【check!】banvox / still loving you
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xpgNJq7fZg Electronic maestro Banvox's newest full length album 'Sellout' dropped earlier this week, and it's severely stuffed with new magic. I wanted to single out opening track "Still Loving You" in particular though. The song is both comfy and an absolute jam that you can't help but leave it on repeat. I'm obsessed!
【check!】brasko / milk chocolate (feat. nai br.xx)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqZqD9pfA7Q Smooth, creamy pop that melts in your mouth. Featuring the sultry, sophisticated Nai Br.XX (who you may know as the singing voice of Carole in the BRILLIANT "Carole & Tuesday" anime.) who really brings the track up a notch. Don't sleep on this.
【release】travis benson debuts with an album unlike anything else this year
I think everyone should stop what they're doing and check out Travis Benson's upcoming debut album. FFA Kero Kero Bonito, and those of you who'd enjoy being characters in an N64 video game. This is wild, unique and fun. I'm reminded of Owl City, but not as uninspired and relying on the bedroom pop gimmick.... Continue Reading →
【check!】madeon / dream dream dream
https://youtu.be/qQWAicHiVhk Madeon continues his new era with the soothing, almost transcendental "Dream Dream Dream". How do you feel?
【check!】blam honey / the horse breaker demos
It only took 20 something years, but at long last, a kind individual has uploaded both of the Japanese industrial goth unit BLAM HONEY's first two demotapes. These are incredibly rare (with the first tape limited to 100 copies, and the second 200 copies), and I cannot believe they're here on the internet. Do check... Continue Reading →
【check!】roisin murphy / incapable
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H02BPY7vEms Yes, I know I wrote FACK ALL this month. Life is rough! While I was out slaving away, my ambitious electronic queen Roisin has gifted us with another new single (following her quadrilogy of 12" singles with Maurice Fulton), "Incapable" is an eight minute disco stomper that blurs the line between smooth 80s funk...

【check!】meg / scanty blues (dj assault mix)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8sP8RtHCrY MEG's initial remix album is a huge question mark in her discography for a multitude of reasons that I will get into in an article to come, but for now I wanted to share one of the brilliant tracks from it (that strangely only ended up on the European edition of the release). Arranged... Continue Reading →
【check!】hatari / klefi/samed
https://youtu.be/Xy84LnL_ghA Eurovision finalists (and my second pick for winner) Hatari have released a new single featuring Palestinian vocalist Bashar Murad. It's intense and bone chilling!
