BroodsNew Zealand duo Broods, get straight to the heart of the matter in their new song, Mother & Father.With a catchy cascade of lyrics and pulsing chorus reigning out across a defiant drum beat, the duo's latest offering embodies that perfect young adult contradiction: Strong but not quite strong enough. Although Mother & Father doesn't feature on their current EP, it's got us all excited for the release of their up-coming debut album.

Girl-group M.O drop '90s-inspired, 'Dance On My Own'

avatars-000089895412-zojbrw-t500x500

The '90s was a prosperous time for girl bands, so it makes sense that the recent resurgence of girl bands has come with a certain '90s nostalgia attached to it. The latest group to try their luck in a quick-filling market is British RnB trio M.O. They're more likely to have hung with TLC than the Spice Girls back in the day with their sound focussed on lush harmonies and sassy intonation. The latest offering from the trio is, Dance On My Own. Just as Robyn did, they've made dancing on your own sound like a stack of fun, with drum n' bass-lite beats and a delectable vocal sample scattered throughout. If anyone's going to bring the '90s girl group renaissance to the mainstream, it will be these three.

Guerre channels JT on new track 'Tuk'

10150573_10154029883910324_5340257728144149478_n

Australian artist, Guerre, is part of a host of electronic musicians in the country making deeply intricate and interesting music. Tuk is the second offering off his forthcoming album, Ex Nihilo, and it's a flittering, neo-tribal exploration that features his whispy vocals running effervescently alongside. According to Guerre, the song is the most pop on the album and it's him "trying to channel all that Pharrell produced Justin Timberlake stuff". Ex Nihilo is out 4 July via Yes Please/Remote.

Le Youth recruits Javeon for Feel Your Love

leyouth-youredm

LA Producer, Le Youth, had an unexpected hit last year with his song COOL, which sampled Cassie's Me & You. He's now teamed up with newcomer Javeon, for another soulful slice of electro-house with his new track, Feel Your Love. It really ticks all the boxes. It's a glistening, supremely-produced cut that has enough grunt to be a major hit for him.

Listen to Billie Black's captivating debut, 'I Waited For You'

10312754_319380434878778_1301578820511082720_n

There's a plethora of young female artists channeling an electronic singer-songwriter vibe, but few are able to capture attention in the way Billie Black does. London artist, Black, has just dropped her first single, I Waited For You and it's stunning. She ever so slightly changes the track up melodically doing enough to pique your interest but at the same time the song barely wavers in sound or tempo. It's a sophisticated and vulnerable debut with a captivating video to boot. Releasing a song this intimate as a first taste is a brave move, but Black has pulled it off with the utmost grace.

RAC remixes London Grammar's track, 'Strong'

LONDONGRAMMAR

RAC has put his Midas Touch onto another song, this time turning London Grammar's Strong into gold. This version has a touch of broodiness and is not too dissimilar from the original, with RAC stating ,'with a voice like this, I just tried to stay out of the way.'

MNEK releases 'Wrote A Song About You'

Screen Shot 2014-05-27 at 11.24.44 pm

British singer-producer MNEK turned heads with his last single, Every Little Word, and not it seems he's set to do it all again. Wrote A Song About You will reportedly act as the first single off his forthcoming album. It's a deep-house flavoured song that is all about MNEK's smooth, RnB vocals. And he's only 19. Damn, I need to do something with my life.

Chet Faker - Talk is Cheap (Ta-ku Remix)

chetfakerpic

New Zealand beatsmith Ta-Ku and Aussie crooner Chet Faker have both scaled the heights of the industry at around the same time. Ta-Ku has provided stellar remixes for artists like Flume, BANKS and Childish Gambino while Chet Faker has released a number one album, Built on Glass. It makes complete sense that they find themselves strewn together with Ta-Ku remixing Chet's single Talk Is Cheap. Needless to say, it's great.
