Charming steel drums and reverb drenched vocals make for a beautiful auditory trip on “Spark”—the debut single from California based duo Forester. It’s a gently rolling indie/electronic song that also features a chorus layered with pitched vocal samples and subtle bass synths, which add a bit of power to the otherwise subdued vibe. This is the first thing I’ve heard from Forester, but it’s enough to make a fan out of me. Stream “Spark” below and be sure to follow them on SoundCloud if you’re feeling it.

Whethan – Let Me Take You (feat. Jeremih)
I never would have expected Whethan and Jeremih to collaborate, so this comes as a welcomed surprise. Their brand new song “Let Me Take You” is a high octane house jam that’s deep and bouncy, with moody vocals from the supremely talented Jeremih. The chorus finds the vocals chopped up and paired with grinding bass, while the ever present rhythm pulses away behind it. This is a bit of a new direction for Whethan, but I’m feeling it, and I think “Let Me Take You” is destined to light up dance floors across the globe. Stream it below and head to Whethan’s SoundCloud for more.

It’s the second single off their forthcoming EP, SAGA-II, which is easily one of my most anticipated new projects. Stream “Walls Down” below and check out MEMBA’s SoundCloud for more.
