LET'S SEXY FIGHTING

Let's listen to some new music. And fight...sexily.


BOY 8-BIT


Recently I've been grooving to the instrumental hip-hop, dub-step-ish stylings of Boy 8-Bit. There's something energetic, but soothing about it. I first discovered him through his remix work, but now I'm starting to see the brilliance of his solo stuff!

NEW WALLPAPER


Wallpaper's got a new summer single out entitled, "Pool Party". It's a collaboration between Wallpaper, Jacob Safari of The Mae Shi, and Kid Static. Reggaeton lite!

NEW JULIAN PLENTI


Matador has released another song from the upcoming Paul Banks solo album, Julian Plenti Is...Skyscraper (due out August 4th). "Games For Days" is sounding a lot more Interpol-like than the previous song, "Fun That We Had"!

NEW ATLAS SOUND


Pitchfork's got the scoop on the new Atlas Sound album, including a collaboration with Panda Bear! "Walkabout" sounds awesome in an experimental doo-wop kinda way...

DANIEL


Daniel Johnson has experienced a wide spectrum in his musical career - grinding it out on the road, brushes with major labels, and critical success. Do anything for a long enough time without breakthrough, and at some point we all get tired of butting our heads up against the ceiling and consider quitting.

Unfortunately, Daniel got to this point and quit his longtime band, Judah Johnson, and took an indefinite hiatus from making music. However, over time he began to miss what attracted him to it in the first place, and began attacking it from a different angle - electronically. The result is a gorgeous, lush, and fully fleshed out blend of rock, electronic, and soul.

FOREST SWORDS


Been enjoying psychedelic music a lot more recently. Not really sure what that's all about! But I do love getting lost in these hypnotic soundscapes...check out Forest Swords for today's dose!

THE DRUMS


Beautiful day out here. Currently enjoying The Beach Boys-meets-Ramones stylings of The Drums! I think I need a good cocktail in hand to go with this song.

YOUNG HEARTS SPARK FIRE

REAL ESTATE


Just got back from a weekend of camping...been offline for a few days. Had some time to contemplate, so I'm coming at you today with a slice of dreamy guitar pop! Real Estate is a 4-piece from New Jersey that plays floaty, yearning jams.

NEW-ISH STARLIGHT MINTS


Been really enjoying this Starlight Mints track recently - "Zoomba" is from their recently released record, Change Remains. It's a little Stereolab, a little Led Zeppelin, and a little Of Montreal!

FOOL'S GOLD


Summertime...time to be exploring westernized afro-pop again! Fool's Gold is a project out of LA that involves members of Foreign Born and the ex-drummer of We Are Scientists. More interestingly, lead singer Luke Top sings in Hebrew!

Their self-titled debut will out out on 9/29.
