Red hot new band crush. TOWER hail from the San Fernando Valley California and chose to take the mysterious-keep-information-to-a-minimum approach. They follow Van Halen and Nicki Minaj on twitter – and no one else. That’s all you need to know. Can’t Vibe however does sound awfully familiar – but maybe it’s just because it’s stuckkk in your head.
Hosting a WORLD premiere for this one: Sweden’s Ditt Inre present the latest remix of their single Formulär 1A off their debut album which is out on Cascine. Hilmer X has turned their peaceful ambient sound into a wild electronic twilight ride. The saxophone on this is literally blowing the roof off this song. SO good. Hilmer X is producer Joel Hilme from Stockholm who is currently working on his own debut album, definitely something to keep an eye on.
Meanwhile, this remix is a tribute to the Godfather and pioneer of house music Frankie Knuckles, who passed away this Monday, March 31st, only 59 years old. Listen to Your Love, from 1987.
Now this is quickly developing into my favorite thing in the universe. About Girls show up out of nowhere and deliver these absolutely amazing remixes, on the reg. First Rick Astley – amazing – and now this is their latest treat, a remix of Pumpin Blood by NONONO, as part of a remix competition they had going on. If you think about checking out the other ones, don’t, this is THE ONE.
And you know that it is THE ONE when you see it. End of story.
Refreshing sounds coming in from Liverpool’s Beach Skulls. Unsure about the conditions Liverpool has for a surfers’ paradise but the duo’s lofi surf-pop brings out the spring at Poule headquarters for sure. More please!
Also, you do not want to miss the beautifully shot and produced video to their song U Were Mine. Attached below is In The Dark, both songs off their stellar EP A Different Kind Of Smooth, out April 18th. So hooked.
No, there is no one sitting next to you these five Danes are staring at. OR IS THERE! Don’t fall for their Kansas City Shuffle. Check your left too.
Either way, this is an epic song by The Olympics (pictured above – distracted) and 4U is only the first in a series of ten songs they promise to release over the course of the next ten months. Look out for more, this is the good stuff.
More great music coming in from Norway – Tôg are already highly praised back on their home turf and once again Scandinavia easily shows off his skills of producing great pop music without sounding one bit cheesy. Tôg’s new album Feiring is out now, and was produced by this chap Eric Broucek, you know, LCD Soundsystem, DFA. Casual.
Av Hengslene, by the way, translates to By Hinge according to google. Well, okay.
