Nine songs, hand picked and carefully curated for your listening pleasure. Enjoy.
Listen to all the tracks here.
16 Bit - Twice
Beautifully controlled post-dubstep at its finest. The piano riff keeps pace with thoughtful reflection and the vocals nestle perfectly giving a Zero 7 feel to the track.
Fleet Foxes - Lorelai
The only visual representation of Fleet Foxes music that i would except is the morning sun rising over a field busting with barley. Lorelai effortlessly pulls the strings of my folk heart. Summer love.
Smog - I Break Horses
This is a perfect example of a song being much more than the sum of its parts. You may just get hooked and listen to this on repeat, so beware.
Cut Copy - Where I'm Going
When you're instantly singing along to track, you must know you've hit a winner. Its irresistible not to join in with the chorus of 'yeah!'
The 2 Bears - Bear Hug
Tongue and cheek electro. You cant help but shuffle your shoulders to this, wait until it spins at your local discothèque and you'll be dancing like its 1999. Bear Hug is Joe Goddard (of electronic band Hot Chip) and Raf Rundell. If this is the first you have heard of this duo, check out their EP 'Follow the Bears'. Genius, sometimes music needs to be heavy to anchor your thoughts, and sometimes you just want a electro infused bearhug.
M83 - Midnight City
A perfect progression from 'Saturdays=Youth', and the sound of a band growing in every dimension. Even the Careless Whisper-esque sax does not tarnish a promising future.
The Horrors - Monica Gems
To describe this sonic explosion would be stupid when the song is there to be experience for yourself. This band is producing timeless classics today.
DJ Shadow - Coming On Riding (Through The Cosmos)
Pulling threads from all genres. There's elements of heavy rock, metal and progressive rock, bound together with effortless skill of DJ Shadow.
