New Music from Das Kope

Leave a comment

Das Kope has has been on the ATH radar for some time now, and with the announcement of his record, we wanted to be sure this new little banger was on your radar this week. The artist is really toying with our expectation, as his previous work has really been hyper-melodic and infectious. Don’t get us wrong, this tune does have a nice little bit of a hook, but it’s sort of disguised in this murky haze of sun. In the first minute, you’re subdued by this trickling bit of production, with a twisting guitar note that just seems suspended in the air. When it drops in, the pop connection is made, illustrating how far into the dramatic pop form Das Kope has gone; expect a new album to hit later this Summer.

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!

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!

Origami Ghosts Share Heaven’s Gate Video

Leave a comment

I love the immediate hook that pops up when you click play on the new video from Origami Ghosts. A rush of jangling folk guitars ramp you up where your body starts to sort of convulse in this natural rhythm and everything begins to glow with joy. Plus, how often do you get to hear a little bit of flute in your indie rock diet? Probably not enough! The frantic nature of the tune lets the vocals crawl atop, scratching at your ears as the tune pushes forward; it’s also of note that you can hear the album’s title as part of the chorus here. A Fine Time to Talk About Nothing is out on August 8th.

Gus Baldwin Drops Brand New Single

Leave a comment

From the looks of things, Gus Baldwin is going to have a pretty busy year; he’s already released one album with The Sketch (which we raved about), but now we’re hearing that there’s a pocket full of solo releases lined up. Our first listen is a bit of back and forth banter between what one can assume is an AI robo-date and another character of Baldwin’s design. There’s this plodding back and forth for a moment, then the track opens up into this more garage-psych realm, using stair-stepping guitars and blasts of fuzz to guide us on this journey into the hedonistic realm of skronking horns and swirling madness. One of my favorite Austin acts, you dig?

Dag Och Natt Share Falling the Same Way

Leave a comment

We were super excited to bring you a Dag Och Natt track just a few weeks ago, and I think they’ve only stepped up their game, so to speak, in regards to this new single. There’s something brooding in the mood itself, perhaps with that guttural bass line operating throughout. But, when it comes to the vocals and the guitars, they seem to embrace the meaning in the song’s title; I keep feeling myself sort of spinning and swirling through some atmospheric space, suspended. The further along the tune moves, the more they build and layer texture, openly welcoming you into the darkened abyss of their brilliant brand of pop. Their LP, Years and Years will be released on August 15th via Labrador.
