Non La Signs to Mint Records, Shares New Single

A few years have passed since Non La release Not In Love, which is one of my daughter’s favorite records to grab off the shelf (she’s really into pink!), so I was really pleased to hear that DJ On has signed his project on to work with Mint Records. Listening through this single, you can definitely hear the slight change in direction DJ, mostly as it feels a little more minimal upon the first minute or so. Still, the track certainly explodes, giving you that hook-laden punch that drives home all lyrical content from On. Visually, the video pays homage to the moments of “queer joy, love and tenderness,” hopefully shining a ray of light through the darkness of our times. There’s a new record in the works, but for now, you’ll have to just enjoy the hell out of this track.

Solid New Track from the Bankees

I’ve long been a supporter of Bankees ever since I came across their last album, Kimono.  Unfortunately, the French group has largely gone unnoticed over here in the States, but I hope I can change that.  This song is their first single from their upcoming record, Homes, which is shaping up to be one hell of a listen.  On this tune, they’re taking a casual approach to effortless pop, just letting the guitar trickle in while the vocals calmly win you over.  It’s the sort of pop tune with a melody that gets stuck in your brain, which is the kind of stuff I like.  I’ll keep you all posted on the new album as more details come our way, but you can spread the word on these guys in the meantime.
