Flying Lotus – MmmHmm
Mindblowing new video for Flylo’s track “MmmHmm” off of his latest LP Cosmogramma. On another level entirely.
HEALTH – Die Slow (Tobacco Remix)
HEALTH’s single “Die Slow” has been getting some serious remix work since it dropped last year. This one from Tobacco (of Black Moth Super Rainbow notoriety) is particularly nasty. Tobacco’s characteristic analog synths and slumping beats play real nice with Jake Duzsik’s ethereal vocals. If Black Moth and HEALTH banged, this track would pop out 9 months later.
Comanechi – Close Enough to Kiss (Blondes Pebble Beach Remix)
Super deep remix of Comanechi’s Close Enough to Kiss from Brooklyn house duo Blondes. I wish I could go back in time and bribe Sofia Coppola to slip this beast into the Lost in Translation soundtrack.
You can pre-order Blondes’ upcoming Touched EP here. Also check out Comanechi’s latest LP Crime of Love. Don’t sleep on these guys.
Dan Auerbach – Heartbroken, in Disrepair
Think of your last bender. Roll credits. Play this song and reminisce in the wake. Dan Auerbach’s got this one.
Neon Indian – 6669 (I Don’t Know If You Know)
It’s taken me a little while to digest Neon Indian’s Psychic Chasms (2009). This is strange, considering that the other two heavy-hitters riding the “chillwave”…wave were instant loves for me (them being Washed Out and Toro y Moi). That changed in the last week or so when this track really started resonating with me. Suddenly, the entire album made sense. Highly recommended listening.

The Beach Boys – Little Bird
This track is off of The Beach Boys‘ fourteenth album Friends. It’s a short album with short songs. All of them but two are under three minutes.
Little Bird has the gnarliest cello breakdown I’ve ever heard. This song is begging to be sampled by an apt hip hop producer.

Lone – Karen Loves Kate
Lone (aka Matt Cutler) is a producer out of Nottingham, known primarily for his warm and woozy hip-hop beats– falling somewhere between Boards of Canada and Flying Lotus. With its laid back airy vibe, Karen Loves Kate sounds like a something you’d hear at J-Dilla’s pool party.
