I have been waiting to make this Song of the Day for 5 days. A sad admission on my part, but it’s finally live and I can express my unconditional love. Firstly, this is my favourite song released so far this year. Bossy Love have nailed it, this is a heart-bursting, body-moving, electro-pop anthem. John…
As a teenager, when it came to buying new records I would do one of three things.
Fresh: WOMP! & Maya Payne – ‘Falling (Remix)’
Los Angeles producer WOMP! has collaborated with New Zealand native singer/songwriter Maya Payne on new release ‘Falling‘. The result is a deep, heady, delicious mix of electro. Payne’s vocals set this apart from other techno duds leaving you cranking up the volume and hitting repeat.
Ben Phipps – ‘Alive (feat. Ashe)’
Sweden is dominating a lot of my listening at the moment, it continues today with Ben Phipps. Phipps has once again collaborated with Nashville vocalist Ashe on the sensational dream electro-pop hit, ‘Alive‘. With chasmal bass drops and electronic flourishes, this is great, but it’s Ashe’s vocal that takes this to another level. She has…
Fresh: Melby – ‘Human’
Stockholm-based quartet Melby have released beguiling single ‘Human’ and as an initial taster, it’s subtle arrangements illustrate a band comfortable in their own style.
Fresh: Avec Sans – ‘Heartbreak Hi’
I am still a sucker for euphoric 80s-influenced anthems and London-based duo Avec Sans have delivered another one in the shape of ‘Heartbreak Hi’. The first single from their forthcoming album is an exhilarating arrangement of electronic brilliance. Alice Fox‘s sentimental lyrics put a heartbeat at the centre of the automation and it’s very difficult…
Gold Light – ‘Rosebush’
Gold Light is the ongoing music of North Carolina’s Joe Chang, best known as a sideman playing guitar for indie folk act Kovacs and the Polar Bear, their sublime track ‘Rosebush’ is our Song of the Day. Delving perfectly into emotional unrest, this is a song bursting with life and potency. Coasting on romantic minor-chord melodies and huge emotional swells,…
Fresh: Fraea – ‘Criminal’
Having already supported Poliça, Minneapolis duo Fraea have already set tongues wagging with their heady sounds.
Fresh: Infinity Bell – ‘Without’
Glasgow has this knack of catapulting a new, ridiculously well-produced artist every now and then. Today is the turn of Infinity Bell. ‘Without’ has emerged on SoundCloud and is by far one of the most confident and assured debuts from an artist. With an intelligent approach to production, it’s pop sensibilities still manage to melt…
Fresh: ELKA – ‘Burnt Out’
London-based quintet ELKA have released meritorious new single ‘Burnt Out’ taken from their self-titled due out 9th March.
