“Ivory Coast”

Excited for this release.

yvynyl:

This dreamy single from Portland duo Daniel Hindman and Sarah Versprille is hittin’ the spot right now. Gauzy white sunshine and pastel blossoms. You didn’t know you needed an anthem for springtime, did you?

Their brand new self-titled EP comes out on May 22nd on Father/Daughter Records - you can pre-order the vinyl right here.


Haim

“Forever”

Let’s start off the week with this great percussive 80’s-inspired summer jam from California sister-trio Haim.  It’s clear and tight production feel like a welcome respite from a seemingly universal assault of woozy, verbed out groups.  

According to their bio, they cut their teeth playing with their parents traveling band, reminiscent of The Kings Of Leon story.  Well, they are on their own now and have released a three song EP you can grab for the price of your email at their site.

Cadillac

“Too Long (Daft Punk Cover)” 

This is dope.

prickupyourears:

An entirely different take on an old classic. Cadillac has brought the tempo down and added some synth elements to give the song a tropical feel, which is great since summer started earlier this month here.

Van She

“Idea of Happiness”

I used to mix this band from London back in ‘07 and they used to gush about the Van She non-stop.  I mean they really were into them bordering on jealousy.  Every now again I would think… what ever happened to that band with the cool name?  Well today I got my answer…they’re still kicking ass. 

glofi:

Van She is so glossy pop.  I love this chorus.


OPOSSUM

“Blue Meanies”

Here is a new cut from Kody Nielson and co.’s forthcoming Electric Hawaii out April 21st. Get it.

Been crushing on this group for quite some time, I think the LP is gonna be psych-pop gold.  Check out the rad video for the previously released “Getaway”.

“Hold Me Close”

This is damn sexy…the kind of mood setter that puts the bed in bedroom.

“Fronting”

Been rocking out this poolside 80s dream pop jam since I heard it last week over at IGIF.  It’s really not getting old.  Keep in the loop at their Sndcld

TEEEL

“Deadites” (FAKE Remix)

Last week I launched a new remix project called FAKE.  The name comes from the fact they are not traditional remixes, but more audio collage where the source stems are chopped up into new melodies and new rhythm parts.  Check out the most recent one I did for TEEEL’s “Deadites”.

Hit me up and let me know what you think!

Vacationer

“Everyone Knows”

Vacationer, the collaborative project between The Starting Line’s Kenny Vasoli and Brooklyn dance-pop trio Body Language, have released their debut LP Gone on Downtown Records.  

Gone brings to mind the recent work of The Morning Benders and a bit of Vampire Weekend, regardless of any comparisons, I’m loving the vibe.

“Believe”

Caught this this early 90’s tropical slow-builder over at Pasta Primavera the other day, (who you should follow if you don’t), and have been spinning it all week.

I am really digging what they are doing over at World Tour’s label Cascine, who will release the Believe EP on April 10th.

Hurry up and check these guys out at 2:15pm today at Brooklyn Vegan’s free SXSW Hotel Vegan party.  Click through the flyer for full set times.

Digging this Blondie-esq track off the debut EP.

PREMIERE: New Myths - False Gold

Get ready New York City, a brand new group of ladies have come out swinging, wielding some pretty powerful electro-rock tunes.  The band is comprised of sultry songstress/guitarist Britney Boras,diva drummer Rosie Glassman, and badass bassist Marina Ross.  Together they weave a tapestry with threads of ethereal vocals, aggressive, driving percussion and undulating subtle synths.  These ladies are bound to take the music world by storm.

Listen to their debut self-titled EP  here.
