Royals is seriously my favorite song right now. First heard it last Sunday and I cannot stop listening to it. Seriously. This girl is 16 and from New Zealand and has talent. The whole The Love Club EP she put out is solid and I just wish we had more from her to listen. Lorde will definitely be one to look out for in the future.
My next favorite song on this EP, The Love Club will keep you movin' with a bouncy vibe that get stuck in your head. Put these two songs on repeat, and get the rest of the EP as well. If that's what you're into. I know that I definitely am.
I wish I could be here while listening to this song. It is Magical.
Been listening to this song since December, and it is a perfect winter song. It is still winter right? Still enough time left to share it. This is another one where the remix is just flat out better than the original. Listen to it in the shower. Idk why. It's just so peaceful.
Sol has been all over the world, in the last year. Hailing from Seattle, he might be my one of my most favorite rappers period. Always reppin' the Pacific North West, and thrownin' down some of the sickest bars. He'll keep your body movin' with whatever he puts out. Here we get a video of his song written and recorded in Durban, South Africa, tellin' us when he is coming back. Sometime in April. I'm excited to see what he has been up to and how his travels will affect his future projects.
Another song that came out while Sol was away Old Him, was written while Sol was on a train traveling, and recorded in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. He had food poisoning while recording it because of his first experience with KFC, in India, make sense right? What he says, "While their reputation is subpar in the United States, both KFC and McDonalds are held in high regard as “middle-class” restaurants in parts of the world such as India and China. You will see young couples going on dates at KFC." Super weird to imagine.. Peep this
Life Size Ghosts seems to be getting quite a bit of attention.. Sometimes you get those remixes that are just gold. I think this one is better than the original song by Mt. Wolf. It is so chilled out and sets a mood that forces you to relax. "The Stars Ep" is perfect for a rainy day, to just sit inside and listen to. You can get if for free at Catching Flies website and download via facebook or bandcamp, which you probably should. Look out for more from this guy in the future.
Go Periscope, a local band from the city I currently reside, Seattle, is coming out with a new mix-tape! I loved some of the tunes on their last mix-tape project, and they just announced the release date of their next. "MISHMASH" will be released March 1st and will be totally free. I <3 Free MUSIC!! You should too. Here is the first track they just released off of it, and you can download it today.
Randomly heard this song pop up on my iPod today and was instantly feelin' it. Its a poppy house tune from the two-thousands. 00's? Does that work? I don't think so. This is just a snip of the full remix to Get Far's Shining Star. The track is around 7 min long, I have the radio edit, about 3 min, which seems more manageable, but the full song is great none the less. Listen and download below if you want!
This song seems appropriate for a Sunday post, "Livin' on Sunday" is Cris Cab's latest. I am absolutely lovin' everything he has been thrownin' at us lately. Pure Excellence in my opinion. Here is the "official video" for the song, with a little behind the scenes. I cannot wait for the sun to start shining more so I can break some of his stuff out. His Mixtape is coming out in spring, so it should be just in time for the summer sun to start shining.
One of my favorite songs right now. The perfect mix of chill, hip-hop and R&B by one of my favorite hip-hop remix/mash-up artists. Sometimes The Hood Internet just gets it right. This is definitely one of those times, currently putting this on repeat and it still isn't getting old.
and a Free Download.
I've really been diggin' this song "Boss" for a while now, the Ryan Hemsworth Remix is super chill and just has an overall good vibe to it. Especially if you're just lookin' for something good to sit back and chill with. Have a listen.
This song is awsome. Just released a few days ago. It really surprised me, even though it is just something fun that they have been working on. It is pretty cool to hear a poppier sound out of Relient K and I cannot wait for their new album dropping later this year sometime... Hopefully soon.
This song by Zedd is one that has been out for a while, but i've really been diggin' recently. In the past I haven't been the biggest fan of his music, but it is becoming a poplar banger that I have been hearing everywhere. I can see why! The video is sort of weird, but you can peep it below.
Get some Plug in Stereo playin in your speakers, its been raining for months and its finally time to start enjoying it with a good new acoustic EP. Plug in Stereo is releasing it for free on Feb. 14. It's going to have 4 songs off his new album coming out later this year. And over on purevolume he is posting the songs early. Slightly stoked. Have a listen.
