NEW TRACK: Elohim – Sensations

Listen to “Sensational”, an anthemic track about the singularly blissful moment of being in love. Elohim, a somewhat mysterious singer/songwriter from L.A. has already released a bunch of songs (like this one) and is now readying her debut LP, due on May 20.

SONG PICK: Tusks – False

This is what I find currently the most exciting kind of music: an effortless blend of guitars and electronics, cool and emotional at the same time. “False” by Emily Undersell, who goes by the name Tusks, combines all this in a wonderfully slow-building track. “I still believe in you”, she[…]

PHOTOS: Twin Wave Celebrate their Single “Matador” with a Packed Show at Baby’s All Right

Twin Wave are one of the hottest bands to come out of Brooklyn these days. Crafting highly infectious songs over guitar driven, synths-infused dream-pop, topped off with charming power vocals – clearly more and more people take notice!

NEW ARTIST: Year Of The Brother

Always happy to find upbeat music, that’s not too sugary sweet or trying too hard to please, I recently came across “So Far, So Good” by Year Of The Brother. The band, consisting of Brennan Mari (lead vocals), Elijah Gundlach (guitars and other instruments) and Tom Rydquist (production), could have also a gotten a[…]

SONG PICK: Chelsea Lankes – Paralyzed

Let’s end this somewhat L.A.-heavy week with Chelsea Lankes, whose new song “Paralyzed” is perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Her dreamy reflection about a relationship of the kind “Maybe it works out, and maybe it doesn’t”, could very well take place on a sunny beach – there are seabirds[…]

LATE NIGHT: Agelast – Fever

In the mood for something Saturday-night cool, the perfect mix of synths, dance beat, rock guitars and vocal chops all accumulating in a hard-to-resist super catchy track? Look no further but listen to “Fever” now, the new single by Agelast, a duo from… nope, neither LA, nor New York but Nashville! “Fever” is one these[…]
