Grimes – Symphonia IX (My Wait Is U)

Walrus – Lastly & Iro No Aru Basho E

Just had this band thrown into my lap this week by my good buddy Jason.  They fit right into my life like an old friend I never knew I had.  The heaviness and the lightness of their sound is well...

The Golden Filter – Look Me In The Eye

Digging through my old emails I found a “note to self” that literally said “check out Voluspa”…that’s it.  Thanks Joe. After a few days of searching for what I was eluding to on the web, I finally...

Metronomy – She Wants

I feel like I am stuck in a rut of these sorta 80′s throwback outfits, but I just love what I am finding tooooooo much.  This track from Metronomy has ALL the things I like: catchy bass riff….that’s...

Feed Me & Crystal Fighters – Love Is All I Got

A refreshing look at dubstep for those of you who can’t get into it AND those of you who have.  Feed Me has a great catalog of classic dubstep tracks and Crystal Fighters are a youthful sort of spin on...

I’ve been digging Phoenix in my music mixes on Spotify ever since I first heard 1901 in that Cadillac ad way back when.  I’ve been trying to get them a post out here and when I saw they had a new album...

Mates of State – Palomino

Haven’t given Mates of State much time as of late and it appears I missed some good stuff as a result.  This track opens up their last studio album released in 2011.  It keeps their creative song...

Drumsound & Baseline Smith – Through The Night

Blown completely away by this album.  Haven’t been taken by an entire album like this since Future Islands’ “On The Water” in late 2011.  This album takes the drum & bass style into almost every...

33 Million views in just over 10 days.  Unreal. Love this track for its jovial nature mixed with decent dance-ability.  It sticks in your mind and you will find yourself trying to remember what comes...

Rodion & Khan – Let’s Motor

A haunting little grove that makes me picture a dark, pulsing dance floor that calls my name with each pumping combination of strobe light and beat.  Is it Monday?  Feels more like Friday with this...

The Chap – Better Place

How curious do you want your music?  As curious as possible?  Do you want to push the limits of what pop can be, should be, shouldn’t be?  Do you want to ask yourself “What the fuck am I listening to?”...

Phantogram – Celebrating Nothing

Phantogram has been producing great electronic music for a little over five years now and have always had my ear.  With their most recent releases they have really pushed into new ground though.  Their...

Gatto Fritto – The Curse

Sounding more like an early 80′s demo tape track than a cut from a modern producer/DJ, The Curse fits right into the serotonin channels of my brain.  It is stripped down, obvious, looped and completely...
