The Neighbourhood has always emitted a sound that’s quintessentially cool. The California based band put together one of the better releases of the year with their free album I Love You., and they’re about to depart on their first nationwide, headlining tour. To kick it off the right way, they’ve … Read More
I still haven’t managed to make it to the theater to see The Great Gatsby, but I’m certainly still listening to the original soundtrack. Producers keep producing their own takes of the album as well, Madeaux being the latest and greatest. His take on “Young & Beautiful” incorporates electronic undertones, … Read More
Bastille has already taken over the UK, and he’s well on his way to capturing U.S. hearts and ears. “Pompeii” is the lead single off the debut album Bad Blood, and it’s their express lane ticket to U.S. stardom. No questions about it. Just to show off and prove that … Read More
If you haven’t been keeping up with the Kanye news for the past day, allow me to provide you with the sparknotes. On Friday, 5/17, Kanye pulled an outrageous stunt to debut a song off his new album, as he projected visuals of his face performing the new track, titled … Read More

You’ve never heard of Smallpools before. That’s not your fault, nobody has. “Dreaming” is the debut single from the L.A. natives, and it’s legitimately impossible to have a more impressive first recording. Soaring synths, energetic vocals, and several Passion Pit traits make this a top pick in my book as … Read More
More love from the land of the All Blacks this week in the form of a cool downtempo collaboration between The Naked And Famous and their fellow Kiwis, Kids of 88. A bit more chillwave than some of The Naked And Famous we’ve come to enjoy, but a building beat … Read More
About a year ago I found myself in the throes of a mild obsession with “Tryouts”, a track from sample-heavy electronic/pop duo Javelin. Although I’m somewhat shocked that song’s name isn’t indelibly burned onto my iPod screen, I’m actually more surprised at the fact that I hadn’t noticed Javelin had … Read More
