Give this a spin. Just when you think things couldn’t possibly get any hotter, a blistering heater of a sax solo blows your mind at around 3:20. That’s a real “Summersweat” for you, so hot that it only gets hotter. If you’re into Winnipeg collective Royal Canoe then be sure to pick up their new Purple and Gold release. We promise it’s well worth your next available 18 minutes. Also, if you’re located in SoCal, catch the band performing at The Satellite in Silverlake, Los Angeles this Saturday night (9/22).

Well fed psychedelia here from a new Copenhagen group known as The Wands. This blahblah-blow track has been a serious fever to our speakers as of late. The band’s debut EP is scheduled to drop early November. Be sure to stay tuned for more “magic” to come on The Wands.

Couple of tones we’re liking in the latest we’ve heard from Idles. Mostly it offers up something we’ve been missing from songs (in general) in a while, some balls.

Something new from Dog is Dead’s anticipated debut album All Our Favourite Stories. We’ve been on double Ds for a minute, and then “Get Low” comes along to really set this crew apart from the crowd. Grab it 10/8.

Just as summer comes to end, Tilly & the Wall are back with another party record to keep things festive. This is like a triple espresso. It’s got the riff from Deep Purple’s classic metal song “Hush” mixed with modern electronics. “Heavy Mood” is the album’s title track, and it will probably leave you in anything but a heavy mood.

This debut remix from Celestial Trax is something of a beaut. The young London collective flip the blogosmash from Astronauts, etc. into an ethereal portrait of experimental elements and distorted vocal samples. Chillax to some “Mystery Colors” below.
