Two tonsils lighter, a streamlined Poule d’Or returns to its regular programming: the lovely Sameblod from Stockholm released a new song Almost Virgin. Totally digging their warm vocal-driven electro pop without coming off too bombastic – looking at you Hurts. Also catch the pounding Feel My Breath on Poule d’Or 7.

Haven’t even remotely featured enough about the production geniuses that are Okinawa Lifestyle. The two lads reside in Georgia, that is the country Georgia, and produce the most brilliant electronic beats. I got a whole lot of mileage out of their last EP entitled Lazy Friend You Move So Fast and they now released their eagerly anticipated second EP Underwater. Likewise, it doesn’t disappoint a bit and could very well be your soundtrack for weeks to come. Check with their bandcamp now now now.
