Check out our sit down with rising rapper West, where we talk about his new single and video "Checks", going viral with his previous song "Euro$tep", Chinese rappers and influence, writing vs freestyling, and more.
On 'The Perks of Being a Hypocrite,' Amsterdam's Cosmic Crooner proves he deserves his artistic moniker.
Get ready to hit the dance floor and vibe into the late hours with Diamondz as he unleashes his latest single, "Speed Dial."
Dave Vampfer’s "Trick of Life Medley" just might do the trick to draw attention to his upcoming album.
Dent May is back with a brand new track, a bubbling power pop cut entitled "One Call, That's All," inspired by an ambulance chasing lawyer.
Describing male falsetto as soulful may be like describing chocolate as chocolaty, but Desmond Myers' singing and his "Playing with Fire" epitomize that.
Most people know Diplo for those big, dance ready anthems that shake the roofs off clubs, but on California EP he's opted for a more subdued, even emotional sound that's meant to move you in a different way than on the dance floor.
Taylor Swift certainly has a reputation...but do we care about her newest one?
Divide will undoubtedly be a commercial hit that will continue to catapult Sheeran into mainstream stardom. I found myself singing and humming along, but it's simple and idealistic songwriting left a lot of it feeling empty and uninteresting.
This was my first Feist album and it was an exceptional piece of art; full of raw emotion, minimalist production, and her incredibly layered voice. It was a surreal listen that left me floating through the ether and it's one of my favorites of the year thus far.
The "Lift Me Up" video lives up to its name. A succinct, but vivid narrative of a girl who literally needs some color in her life.
Florence + The Machine have produced a superb song brimming with brilliant dynamics and depth here and it's a hard thing not to appreciate.
Check out our sit down with rising teen singer-songwriter Yael Danon, where we talk about her new album 'Diary Girl,' winning Israel's Got Talent at 13, juggling three languages, balancing school and a music career, and much more.
Offering doesn't quite reach the heights of their debut and the music is noticeably brighter, shedding some of their darker undertones for a more generic pop album, but I'll be damned if it isn't catchy music all the same.
DaniLeigh's 'The Plan' was a surprisingly versatile project that was equally strong in its singing and rapping instances and she checks all of the boxes of a prototypical star in the making.
David Byrne has always been pleasantly weird and experimental and he once again tries to push the musical envelope. What results from that sincere push is at best, a mess however. It's a mash up of different sounds and influences that, when it works, can be refreshing and exhilarating, but those moments are far too often undercut by clunky breakdowns and unnecessary introductions of new elements.
Following the announcement of his new album, Dent May has returned with "Time Flies When We're Having Fun," featuring Pearl & The Oysters.
Check out our chat with rising pop artist DEVORA as we talk about her latest EP 'God Is Dead', blending country and goth, her brand of "outlaw pop", and more.
While Django Django's previous efforts felt a bit more artsy in intention, the experimentation on Marble Skies feels done with the sole purpose of creating something fun. And it is fun, it's a lighthearted, head nodding romp full of brilliant melodies and earworm hooks. It's almost impossible not to be pulled into their joyous orbit.
Drew Smith comes up with some pure unabashed, and at the same time, great pop on his newest EP 'Git Along, Little Doggie.'
Indie-pop duo Eighty Ninety announce their self-titled debut album, out December 15th, and share the album’s opening track, “Ruins."
Fences & Bonnie "Prince" Billy, come together to deliver both an impeccable original and cover single with "Niagara" & "Sympathy For The Devil."
Fever Ray's sound is not easily quantifiable nor is it's intent, it's quintessential mood music and just one of those things where you just know it when you hear it. I'm not sure that I enjoyed Plunge as much as her first album, at least not immediately, but there's no denying the sheer creativity and boundary pushing present that succeeds at evoking emotional response better than almost anything else that comes to mind.
Florence + The Machine try to strip things back for a more intimate listening experience. So there are more ballads and the production tries to be more subtle, but there's really only so much you can do to hold down a voice as powerful as Welch's.
