Owl Eyes - "Jewels & Sapphires" (Goldroom Remix)

Josh Legg’s current solo project, Goldroom, gives new meaning to a summertime soundscape. Calling his music “an amalgamation of dreamy synths, emotive vocals, and tropical disco grooves, Goldroom paints the soundscape of summertime in Los Angeles.” As a part of a remix EP for Owl Eyes, today we are given Goldroom's unique edit of her single “Jewels & Sapphires.” Taking the original tune, Goldroom turns the track into a dreamlike melody with the made-for-dancefloor seal of approval. Infused with soulful...

Julia Losfelt - "Away"

Representing Paris, France, Julia Losfelt brings her sensually soothing vocals and production skills to our attention. Losfelt's oddly chilling voice stands out with swirling, minimalistic effects and beats to back it up. Partnering up with Andrea Moonchild, who recently released Cruising, the two artists make up the start to their newly founded record label called Moose Records. Their aim more or less is to have artists under their label vibe these types of chill and mellow sounds. Given that Dream...

MRI - My Rhymes Vol. 1: Da Monster & Me [Album]

Music seems to be going through a wave of darker themes, as evident from both the electronic and hip hop worlds. Of course happy-go-lucky music will always be bumping at every party, but it just seems like 2010's (as a decade) might be a transitional period in which the music world juggles both...

Say Lou Lou - "Julian" [The Chainsmokers's Remix]

I’m really digging the new style that The Chainsmokers have taken on. Recently rebranding themselves under a more thoughtful, laidback and electronic pop-leaning sound, is something that’s making their old fans revisit their music and more importantly setting their music apart from the mode of...

Introducing: Wax Triptych

Given the three artists who make up Wax Triptych, it is only natural to wonder what a triptych even is. Well, according to Merriam-Webster, a triptych can be either "an ancient Roman writing tablet with three waxed leaves hinged together," modernly interpreted into visuals like this one, or,...

French Fries - "T.R.A.X.X." (Feat. Chaos In The CBD) [Video]

About two weeks ago, BBC Radio 1's In New DJ's We Trust started out the hour long program with one of the hottest songs to come out of Europe this year. It set the energetic mood of the show, and I needed to know who and what I was hearing the minute my brain registered how perfect this track...

Smith Westerns - "3am Spiritual"

Chicago's Smith Westerns have carved out a fair share of space in the indie market, possessing a sound that is shaped from infusing contemporary indie styles with influences that range from David Bowie to the 90's brit pop scene. Having released two previews of their forthcoming album Soft...
