[PREMIERE] LUNA MAY - SILLY BOYS

July 6, 2018 marks the rise of a fresh new UK-based label, Absent Mind Records. The label’s debut release casts the Australian LUNA MAY, a striking flower child with a noticeably spooky aura. “Silly Boys” is a feminine anthem pollinated with strength and ease. LUNA’s female prowess dominates a smoked out beat that builds avenues of slackened sentiments and ancient philosophies. Confidently stitched together by the shaky hand of feminism, her temptation is palpable in “Silly Boys,” giving rise to a genderless sort of resilience. Lo-fi and bedroom ready, “Silly Boys” is succulent, drifting and lush, yet defined by moments of grit and backbone. A myriad of musical arsenals collide to create a sonic ebb and flow of emotions and allure. Righteously witchy, LUNA MAY is setting the standard for Absent Mind Records, watch this space for more from the UK label.

DEON CUSTOM - WITH YOU

The San Holo-founded bitbird label has been on a serious roll since it was started in 2014. They've been signing young musical visionaries left and right who are indisputably paving the path towards the future for electronic music. An example of one of these power players is Dutch artist Deon Custom. He recently released his single "With You," which comes with much variegation as it pulls elements from multiple genres such as chill, indie, lofi, experimental and electronic. The song gives way to a psychedelic journey as it delicately weaves intermittent waves of both dissonant and constant harmonies through a down-tempo beat and a spectrum of glitchy synths. To say the least, I'm definitely looking forward to hearing what else Deon has in store for 2018.  

TWO FRIENDS - BANDAID

What started as simple bedroom studio sessions, LA’s electronic duo Two Friends have witnessed an onslaught of upward trajectory in recent years. Revered for their stunning rework of The Killers’ Mr. Brightside, Two Friends continues to leave their lasting influence with their original joints. Their latest drop, “Bandaid” is a robust, funky, summer-ready framework embellished with artistic intricacies. Subtle trap notes wisp around a more prominent, bouncy production leaving space for femme-style vocals to shine with a sense of divinity. Bold, and parade-like, “Bandaid” is a testament to the duet’s broad artistic scope and versatility as producers. Derobe, grab a beer, and get down with this groovy piece from Two Friends.

SMALLTALK - YOUNG

A few months ago, we introduced you to smalltalk, the LA/SF based duo consisting of Peter Fenn and Parker Livingston who make vibey electro-tinged indie soul music. Their sophomore single as smalltalk, “Young”, starts with Fenn’s chopped up raspy vocal over gentle synths then slowly builds with the addition of a hip-hop inspired beat. More calming melodic production enters the frame as the hooks start to leak out from Fenn’s cheeky voice box. “Young, young, we were too young” and “all I do is think about it” will burrow into your head by the end of the song. Just listen to this one a few times through, and trust me, you’ll be tapping your toes and singing along without even realizing it.

K?D - A.I.

Hold on to your hats y'all - this new K?d track is fucking fierce! As if we didn't already know ... but come on yo! The phrase "going in" is what instantly comes to mind. Our yung friend delivers a fantastic ominous track with all the dark electro vibes you could ever need.  Once again K?d sets the bar with "A.I." and I don't see things slowing down. K?d embarks on his debut headline tour this fall - we'll definitely be hitting a few of these dates! Check HERE to see if he's in your city and swoop some tickets! You can stream/download this bad boy HERE!
