Kelsey Lu follows up her lovely Joni Mitchell cover/Sampha collab with a sprawling, dreamily atmospheric rendition of "I'm Not in Love". Video by Alima Lee + Kelsey Lu:

"With the ability to travel in time, a lonely girl finds love and comfort by connecting with her past self. Eventually faced with rejection she struggles with her identity and gender, and as time folds onto itself only one of them can remain." Directed by Eddie Alcazar.

We're not typically into the concept of the "song teaser" as a general rule, but the masterfully executed "xamples" that Toronto pop star/enigma Allie X has been rolling out as a preview of her forthcoming debut record CollXtion are a decided, unequivocal exception...

Slow dance through the tears to Young Ejecta's twinkling, intensely love-damaged new single/breakup anthem "Welcome to Love", taken from their excellent new mini-album The Planet, out January 27, 2015, on Driftless Recordings:

Preview the glowing new 6-song mini-album from the duo formerly known as Ejecta: Young Ejecta - The Planet is coming January 2015 on Driftless...

We've established by now that we're in love with Ejecta's debut album Dominae, and new single "It's Only Love" is our current favorite track from the LP. A little more upbeat & optimistic (or possibly just more resigned) than the other stuff that's been unveiled, but with the same tinge of longing, sadness, and regret that makes the record such an emotional/heartbreaking listen...
