Erin Maher1 Comment

Good morning world!  Today is extra good, because I get to wake up to a new Wild Cub track!  "Blacktide" dropped today and it's every bit of awesomeness you can expect from Wild Cub!  Get your dance on - this track has elements 80s new wave mixed with synth pop - I a hear a little touch of The Cure in there!  These guys are some of my favorite people of 2013 - and I'll finally get to see them again next week when they play Beautiful Buzzz SF show #FOUR - Tuesday July 30 @ Neck Of The Woods!  SIKED!   

NEW VIDEO: PAWWS - TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

Erin MaherComment

Pawws - the alias of North London electronic pop starlet Lucy Taylor - releases her debut video to coincide with the release of double a-side single "Time To Say Goodbye / Slow Love", released July 15th on ASL Records.

With her keen ear for melody twinned with a classically trained musical background, Taylor's talents have already seen her working with the likes of Bloc Party's Kele Okereke and MGMT.  With her own productions appearing on Soundcloud late last year, her name has already been touted by the likes of NME Radar and DIY Magazine as one of the hottest pop properties around today.

NEW VIDEO: DU TONC - RISE

Erin MaherComment

I am OBSESSED!  Du Tonc is blowing my fucking mind!  I stumbled across this band by total accident a few weeks back, and not its all I can listen to!  When someone asks me what new music I have been listening to, I say Du Tonc.  When someone at a after party says to put on a song, I put on Du Tonc.  When I go to sleep at night, I dream of Du Tonc!

Du Tonc is Matt Van Schie and Mighty Mouse. REDIC! Check out their new video for "Rise" and get your dance on!

NEW VIDEO: FRENCH HORN REBELLION - JOHNNY SMASH

Erin MaherComment

Here they are again - some of the most adorable brothers making indie dance pop better than most!  French Horn Rebellion have been funking it up this year, all their new tracks are discolicious and bootay shaking good!  This new video for "Johnny Smash" is better than most of the coolest things you've ever seen!  French Horn Rebellion will be back in the bay area playing songs next month, and then I heard a rumor that they may or may not be hanging out with Beautiful Buzzz in some way in the not so far future...I don't know, it's just a rumor so......LOVE THEM! 

REMIX: ADMIRERS - SPIRIT LAMP (JOYWAVE REMIX)

Erin MaherComment

I know a couple great guys who have blog/label called The Most Definitely, and I am pretty sure we were meant to be music soul mates.  We are always turning each other on to AMAZING new artist, and I think the world of them - and their blog rules.  So during a conversation about CMJ they talked about Joywave, and because I can't possibly know everything, I took note of the name I had not heard, and later looked them up! 

Ummmm - Bananas!!!  Joywave has recently made the top of my list of new artist I am most excited about!  The Joywave remix of "Spirit Lamp" by Admirers came up in my inbox yesterday, and I wanted to share it with all of you!  I also included a Joywave remix of "L.A. Lights" by KOPPS - you can download both tracks for free too!  Rad!    

NEW MUSIC: POLARSETS - JUST DON'T OPEN YOUR EYES YET

Erin MaherComment

Yes!  Super excited for this!  Polarsets have a new single "Just Don't Open Your Eyes Yet" and I love love love it!  We had the pleasure of meeting Polarsets at SXSW 2012 - they played our showcase and were absolutely AMAZING!  We had been gushing over their "Morning" single since 2011 and were very excited to have them party with us in Austin!  Finally we have a new track from Polarsets, and we can't wait to hear more!  The single officially drops September 1 via Neon Gold - but you can listen to it here now!   

NEW MUSIC: CLUBFEET - EVERYTHING YOU WANTED

Erin MaherComment

Alright America - here is another amazing Australian indie synth dance pop band you need to know!  This is our second Australian pop music hour of the day, fuck yea!  Aussie / South African five-piece Clubfeet have just released their AA single "Everything You Wanted / Heartbreak" - showcasing the band's melancholic synth-pop and deep indie-electronica.  I mean.....that just sounds AMAZING!  "Everything You Wanted" is a bittersweet anthem for youthful naivety, propelled by Kavinsky-esque synths and spacious Peter Gabriel soundscapes.  This is one of the first tracks taken from Clubfeet's forthcoming second album Heirs & Graces - out September 3rd in the US.  You can pick it up on iTunes HERE today...... do it!!

NEW MUSIC: ST. LUCIA - ELEVATE

Erin MaherComment

Well, here it is - something we have all been waiting for - new music from St. Lucia!  "Elevate" dropped today and I am so happy I feel like I'm floating - which is kinda the feeling this new track creates.  This is classic St. Lucia, happy bouncy big sounding music with that tropical flavor that makes life......better!  I just know the remixes for this track are going to be HUGE!  It's good, real fucking good...... it's St. Lucia
