A K U A - "Told You So" [Premiere]

Montreal-based A K U A (pronounced a-koo-ah) is a newcomer to the music scene, who has hit the ground running displaying a versatility in her sound that is hard to come by. Through both of her released songs A K U A blends R&B and soul to create vocals that can subtlety maneuver their way through an emotional ballad or carry a heavy presence over an experimental electronic beat. The latter of which is fully explored in her new song "Told You So" an unusual, yet surprisingly satisfying force that distorts hip hop...

Mount Kimbie - "You Took Your Time" (Feat. King Krule)

One of two anticipated collaborations between the production duo Mount Kimbie and fellow Brit King Krule hit the web today. "You Took Your Time" finds both Kimbie and Krule in transitional stages of their musical careers, as Kimbie have begun working in a studio and now include their own vocals in their music (listen to "Made To Stray" here) while Archy Marshall (King Krule) has been venturing off into the hip hop realm with his low-toned vocals. That being said it was tough to draw any kind of assumption of what a...

Mortar & Pestle - "Pristine Dream" (Antler Remix) [Premiere]

In coming to peace with the realization that the love that was once held for another is beginning to fade, we often turn to music to either find comfort or reflect on the situation. While this is the lyrical premise of Mortar & Pestle's debut "Pristine Dream", there is another apparent motive...

Maintaining the tranquillity of the original, while adding an unparalleled dimension of depth, Certain Creatures' reworking of Midnight Faces' "Feel This Way" is a whirling journey through countless fields of fertilized seed that sprout into a colorful and lively electronic entity. While both the...

Le Motel - "Scraboutcha"

Le Motel is one of those Soundcloud pages you happen to come across without remembering how you got there. "Scraboutcha" comes from a mysterious producer hailing from Brussels, Belgium, and I've been kind of blown away with all of his releases, this one in particular. Braine l'Alleud hides...

Sébastien Tellier & Caroline Polachek - "In The Crew Of Tea Time" [Video]

Combining iconic French multi-instumentalist Sébastien Tellier's soothing and subtle vocal approach with Charlift's Caroline Polacheck's sultry hymn-like chants creates one of the most captivating experiences of the year. Despite recording "In The Crew Of Tea Time" in Paris in the summer of last...

The Indie Sabbath - Week 37

 A Quick Word from the Author: I made a joke to a friend the other day that the Indie Sabbath is a bit like The Daily Show with Jon Stewart—as in we both go on random hiatuses for extended periods of time, only to return for a bit and joke about our absence. It's a recurring pattern that I...
