Tesla Boy "Broken Doll (feat. Tyson)"

Tesla Boy have released yesterday their album "The Universe Made of Darkness". As part of this amazing released they've sent over the first single "Broken Doll featuring none other than Tyson. This might be the most amazing  track of  the month, as it unites two amazing talents, Tyson, with his 80's Billy Ocean sound and Tesla Boy, who are an electronic powerhouse, it honestly doesn't get any better.

Theophilus London "Rio feat. Menahan Street Band"

The video was released about a week and a half ago, but once I saw it I couldn't stop my self form posting it.  Currently Theophilus London has a few shows in store starting July, as well as a performance in Lollapalooza.

Clubfeet "Cape Town"

Melbourne band Clubfeet have been getting some love in the last few weeks, and it's no surprise! I fell in love since watching their hypnotizing video, "Everything You Wanted", and today they come with a very easy listening Pop Disco track called " Cape Town", think "Paris" remixed by Au Revoir Simon, (Yeah, that good). Their album is out in Australia but of course no date as of yet in the US.

Crystal Fighter " LA Calling"

It's almost here y'all!! The long awaited album by Spanish band Crystal Fighters it's a few days away, and this guys are doing things right. Today I received the next leaked track from their upcoming May 27th release "Cave Rave", and every time we get a new track, it makes it easier for the world to fall in love with this upcoming album. The new track is called " LA Calling"; this tropical track comes just in time for the warming weather here in the US, which makes us all think on sunshine and fun. The album is available for per-order in iTunes so don't wait.

No Middle Name " When Forever Ends"

As a blogger I'm always looking for the next sound, the next trend in music, because everything starts with one artist taking a leap and then the industry follows (Electronic music in 08/Mainstream Electronic 2012). Today UK artist David Bailey, on half of the band The Title Sequence, have sent over their new track from his new project called No Middle Name. The first track  form  this brand new project is called " When Forever Ends", the track has very Beatlesk sound (Beatles "And I love her" ) but it is absolutely wonderfuly updated for our times, thus creating a new sound for indie music. His album Another Season will be released this summer, but this track is a great preview.

Josephine Foster "Shay Shay"

Weird and quirky, but still a blog favorite, Josephine Foster it's re-releasing her 2001 album recorded in her own home, titled " Little Life". With simplistic yet beautiful sound, Little Life shows the great song writer and all around musician Josephine Foster has been since the beginning. With the re-release in June 11, Little Life will finally have the well deserve exposure it deserves. She has also started her spring tour, so if you are in the path of this wonderful musician go and see her.

Sir Sly " Gold Betablock3r Remix)

I wish I had something more to go with but sometimes the artist want to save me time by just going to the point, i.e. the music. This is a remix of the February release from Cali band Sir Sly, and it was remixed masterfully by Betablock3r, which is a band but I honestly could not find much info on them...still enjoy.

Trails and Ways Live

Currently Trails and Ways are working on some tunes, so essentially this is sort of a fluffer post. The Band is getting ready to start their first tour, leaving their day jobs behind, and from what I saw in SWSW a few of them might have just graduated high school. In the mean while if you are in the northern part of the country and want to check out a great show, I can attest that this band puts on a great one.

Seasfire " Oh Lucifer"

After a great run last year on their last EP. " We Will Wake", Bristol band Seasfire are back with a very smooth EP titled, " Oh... Lucifer". The track is dark, without being overpowered by it, it is quite beautiful, it almost feels like the track is somewhat soaring from the darkness.

Crystal Fighters " You & I"

May is almost here! The exciting thing about it, is that the long awaited album by Spanish band Crystal Fighters, will be released on May 27th. The band just recently leaked the newest track from "Cave Rave", and it's called "You & I" which has a very African/Caribbean sound; with it they've also sent over a video to go with it, now be aware that although the song might sound upbeat, the video is not...let's just say I have a knot in my throat as I type this...but is definitely
worth watching. By the way have I mentioned how much I want to purchase this album?

Le Couleur " Vacances de 87" Featuring French Horn Rebbelion

Lately Canada has been enticing my senses more and more; not only Peter Peter is one of my favorite artist as of late, but I've been consistently watching HGTV,  but I digress. Today Canada showed me why you should never underestimate the polite ones.

Le Couleur  it's a Canadian band that are getting ready to release their EP. "Voyage Love", and they've honored me by letting me preview it before the release in April 30th. The 5 track French speaking EP. starts with a very intense electronic track called " Voyage Amoureux",a track that will linger in you head for a while, as it's main chorus is very catchy. I have to say my personal favorite track is a transition track called "Petite Piano Electrique", because is quirky and unlike anything that has been done lately. The EP is put together with a super track, in which the band partners with my all time favorite Brooklynites, French Horn Rebellion, and is the track that made salivate the hardest. Overall this is one of my favorite EPs I've received this year...Superb!!

 

Stars "Hold On When You get Love And Let Go When You Give It" (Com Truise Remix)

Yesterday I received the remix of Quebec band Stars, it is of their long titled track " Hold On When You Get Love And Let Go When You Give It. It is remixed by none other than New Jersey artist Com Truise, who is touring Europe this month, and the Stars just happened to preform yesterday in Coachella.

Futurecop! "Misathr:)pist Wolf"

A much darker sound than in their track Atlantis 1997, UK electronic duo Futurecop! delivers a very different yet familiar 80s sound on their latest track, " Misathr:)pist Wolf" which will be released on May 6th on Kiez Beats. After years of being a huge fan of Futurecop! I have yet to get tired of their music, and yet I don't think they care much what people think, as they seem to never steer away form their, 80s video game electronic sound.
