Generationals - Spinoza


Now that summer’s been punching you in the face every day, cool off with the hazy sounds of “Spinoza,” the latest cut from Generationals’ new album HEZA.

Breezy vocals, bright guitar lines, and an insanely catchy, upbeat hook – what more can you ask for to help beat the heat.

Empire Of The Sun - Alive


It's about damn time! Empire of the Sun is back with a new album and the lead single "Alive," is one helluva dance floor banger. Expect this to be played endlessly all summer long.

Ice on the Dune drops June 18th, so mark your calenders.

Cub Scouts – Pool!


Just in time to cure those winter blues, Cub Scouts is back with a brand new video for their breezy new single “Pool!”

With sugary sweet lyrics like “There is a pool and we must go/It’s just something we need to do,” this aptly named quintet has all the optimism, pluck, and charm of the Khaki Scouts from Wes Anderson’s Moonrise Kingdom.

7Bit Hero – Come On. Stand Out.


Punch those Monday blues in the face with the out of control “Come On. Stand Out,” courtesy of Australia’s 7Bit Hero. Like Cut Copy on an insane sugar high at an adolescent slumber party in the early 90’s, this Brisbane quartet is blowing up the dance floor with 16-bit Nintendos.

Watch the winsome video for “Come On. Stand out.” below and be sure to head over to bandcamp where you can snag a free download as well as the rest of their EP We Eat Loot.

AA Loves – Holychild


From the sensuous Portishead-tinged “Watching Waiting” to the heavily sedated Passion Pit-esque “Diamonds On The Rebound” to the exuberantly wholesome earnestness of “Best Friends”(think Freelance Whales), Holychild is pure guiltless fun.

Cool and abstract enough with multiple rhythm changes and heavily syncopated beats for young hepcats, but winsome enough for moms with lyrics like “I have the best friends,” expect Holychild to be played on every car commercial, Microsoft ad, or Jamba Juice in a year or two. I mean that in the most positive way. Honestly, I’m trying hard to be sincere.

Anyways, listen below and judge for yourself and if you like what you hear head over to soundcloud to snag some free downloads.

AA Loves – Junior Prom EP


New York indie pop duo Junior Prom’s latest EP is a merciless assault on the dance floor – 18 minutes of uninhibited endorphin saturated fun. These two are straight slaying it with their monster hooks and sex-tronic beats. We’re talking massacre at the disco.

Stream the album below or head over to bandcamp to snag your free copy, and be sure to listen to “Sheila Put That Knife Down.”
