Girls Love Beyonce (Remix) feat. Adrian Per x JENI

I’m normally not the biggest fan of covers and would prefer for good artists to make their own tracks, but every cover of Jeni’s is pure gold. She must be a fan of Drake because her last cover was Drake’s remix of SBTRKT’s “Wildfire” and the very next one she’s gracing us with is Drake’s “Girls Love Beyonce”.

Dancing Anymore x Is Tropical

“Dancing Anymore” is the lead single off of indie pop band Is Tropical’s upcoming album, I’m Leaving, out May 20th via Kitsune.

I’m a huge fan of the Kitsune label. They have great taste in artists and I especially love their compilation albums. So, when they posted this video to their Facebook page with the caption “Youtube took Is Tropical’s video down (as expected), but you can still watch it on Vimeo” I was intrigued.

Clicked the video and it begins with a pool boy seeing off a MILF to be left alone in a mansion. I was certain the lady would come back and they would go at it or something like that. Boy, was I wrong!!! What a fucked up video! Haha! I don’t want to give this shit away, but just… WOW! I’m dying! Haha!

NSFW!!!

Attracting Flies (S-Type Remix) x Alunageorge

I’m a huge fan of UK duo Alunageorge. It’s obvious if you search “Alunageorge” on my page, but I admittedly wasn’t crazy about their newest single “Attracting Flies”. Even when an awesome video was released for the song in which classic fairy tales got an urban update, I still wasn’t sold on the track.

Thankfully, I can finally appreciate it. I’m really into this new S-Type remix. The beats got harder and the synths got a nice upgrade. Sick!

You can check out the video of the original track below if you’re curious. I do really enjoy the video despite my distaste for the original track…

Let It Go x Fe

Watching basically unknown artists blow up is always an interesting experience. I’ve seen it happen with Azealia Banks, Lana Del Rey, Icona Pop, and Purity Ring to name a few. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Fe, a singer-songwriter from London end up following in their footsteps.

I dunno what’s more hypnotizing; The percussion’s addicting beat along with her seductive vocals or her home-made video, with her wearing nothing but a Carmen Sandiego style hat and speaking volumes with her eyes.

I can’t wait to see what’s next for her!

Now Is Not The Time x CHVRCHES

My Sister texted me the other day and told me to check out Glasglow-based synthpop band CHVRCHES. Little did she know that CHVRCHES has been on my radar ever since their single “The Mother We Share” dropped in September of last year.

CHVRCHES just released a video for their newest tracks “Recover” and “Now Is Not The Time”. They aren’t flashy videos, but the old school roller rink atmosphere fits their 80s electronic sound.

Manhattan x Cat Power

One of my favorite Cat Power tracks finally got a video, unfortunately, it isn’t as great as the song. I love that Cat Power is just taking in Manhattan and all the glorious things the city has to offer, but I wish more time was spent walking around and interacting with the city instead of atop a bus much like the guided tour buses that all us real NYers laugh at as it passes us by. With all the tourists pointing their cameras every which way and not actually breathing in the life of the city, but merely standing on the edge of it all; Still very much an outside. I feel like this could be done way better.
