Walkabouts Share You Go Single

Leave a comment

There’s a plethora of solid songwriters in Austin these days, particularly when it comes to a modern guitar pop sound, like Walkabouts. They’re sound takes on that sort of cosmic guitar sound, where the notes sort of skitter off into the horizon, as the rhythm section just keeps us all locked into place. A little bit of added texture throughout allows for the melody on the vocals to have just the faintest hint of a hop to it, kind of bouncing along the central groove and sweetening the pot for the listener. Definitely a new act we’re keep our eyes and ears upon going into 2026.

New Ripper from Bee Bee Sea

Leave a comment

We’re big fans of Italian garage rock outfit Bee Bee Sea, and as they prep for the release of Stanzini Can Be Allright; we definitely wanted to give a shout to their newest single as it encompasses their approach to gritty grooves with infectious hooks. If you just take the surface of the single, it’s rough and sounds like the group pressed record in their recording space. But, there’s this natural joy in their song, and you certainly feel it as the “you” gets stretched through what one might consider a chorus. Hoping a few copies will make their way overseas in these trying shipping times; the album is out November 21st.

New Music from Blue Tomorrows

Leave a comment

There’s a certain joy you get when you stumble upon an unknown artist that really feels aligned with your tastes, like when I heard Blue Tomorrows. Sarah Nienaber’s project has been around for a few years, so that miss is totally on me, but I’m really loving the latest single from the new LP. There’s this sort of marked journeying from the track, like its running through a field of billowing, knee-high grasses, albeit accomplished with this synthetic buzz. Nienaber’s voice rises and crests, like it’s finding its footing in between the bounding piano notes; there’s a nice little texture on the voice too, giving it just a faint hint of mystery that I adore. Really looking forward to discovering what lays in store on Weather Forever, which drops on December 12th.

New Music from Basavriuk

Leave a comment

When I first put on this single from Puerto Rico’s Basavriuk, the natural bounce was what drew me in; the jangle of guitar notes curling around wasn’t too shabby either, blending in seamlessly with my typical listening rotation. Then, the vocals pulled at me; they’re way down in the mix, almost as if they’re drowning beneath the melodic punch. I loved how they hid in there, careful to add another layer of brightness to the song’s spring, though done in a fashion that simultaneously hangs onto the dark tones of the guitars and washes of keyboard. A fun little pop ditty to get under your skin.

New Music from Vilde

Leave a comment

I know that B.Gray is our resident electronic head, but the work of Vilde has been speaking to me this morning, and with a fresh single out into the world, let’s visit the Aussie artist. On the surface, you get this dense bit of upbeat electronica, using little flashes of ambiance echoing in the tune’s distance; it sets up this contemplative spirit, allowing songwriter Thomas Savage to deliver his message about relishing in the human experience, fighting back against our fears and hesitancy. The uniqueness of his voice draws you into the poetic lines, then your lost in the cavernous maze of his beat work, willingly following one note or another. Be on the lookout for Qualia at Odds, the new LP, in the very near future.

Blue Zero Prep Confusion EP

Leave a comment

It’s weird when folks are already whispering about year end lists and what not, when I’m still getting ready for the rad tunes coming out this week, like the new EP from Blue Zero. They’re delivering a ripping alt-rock sound, packaged in a modern indie grab bag. Discordant notes stab at the speakers instantly, ringing sharply as the vocals crawl through a pit of mud. Then the tune erupts into this heavy noisy chorus, weaving male and female vocals to craft this delicious melody that allows just a glimmer of light to peak behind the darkened clouds. Swirling noise and velvety vocal touches make up their latest track…so keep an eye out of for their Confusion EP tomorrow.

Devin Shaffer Shares Anyone

Leave a comment

Beginning our day with a roll in the electronic underground of Sweden got our energy up, but alas, its time to take a little respite and rest in the mystical world of Devin Shaffer. The New York songwriter is the purest embodiment of ethereal pop I’ve come across of late, with her music fluttering around your head like a moth to a flame. It feels as if you’re traipsing through some Southern town, fog rolling in off the bayous as Spanish moss hangs from the trees; it’s both powerful and haunting, yet the ornate nature maintains a special bit of intimacy. Her new album, Patience, drops next week, November 7th, just in time for you to retreat for the Winter.

Jon Hood Share Primrose

Leave a comment

Big can of Primrose Daycare System, and big fan of this new jam, “Primrose,” by Swedish outfit Jon Hood. It slides right into my recent move back into a more electronic brand of indie rock, a la the Melenas and a million other acts we could name drop for cool points. The whole track feels like a sprint around a track, catching your breath momentarily, then racing back to catch your opponents. There are some tight little turns this way and that from the guitars, not to mention some heavy underground buzzing, all building in the textural balance that made me love this jam.

Matt Kivel Announces Escape from LA

Leave a comment

While the writing process for Matt Kivel‘s latest album took about 7 years to bring the songs to the table, the record is a statement on 33 years living in LA (and how Matt got out!). Our first sample of what’s to come has this broad indie rock brush stroke, dipping a toe in the pools of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, whilst also sounding utterly unique. When listening, there’s this hint of fragility in Kivel’s voice, just faintly kind of quivering at the end of syllables, reminiscent of Voxtrot‘s Ramesh; it’s a pretty special feel, made deeply emotional when the depth of the arrangements in the track swell around your ear. We’re in for a fantastic voyage if this track is any indicator; Escape from LA is out on December 12th via Scissortail Records…with a brief tour the week before the release with Bonnie “Prince” Billy.

New Annabelle Chairlegs Jam

Leave a comment

Long have we all been fans of Annabelle Chairlegs, and this week Lindsey Mackin and company announced their brand new record for upstart label Todo! The song is a poppy bit of garage rock, with the help of Ty Segall to make sure the balance in the mix is perfect. When you watch the video, the snappiness and joy of the song is clearly apparent in the video; it looks like Lindsey had an absolute blast making it, matching up with the sonic energy coming through your speakers. We promise you’ll not find a more fun jam to crank up today, and be on the lookout for Waking Up in January of next year.
