El Perro Del Mar + Saint Etienne

El Perro Del Mar's latest single "Walk on By" got remixed by lovely Saint Etienne.

The Weeknd




On November 13th The Weeknd will be releasing his debut album Trilogy, a package of remastered versions of his three projects House of Balloons, Thursday and Echoes of Silence. Trilogy will contain 30 tracks, including three new ones: "Twenty Eight", "Valerie" and "'Til Dawn (Here Comes the Sun)". A couple of weeks ago he released the video to "Rolling Stones" off of Thursday and this week we get a video for the remastered version of "Wicked Games" from House of Balloons. Absolutely love it all.

Halls

If you, like me, enjoy moody, downbeat electronic beats, you should sit back and listen to Ark of London-producer Halls. Amazing debut album, if you ask me.

Toro Y Moi


Have a listen to this fantastic first track off Toro Y Moi's forthcoming LP Anything in Return. The LP is expected to be released in January.

Bon Iver

One of my absolute favorite tracks off the latest Bon Iver album now has a video!

Sigur Rós

Yup, I still get shivers when I listen to Sigur Rós. Here's the video to the song "Daudalogn" off their latest album Valtari. Nude man in the nature.

CFCF + Austra

Every year, the artists behind the Canadian indie label Paper Bag get together to cover one classic album. This year they covered David Bowie's The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Two of my favorite so-called newcomers - CFCF and Austra - teamed up to cover "Soul Love". Quite a fantastic cover, if you ask me. Have a listen, and judge for yourself.

Purity Ring + Danny Brown

By now, you should all be aware of my obsession with Purity Ring. The track "Belispeak" is probably my favorite off the near-perfect debut album Shrines. I came across this re-work, and I won't deny that I want to hear it on every single dance floor this fall.

S O H N

S O H N (pronounced Sonn) is a mysterious new electronic artist who recently provided us with the tracks "Oscillate" and "Warnings" (download them for free here). In a few weeks he'll release the official 12" The Wheel. Have a listen to the title track right here, and grab the whole thing over at the brand new label Aesop.

Baby Hide

Matt Hornick is a Toronto-based artist who for the past year or so has been creating ambient music under the name Baby Hide. Listen to some of his tunes here, and if it appeals to your ears - head over to his Soundcloud for the rest.

Soft Decay


Soft Decay is a German lo-fi dreamwave band with clear influences from the synth-pop/new wave scene of the 80's. I suggest you get their two singles here!
