“Sad Boy” artist Gabriel Black streams second track online “Pine Trees”. A plaintive minimal number built on some slick use of hip-hop vocal cadence and spare gut-punch guitar stabs. Enjoy it below.
Casablanca Records man STéLOUSE links up with Dance Gavin Dance singer Tilian for cooly melodic new electronic pop track “Bones”.
Is it weird that I spend more time stalking people on Spotify than I do on Facebook? Oh well, I found a downtempo gem out of it. Jazz Morley delivers major melodies on “Safe Place,” a chilled out track about wanting to feel close to someone you’re no longer close with. This riveting track is worth a listen.
Goldwash never disappoints. With his self-proclaimed genre of “existential funk,” he brings major grooves on his latest track, “Episode.” I for one am going to be bumping this track the rest of the summer. Enjoy!
The talented twosome Opia are back with a new EP entitled “Faded” and we’re really digging the coolly-arranged and stylistically-varied title track.
Antwerp-based producer Taska Black produces dark, deep vibes on his newest track, “Where We Go.” Orchestral elements and a hard hitting bass create a unique blend of sounds. It’s the best of both worlds, a beauty and a banger.
LUNAR follows on from the excellent “Glad You Stayed” from last month with equally strong latest “Pretty Face”. The track spins an especially intimate quality, as if being beam directly from the recording board/laptop straight to your headphones, that makes “Pretty Face” all that more magnetic.
We’re into the strong hazy synth-driven pop from NJ producer Blood Cultures. Sampled below is the excellent “Detroit” from Blood Cultures’ forthcoming debut Happy Birthday, out July 21.
Belgian quartet Felix Pallas turn in stylistically varied new one “Similarities”. Mixing elements of newer waves in dark pop and R&B, the four-piece cooly navigate a sound on “Similarities” both immediately very listenable and potentially quite accessible too. “Similarities” is out now on Disco Naivete Records.
The DC-origin duo GEMS continue their Every Full Moon series with a new entry marking the July 9 full moon in Capricorn. “You In My Dream” puts the twosome’s knack for melodic writing at the fore, the track’s tuneful sweep adeptly suited together to spare drums and guitar. Stream “You In My Dream” below.
French band Fellini Felin construct from on new one “Come To The Fore” what is a very unique palette of sounds. Without losing track of any listen-ability or melodic quality, FF manage a sound that (at least in our estimation) no other band quite sounds like right now. The mix of reverb-y guitar and deep in the PA vocals with “Come to the Fore’s” claps-driven rhythm track is a very cool twist. Listen to “Come To The Fore” below.
