I’ve really been enjoying these two 7″ singles by Robes. This brand of uplifting electro-pop may not be groundbreaking, but it’s endlessly enjoyable. Definitely check them out if you like Hot Chip, Cut Copy, etc. They’re both on colored vinyl and cost $5 each. Oh, the Kilian Eng cover art doesn’t hurt either. Visit their [...]

Mexican Summer recently dropped four amazing new vinyl releases, a feat most labels would be lucky to achieve in a full year.  The first, and the one that’s getting the most buzz around the internet, is “Ghost Blonde” from No Joy.  These two ladies hide melody behind a giant wall of fuzz, creating music that [...]

We’ve been beyond happy with the package that showed up on our doorstep from Ernest Jenning Record Co.  The clear winner of the batch is Charles Burst’s “The Famous Patient”.  This stuff is pure 70′s radio rock.  If hanging out on lakes getting sunburned and listening to classic rock is how you spend your summers [...]

Copy (aka Portland’s Marius Libman) is a singlehanded dancefloor destroyer, bringing beats that are both head-noddingly melodic and tastefully retro.  His new “Hard Dream” LP is sounding delicious so far, lined deep with references to 80′s culture and current electronic movement.  It can be bought on vinyl for a mere $12 at AudioDregs.com.

I’ve been listening to this EP by Tanlines for awhile now, just getting around to writing about it now.  This duo consists of one dude from Professor Murder and one dude from Don Caballero, quite the pedigree.  It is tropical dance-pop, you’ll either love it or hate it.  If you love it, the vinyl is [...]

I am loving the incredibly smooth sounds of Chicago’s Houses.  This “Endless Spring” video has been floating around since earlier this year, and it looks like the full LP is finally about to drop.  It is positioned among many other awesome upcoming records from Lefse for only $14.99.  Visit Lefse Records.

Just got two new singles in the mail from Gold Robot Records, I love with this little label is doing.  The first is a split from Colossal Yes and The Good Fear, two bands from two different sides of the country.  The music is pretty different too, the Colossal Yes side is a recorded-with-one-mic piece [...]

Romona Gonzalez’s Nite Jewel project is quickly catapulting her to goddess status among hipsters, crate-diggers, future-funk enthusiasts, and music nerds (us).  Her brand of sexy disco dream-pop is easy to get sucked into, it’s pleasant and pretty.  This new EP on Gloriette has six songs, some of which were reworked from past obscure releases, others [...]

Remember the morning you woke up after a night at the sleazy discotheque with a bloody nose, a few chipped teeth, white powder mashed into your pillow, and a loaded gun on your desk?  This record is probably what you were listening to the night before.  Fucking awesome.  The 7″ comes on clear vinyl for [...]

Baths, the solo output of LA’s Will Wiesenfeld, is Anticon’s newest signing.  His debut LP, “Cerulean”, is an exhilarating piece of music, seamlessly switching between organic indie rock elements and brain-scattering IDM beats.  You can also hear some of the LA beat scene in his music, as it seems Flying Lotus’ wonky style has pretty [...]
