Gus Baldwin and the Sketch Drop Slacker’s Prom

Leave a comment

While the Winter weather tends to put me into my feels, there’s still a thirst for the energy that Gus Baldwin & the Sketch bring to my speakers. While they push forth in this new single, their typical tenacity is offset a little bit by the vocal delivery; Baldwin’s voice is a little calmed and hazy, setting up these perfect “oohs” that deliver a teaser hook. This is all perfect, as the energy pours through the speakers, punishing the cones as the drums thunder and riffs do their best to shred everything in their path. The Sketch will officially be out on January 25th of next year!

Psylhouette Share Everything is Fine

Leave a comment

Still circling back to last week where I’m encountering some hidden gems those of us in the States missed out upon, so this Psylhouette is one of those jams I really wanted to get under your skin. The Brighton due have this propulsive futurist brand of pop, working on heavy synths and these sort of crystalized sugared vocals. The tune below locks you in this hedonistic trance, urging you to try and catch the strobing lights as they dance upon the tile floors at your favorite club. This is definitely one of the more upbeat numbers on their new album, Psylhouette III, so don’t go on about town looking for more of the same!

Stream New EP from Walk Home Drunk and Dirtpath

Leave a comment

Our friends over at Hidden Bay Records always release great pop music, and in doing so, they’ve always got their fingers on the pulse of what’s cool in France. But, little did I know they had long arms, stretching all the way to our hometown, Austin…as you’ll see in their latest release from the collab between Walk Home Drunk and Dirtpath. These four songs were recorded across the ocean, trading bedroom recordings back and forth until they reached their maximum potential. It’s a sound that certainly embraces that at-home recording feel, though you’ll hear songs like “Toulouse, TX” go beyond and provide sublime indiepop that rewards each time you press play. Stream the whole Toulouse, TX EP below!

The Sprouts Share Sometimes Single

Leave a comment

I was pretty high upon Eat Your Greens, the debut LP from Aussie outfit The Sprouts (2023), so hearing they’ve got a new release on the way is welcome news. According to the release, the six songs on the forthcoming EP were recorded at home, and while they’ve got that inclination to wear the private charms, there’s still something beyond special in this single. While perhaps I’m tethered to the video, it’s as if the song’s a lightly penned vacation soundtrack, perhaps crafted by a young Lou Reed and friends. Guitars are soft and wistful, and the underlying charm of the vocals just feels like a crisp cool wafting across your life. Keep your eyes out for the new EP, slated to drop in January.

Marble Raft Share New Single

Leave a comment

It’s that time of year when you’re want to sit by the fire, warming your soul; I can’t think of a better way to get that season underway than by jamming some sparkling indiepop from Swedish outfit Marble Raft. A driving nighttime groove sets up the thematic concept of a magical evening out, letting life carry you wherever the proverbial wind blows. Musically, they incorporate string samples and washes of synths to accompany the dueling vocals, all of it building this wall of melody that matches a magical night. Snuggle up and enjoy.

Check Out Lowah’s Stay By You

Leave a comment

One of the great things about the holiday season is that I get to sit back and just hang in my feels, which was the perfect place to indulge in listening to Lowah. This Brooklyn artist is dwelling in some cool soft rock vibes, with a slightly reggae front on this single; that little guitar chug got its hooks in me, then left my brain to drift off in the sweet sunny afternoon the song supplied. As the weather in Austin grew up a bit colder, I got to revel in the beach feel, with just enough intimacy on the vocal notes that I could invest in my listening. This song appears on Anything Anymore.

Juanita Stein Shares Motionless

Leave a comment

Starting off our Monday with a bit of a different role this week, and rather than pull out a “Last Week’s Jams” with five songs, we’re circling back to the cool stuff we missed, like this new single from Juanita Stein. The British singer just dropped The Weightless Hour, and with that, she’s offered up a visual of album standout “Motionless,” and it’s drifting brand of indie rock definitely caught my ear. You’ll get a slight smokiness, kind of hazy, but brimming with power, much like you’d get from an Angel Olsen or Sharon van Etten, and in that you get a moving performance that we hope gets you to check out her new LP!

Geoffrey O’Connor Shares Let’s Make Love Feel Good Again

Leave a comment

While I’m still perplexed by the ever-present penguin in the new series of videos from Geoffrey O’Connor, I’m totally thrilled by his pop penmanship, as he’s written another swooning pop track I adore. Casually shimmying into the verses, he works the track like a singer controlling his audience; you can almost feel him moving across the stage as he locks into that connection. But, the big winner is the chorus, as longtime ATH hero Emma Russack lends her voice, effortlessly lifting the melody that rains upon the listener with each falling note. Another gem from the forthcoming I Love What We Do, out on February 14th via Dinosaur City.

Skeleten Drops Bodys Chorus Single

Leave a comment

It looks like Skeleten is aiming to drive folks crazy with the title of their latest tune, “Bodys Chorus,” as my writing program has all sorts of red lines under this post. Still, the musical craft is perfect for opening up into what, for me, is a holiday work; you get this sort of low-end industrial beat, careful to kind of build an R&B groove that allows for the vocals to seep into the track’s core. Each vocal note rides just on top of the mix, almost as if it’s a textural layer being built to buoy the sound itself, then furthered by this ringing guitar note that dances across the mixture. Mentalized, the new Lp, comes out in February via 2MR/Astral.

Golden Tiles Drop Debut EP

Leave a comment

If you’re in need of some lo-fi indie rock to stream over this next week, you’re not going to find much better than the debut EP from Portland’s Golden Tiles. “Tale We Told” takes on a slow-burning cigarette mode, just kind of slowly moving in and out of delicious little melodies and distorted waves of joy; I loved the light-hearted nature of the vocals throughout. Maybe you’re looking for something that feels GBV adjacent, so might we suggest pressing play on “100%,” which uses that heavy bass before careening off into it’s own lo-fi energy. The First EP is chock full of really great moments that keep you circling back, so special shout out to Antiquated Future for putting this on our radar!
