STRFKR – “Malmo”
I tried to put this jam on a Playlust a couple months back but copyright issues prevented it. This whole LP is great: “Miracle Mile“. If you ever get a chance to see them live, do it! crazy show.
Bass Drum of Death – “Get Found”
It’s time for some Ruckus provoking tunes. Bass Drum of Death are two guys from Mississippi that bring garage rock to a new level. If you’re into this jam, check out “Shattered”
P L A Y L U S T – M A Y
Well, it’s already the first Friday in May, and it’s time for the new P L A Y L U S T. Play & or Download it here
XXYYXX (feat. Steffaloo) – “Love Isn’t Made”
XXYYXX has been puttin’ out bangers for sometime now. We first heard of Steffaloo with her collaboration with Chrome Sparks on the tune: “All There Is” (Free Download for it). This one’s a year old but still just as good as the day it came out.
Ginger & The Ghost – “One Type of Dark” [Ta-ku Remix]
Ta-Ku does it again with this remix of Ginger & The Ghosts tune. Check out the original, it’s also incredible. Free Download Link
The Water – Johnny Flynn and Laura Marling
Johnny Flynn’s voice sounds much older than he looks. Heavy with sadness and wisdom, Johnny Flynn and Laura Marling’s sweet voice sweeps you away to a much more heavenly place.
Grateful Doom – “One More Beer”
Grateful Doom combines MF Doom & Grateful Dead to form a perfect spring/summer combination.
The Black Keys – “Everlasting Light” (Alex Winston Cover)
Alex Winston hails from the UK and this Black Keys cover is off of her album: “King Con”
K▼ZE – “..allure..”
Richmond Va’s own K▼ZE always brings the heat, this is a beat off his new album: “Keep Three“, buy the whole thing for $1.
Vanilla – “Hate To Ask”
Just put Vanillas “Soft Focus” back on. He put it out last May and is J Dilla incarnate if you ask me.
Mariah Carey – “Touch My Body” (Cyril Hahn Remix)
It’s always nice when someone totally flips a track that you didn’t like to begin with into something you love. Cyril Hahn does it again. Free download here
Yolanda Be Cool -”A Baru In New York” ft. Gurrumul (Flume Soundtrack Version)
I normally don’t use this word but this remix is EPIC. Flume remixes fellow Aussie Yolanda Be Cool‘s track for an incredible climax. If you haven’t been paying attention to our site we’ve been posting Flume since we first heard his remix of Ta-Ku’s “Higher”. He’s still killin’ it, see him live while it’s still $10.00, I can guarantee it won’t stay that cheap for long.
P L A Y L U S T – A P R I L
New Playlust for y’all, quite an eclectic mix from Motown to Rock. Free play/download and track listing as usual.P L A Y L U S T – A P R I L
Michael Kiwanuka – “Home Again”
I’m a bit late to Kiwanuka’s Soul train, but this tune and video are smooth as hell.

Deptford Goth is the alter ego of South Londoner Daniel Woolhouse, experimental pop, this tune’s low key.
Streets of Laredo – “Need a Little Help”
This band is from New Zealand but now resides in Brooklyn. We featured their song “Girlfriend” on our March Playlust Right now they are back home recording some new tunes. Look out for a potential interview with them when they get back state side in April.
White Williams – Route to Palm
It’s just one of those songs, man. What’s he saying? Does it matter? I don’t really feel like going into detail with who exactly White Williams is, but I think it’s the song that’s filling up my brain, and nothing else. Sit back, relax, and listen.
