Dreamy New Tune From Deleterolf

Leave a comment

Things will likely be a bit slow this week as people shut ease into a holiday weekend on Friday. Before then, we of course have a few songs to throw your way for mid-week and weekend vibing. Though it’s early yet, this new track called “Used to Be” from Zurich based artist deleterolf is my frontrunner for your track of the week. It has a super dreamy, yet driving vibe to it an gives off the quiet beauty of say Efterklang mixed with Beach House. I am sure you’ll love it.

Color Palette Release Nights Alone

Leave a comment

If you find Mondays, or every day at this point, a struggle, then you’re going to enjoy this Color Palette tune getting under your skin. It’ll hit you almost instantly, in a similar fashion to what you’d find on a recent Black Marble or Ducks Ltd. record. There’s certainly some post-punk energy, particularly in the way some of the guitars hit sharp notes and intertwine with this driving rhythm section. The infectious nature of the track swirls around with the cooled vocal flavoring giving a nice little dark coat to match the underlying melody of what’s pumping through your speakers. Good place to start the week with new tunes!

Last Week’s Jams (6.23 – 6.27)

Leave a comment

Okay, so we might have gone a bit overboard somehow. It was just one of those weeks where there were hits everywhere you turned. Austin popped up a ton on our end, with new stuff from Stella and the Very Messed, Whalers, Gus Baldwin, Thanks Light…and some retroactive love for Drunk Uncle and Little Mazarn. Fortitude Valley and the Beths battled it out on the site for pop rock supremacy, but you get to make the call which you love the most. Tons of great records were about too, with new stuff from Jeanines, Ryli, Tom Henry and more. The IT Department popped in with a reminder of Cut Copy‘s new album…plus a touch up on some other great jams from Mac DeMarco to Emily Hines…there’s a little bit in here for you all!

Stella and the Very Messed Share Big Familiar

Leave a comment

The news of brand new Stella and the Very Messed has been sitting in my inbox for a few weeks, and I’m so excited about this record I couldn’t wait to share the news with you. Stella Maxwell, formerly of Cruiserweight, has been a powerhouse in the Texas music scene for several decades, and despite my love for all her previous works, this new single is just a straight hit. A light strum opens before the drums crash in with a wash of heavy guitar riffs, hitting you right in the face as Maxwell’s voice belts out notes with an assuredness of an indie rock veteran. The way the band pull back to kind of offer a little moment of rest, then blast back just builds this huge wall of power that washes over you again and again. You’ll be able to get yourself a copy of their new record, Big Familiar, this Fall via Double Helix Records.

Alexei Shishkin Announces Good Times

Leave a comment

Spent last night at a bar called Good Times, so waking up to the announcement of a new record from Alexei Shishkin of the same name seems serendipitous. And, with that announcement comes this great tune, filling us in on the promise of Alexei’s forthcoming work. He’s operating with the perfect balance, if you ask me, as the track carefully plods in with some light notes, setting the backdrop for the tune. He fills that in with a bit of a bolder noise, pushing the sonic level way up high in a way that reminds me of a modern twist on some of the early Grandaddy LPs. Good Times will be released by Rue Defense on September 5th.

Thanks Light Share Costa Rica

Leave a comment

If ever a song was justified as existing on this site, it would absolutely have to be the latest track from Austin’s Thanks Light. You see, both RayRay and I have spent time in Costa Rica, myself having lived there for some time, so the thematic reference of the happiness of that country definitely feel like they hit home. They’re offered in a playful style, sort of like a Texas version of “pura vida,” with twanging guitars being bent and stretched beneath a summery heat whilst elegant keys give the track a little more proverbial meat. Just a gentle sway in the breeze, like sitting beachside and sleeping in a hammock, “way down in Costa Rica.”

Moviola Share Slage Wave Video

Leave a comment

There is something to be said about a band that’s 30 years down the road and still banging out masterful hits, like Ohio’s Moviola. They’re dropping their 11th album, Earthbound, at the end of this summer, and our latest listen has this casual bit of warm indie rock coming through your speakers. In a sense, it has the same musical sentiment that you’d find in an old Lucksmiths LP, offering these well-thought out melodies in simplistic forms that keep you returning to find solace in the music you love. I’ll admit, there’s nothing blowing your hair back in that modern sense, but rather you’re treated to great songwriting and arrangements that should put the new LP on your radar. Earthbound hits on August 29th via Dromedary Records.

Aus!Funkt Drop New Single

Leave a comment

If you woke up today looking for a little bit of musical energy to carry you to the end, might you try on this Aus!Funkt jam that dropped today? The Montreal outfit just dropped a AA single today, and man, the rhythmic pulse of this tune below is just too solid not to crank up. Almost instantly your body is propelled into motion, whether that’s full body swaying or toe-tapping, you can’t deny the fashionable pulse of this hit. They flesh out the track with layers of shadowy vocals to pull on those dark-wave notes, with other musical excursions blasting all around the track. Don’t hesitate, and just click play!

Glimmer Drop Another Hit

Leave a comment

New York based group Glimmer has been slowly releasing hit after hit over the last couple of years or so. Today we’ve been notified that a debut album is finally coming sometime this fall, which will feature this new jam “Sorrow Again.” It’s a sludgy, grungy gem of a tune and I will seriously start questioning your tastes if you don’t like or have yet to discover this band. We’ll keep you posted as deets trickle in on the new album, but in the meantime, enjoy this one.
