More good stuff from Majical Cloudz, who has been featured here for Turns Turns Turns and the interesting and depressing video for Childhood’s End. He has a new track called Bugs Don’t Buzz, which I think scientists could prove is...
We have a gentle track with sprinkles of piano and sometime sparse, repeated lyrics that I somehow find quite interesting. The track is by Lady Lazarus and the track is called Gleam. The video features VHS-styled footage looking out a...
The excellent Toronto synth pop band Austra are readying their new album, Olympia, for a June 17/18 release. PeteHatesMusic saw them recently in Toronto as they played new track, Home. They now have a simple yet somewhat hypnotic new video...
During Canadian Music Week, way back in March (it’s been a busy period – leave me alone!), I met an artist named Alex Leggett. He was a real nice guy, and like so many people at CMW, he gave me...
We have been getting trickles of what is sure to be a cracker of an album (make that a DOUBLE album) from ambient instrumental artist, Eluvium. He is releasing a double album called Nightmare Ending, and has given us the...
No, this isn’t a Queens of the Stone Age cover (although that might be cool). This is a soaring new track from Washington D.C.’s Drop Electric also called Little Sister. The track is off of the depressingly named album (or...
Back in January, we introduced you to English minimalist electro band, Glyphs, and their track Locks & Keys. The band now have a new single for a track called Minor Victories, which is what I consider every inch of blanket...
English folk singer Laura Marling is about to release her fourth album, Once I Was An Eagle. She has a good track record so far – two Mercury Award nominations. We’ve heard a couple of tracks from her upcoming album,...
The xx have cooked up something new for The Great Gatsby soundtrack, curated by Jay-Z. The soundtrack has new tracks and covers by other artists such as Lana Del Rey, Outkast’s Andre 3000 and Beyonce, and Jay-Z himself. The xx’s...
We featured Brøthers earlier this month and their cool track, Is This The End. We now have another little nugget for you in the form of We Are Pushing On. The track is a synth-heavy pop track, with a video...
Wild Nothing have a catchy, if not a little erratic, new track called A Dancing Shell. The track is from their upcoming EP, Empty Estate. The track bubbles along with rolling synth lines, dreamy vocals, and some weirdness to break...
Pretty Boy is clearly not a song named after me (unless my fan mail with photos made it through to the band). The track by Young Galaxy now has a video for the excellent synth pop track. And it is...
I’m a little unclear if the band goes by S O H N (which we previously used) or SOHN (which seems to show up in most of their stuff). I’m officially switching to the latter. Anyway, the band have a...
With each new song release, London Grammar are getting more and more mainstream coverage. This is a good thing – this trio has some talent. We first posted Hey Now and then Metal & Dust. You can now hear their...
“Here’s a song you won’t want on mute.” This is the type of sentence you might come to expect from me if I ran a terrible blog (instead of this mediocre blog). However, this is a moot point, as our...
