Telehealth Share No Time Lost Video

Leave a comment

I will admit that I have definitely been fascinated by the work of Seattle’s Telehealth. Their first few singles from their LP hinted at this almost Devo-esque synth brand, but as I listened to their latest release, I can’t help but to hope that there’s more of this in store. This song’s got patience and beauty, pushing the song out delicately atop this warm beat work; it ends up being more contemplative, allowing you to connect on that level where your mind meets up with the music and carries you away. It’s just this huge thoughtful electronic piece that’s meant for reflection, and as we’re all here on a Monday, I reckoned we needed that. They release Content Oscillator on March 31st.

Connections Share Bird Has Flown

Leave a comment

Spending a week catching live music on the daily, I was looking for something that reminded me of the spirit of live rock n’ roll, which is exactly what happens when you press play on this new track from Connections. Don’t let the 7 second intro full you, as the drums drop in and give you the immediacy of a good old fashioned garage rock stomp; you’ll be tapping your toes throughout. As the melodies from the song unfold, there’s this breezy cool that whips through the tune, touching off that emotional nod. For me, I was sold with the emphatic delivery in the chorus, delivering the urgency of live rock n’ roll that I alluded to at the beginning. Cool Change, their new LP, is out on Friday via Trouble in Mind Records.

Cindy Share the Price is Right

Leave a comment

Sure RayRay and I have been out and about at this SXSW thing, but coming home to a fresh Cindy track is a right up there with that New Order show I caught. Honestly, I want to study the band’s execution; they remind me of Bedhead in a strange way, as they’re able to captivate with pure emotion, although the movement on the surface seems minimal. Slight little touches like layering piano in the closing moments build this beautifully textured swell of dense pop music. Going to die on this hill that this might be one of the best group’s in Indie Land at the moment. Their new album Why Not Now will be out April 14th via Mt. St. Mtn.

John Andrew and the Yawns Share Never Go Away

Leave a comment

Outside in Austin at the moment, the weather’s just a bit cool, though the sun’s already poking its head out of the clouds, but putting that all together makes John Andrews and the Yawns new single quite fitting. There’s a cool vibe running through the vocals, both Andrews and the backing vocals; it’s like sun hitting your skin to give just the faintest warmth. Behind the vocals, there’s a nice bounce, like riding on a nice crisp breeze, moving you to tap your toes or perhaps shuffle those feet just a wee bit. You’ll be able to grab this single on the new LP, Love for the Underdog, out on April 28th via Woodsist.

Day & Dream Share Spooky 2

Leave a comment

Wanted to ease you into your Tuesday morning with something that feels like waking up out of a deep slumber, which is where we find Day & Dream on their latest single. The ambient wash blankets the tune with the disorienting textures of dream pop, but its the movement beneath in the mix that really has me enjoying myself. Subtle drum rolls fill in the empty space as ethereal vocals spread out across the song’s vast landscape they’ve created. And, if you let the song drift with you, there’s this bombastic exit as the song draws near, allowing the band to illustrate their musicianship as they top of the tune with a little punch.

Pynch Share London Video

Leave a comment

When I think about the sound’s that London’s Pynch are crafting, it feels like they’re rooted in the New York scene of the early 00s, specifically anything with James Murphy’s hands on it. There’s that underlying pulse that feels like it’s ready to explode at any moment and drop a hook that’ll stick for days. But, rather than delve into the easy path of build and release, the band let the song sort of shimmer on the edges, holding onto the release to let the song explore the edges of pop territories. If you’re digging on it, the band release Howling at a Concrete Moon on April 14th.

Juppe Joins Up with Soliti Music

Leave a comment

Our good friends Soliti Music over in Finland have just signed up to work with Juppe, an artists spinning his own brand of funk and pop and folk, buoyed by a sense of camaraderie during the pandemic. But, just as the front half teases you with pop expectations, wait until the back half spins this distorted noise-skronk stomp; there’s no boundaries in the band’s songwriting, which is something that means a lot to me these days. It’s a tune that works playfully, then fades with bombast, so interested to hear where the project goes from here.

The Mary Onettes Return with Easy Hands

Leave a comment

The Mary Onettes have been part of this site for the better part of a decade; I even spent a good deal of this year hunting down a reasonably priced copy of their self-titled LP, so I’m happy they’re back with a fresh set of tunes. They open things up here with an infectious bounce immediately, letting the guitars drift distantly before the vocals decide they’d like to join up. Honestly, Philip’s lyrical writing isn’t too far off from Glenn Donaldson’s RPP track from last week, calling on artists to take care of themselves while being drawn to create…sadly a sentiment folks like me need to remember. Oh man, this melodic chorus too, is just something special. Stoked to have the Swedish outfit back in any form.

Jonathan Bree Shares New Single ft. Princess Chelsea

Leave a comment

If you needed the perfect pairing for your music listening, then I beg you to dive right into this new track from Jonathan Bree, featuring fellow New Zealander (and former bandmate) Princess Chelsea; the vocals of the two serve as the perfect foil for one another. Musically, just imagine a world where Daft Punk decided to turn their electro disco vibes into a live band; it doesn’t help that a certain Niles Rodgers helped on the latest from Jonathan, adding just a bit of classic funk flare to the tune. It’s a pop style without peers, if you’re asking me, so keep an eye out for Pre-Code Hollywood, dropping on April 14th via Lil Chief Records.
