There really isn’t anyone else making music like this right now, and judging from what we’ve heard so far, this album could be really special. Stream “Lost In My Mind” below and hang tight til October for SOLACE‘s release.

Jauz & Kiiara – Diamonds
Ignore the hate, the new Jauz album is fire. The Wise and The Wicked is an ambitious 23 songs long, and while they’re not all winners, the renowned EDM producer delivers a ferocious album full of bangers. My favorite is his collaboration with pop songstress Kiiara. “Diamonds” pairs Kiiara’s breathy vocals with bouncing bass and a slick beat. Give it a minute and you’ll be hooked like me.

Swedish based newcomer Eastern Odyssey hits the ground running with his debut EP, Chapter 1: Genesis. Standout track “Right Of Passage” is an upbeat song with expertly chopped vocal samples, shimmering synths, and an overall stunning progression from start to finish. The rest of the EP reminds me of some of Odesza’s work, so needless to say, it’s well well worth checking out.

Post Malone x Justin Bieber – Deja Vu (Whethan Remix)
New Whethan is good Whethan, and this remix was completely unexpected. The innovative producer puts a bubbly, futuristic spin on Post Malone and Justin Bieber‘s “Deja Vu” by adding a slew of unique sounds and a powerful, synth-laden drop. When I first saw the title I wasn’t expecting to enjoy this as much as I currently am, but damn if this isn’t the coolest thing I’ve heard all week.

Jerry Folk – Charlotte
Insanely talented producer Jerry Folk samples “Find You” by Charlotte Day Wilson in his latest release. Aptly titled “Charlotte”, this one had me entranced in a matter of seconds and fully hypnotized by the time the drums and vocals kicked in. Apparently this was released to hold us over until an official single is released next week, so be sure to follow Jerry Folk on SoundCloud and stay tuned.

Yoshi Flower – Brown Paper Bag
Yoshi Flower is easily one of my favorite new artists of 2018. I was hooked when I first heard him featured on Elohim‘s beautiful “Panic Attacks” and I’ve enjoyed everything he’s released since. His latest song “Brown Paper Bag” is a high octane tune that features killer guitar riffs, powerful bass, and a supremely catchy vocal performance. This guy is quietly releasing one great song after another, and it won’t be long before he gains the notoriety his talent demands. Check him out on Soundcloud and stream “Brown Paper Bag” below.
