Tommy & Linda – Beach Bums
We're psyched to debut the first single from mysterious new duo Tommy & Linda (if you know, you know). "Beach Bums" is a breezy, laid-back house gem that recalls the sunnier side of the Mood Hut sound, with its warmly glowing synths, pleasantly meandering bassline, and those fleeting, blissfully dreamy vocals...
video: Lou Rebecca – Tonight
Parisian born, Austin-based ballerina and pop artist Lou Rebecca's debut EP is out today on Austin label HOLODECK, and it's one of our favorite releases of this young year. We're psyched to share her dreamlike self-directed video for the EP's entrancing opening track, the late-night dance-pop anthem "Tonight", starring Lou Rebecca & Ramesh Srivastava...
stream the lovely debut EP from Austin-based Parisian Lou Rebecca

Pye Corner Audio x Faten Kanaan – The Darkest Wave

ela minus – ceremony
Bogotá, Colombia electronic artist Gabriela Jimeno, aka ela minus, shares an enchanting new track from her forthcoming Adapt EP, out next week. It's a bright and nimble synth gem that recalls Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith's poppier side, but the track's light effervescence is tempered by a distinct, bittersweet melancholy and nostalgia for "Ceremony", and the disheartening lack thereof. Gabriela says of the track:
listen to “She’ll Kill You” + “A Kiss” from the Stranger Things soundtrack
I can't recall any film/television score's release being as feverishly anticipated as this one: volume one of the Stranger Things OST, the perfect soundtrack for "bike rides and monster hunts", courtesy of Kyle Dixon + Michael Stein of Texas band S U R V I V E, officially drops tomorrow on Lakeshore Records...
premiere: S U R V I V E – A.H.B.
We're psyched to premiere the opening track from the brilliant forthcoming full-length from Austin analog synth wizards S U R V I V E, due this fall on Relapse Records. While we're hesitant to throw the word "epic" around haphazardly, it certainly applies to the group's thrilling, darkly gleaming, otherworldly synth odysseys, which are truly transportive and majestic (there's a reason half of the group was tapped to score the best supernatural alien adventure since the '80s, and they delivered an eerie instant classic)...
Boy Harsher – Yr Body is Nothing
Yr Body is Nothing is the darkly beautiful and very emotional new record from Boy Harsher, on which the duo explores "the connection between fear and desire" via their eminently danceable take on shadowy, visceral post-industrial synth-pop...
