Eve’s irresistible vulnerable-at-that-very-moment singing, “Bodyweight” is really really good. A+++ The “Bodyweight” single is out October 14th on Young & Lost Club.

Fractures who impressed earlier this year with their big blog hit “Twisted” hop on remix duty for another B3 fave Snakadaktal’s very good “Hung On Tight”. Fractures select for some rather impressive embellishments in the beats and instrumental; including that perfectly appropriated harp @ 3:45, which continues to just crush us w/ every listen. Snakadaktal’s debut Aussie LP is slated for a UK/US release this fall.
