Cooks – Still Woozy

I literally tripped upon this little chiller “Cooks,” from Still Woozy just the other day and it’s been running through my mind ever since. What a tight little groove this band I’ve never heard of has going on. It’s almost like a little fungus sound…

Dreams Tonite – Alvvays

Less surf rock than their previous work, “Dreams Tonite,” is the new single from Alvvays’ upcoming album Antisocialites and finds itself at home in the world of sleepy shoe-gaze ballads. Musically, the song is as simple as they come, focusing more on Molly Rankin‘s soft-spoken vocals,…

Violet – The Districts

Full disclosure: I fucking love The Districts. They are poised to be the next big thing in rock with a distinct style that borders on the edges of punk, folk and arena rock. This song, “Violet,” absolutely blew me away when I saw them in…

Belong – Fyfe ft. Kimbra

Fyfe’s latest album The Space Between is a fantastic effort that leaves you wowed and wanting more. “Belong,” featuring the vocal talents of Kimbra, is the cherry on top of this modern and jazzy collection of songs. I think we all know by now that…

Raskit – Dizzee Rascal

London grime hip-hop god Dizzee Rascal dropped his long-awaited album, “Raskit” last Friday (his first since 2013) and I am bouncing like bonkers listening to it. Whole album on 50 jigawatts blasting through the speakers as I move down the avenue. Known for his fast-paced…

Dial up is the new single off of the recently released project Nyck @ Knight from Pro Era (See Joey Badass) crew members Nyck Caution and Kirk Knight. The entire project is a killer showcasing of skills from the two rappers who appear on most…

Asido – Purity Ring

Well look at what we have here: A Monday release of some new Purity Ring material, two years after their last release. “Asido” is a moody, piano driven track that feels way more like an emo song than a dance track. The lyrics are as…

Evolve – Anoraak ft. Lydmor

The recently released EP from french synthpop producer Anoraak has an absolutely killer opening track called “Evolve” featuring singer Lydmor. This song is like taking Chvrches, fixing all their flaws and adding heavy, heavy bass. The chorus has an absolutely earth shattering drop that you…

Necessary – San Mei

I’m loving this new stuff from San Mei. This four song EP is a pretty big departure from her previous work with a much bigger sound fit for arenas. Her voice carries so well through some pretty intense guitar riffs on each song. “Until You…

Emerging Adulthood – Dan Croll

Dan Croll’s second LP Emerging Adulthood is an on- the-nose title for an album about coming of age not only Dan himself but for his music as well. His first album, Sweet Disarray, was as good of a debut as you could expect but was,…
