[new] Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros: Better Days
the lead single from their forthcoming self-titled third album
Tom Odell: Best of friends (Palma Violets cover)
this is such a brilliant version of the original song….on repeat :)
LCD Soundsystem: Yeah (crass version)
a lesser known single from 2004 which is such a quintessential dance punk jam.
Dirty Beaches: Casino Lisboa
delicious darkness from Alex Zhang Hungtai’s recently released double LP Drifters/Love Is The Devil

Majical Cloudz comprises the duo of Devon Welsh and Mathew Otto. Their music is a form of bare, minimalist alt pop that I found pretty intriguing. The duo has just released their debut LP Impersonator; check out two of my favourite songs – Childhood’s End and Turns Turns Turns – from it below and let me know your thoughts on the music.
[new] The Weeknd: Kiss Land
This guy can churn out music magic with his eyes closed, this one’s slightly long drawn though.
Lanterns on the Lake: Another Tale From Another English Town
This Newcastle band (if i recall correctly) were on my bands to watch in 2012 list but kinda went quiet after the release of their debut album. Glad to see they and their gorgeous dream pop is back.
Another Tale From Another English Town is the sublime first single from the bands forthcoming second album, out later this year
