There’s not much info on So & So, but I really like this kind of stuff. I first heard “Alone” a few days ago and it stuck with me. It’s an instrumental that starts with some pretty piano and unfolds into a hypnotizing jam featuring plucky synths, breathy vocal samples, and a sturdy beat. Listen to the rest of So …
Oshi – My Girl
The latest from Oshi is a beautifully melancholic tune with pristine production and original vocals from the man himself. “My Girl” features a beat that’s full of rich synths and crisp percussion, but it’s the addition of Oshi’s vocals that really sets this one apart. The young artist pours his heart out with powerful lyrics that evoke a hopelessly lovesick …
Taska Black – Backwards Love (ft. TRACE)
The bitbird label has been on a roll lately with releases from San Holo, Eastghost, and now a new single from Taska Black. “Backwards Love” is a delicate and dreamy electronic pop tune featuring sultry vocals from vocalist TRACE and warm, organic production from Taska Black. Pitched vocal samples and melancholic guitar strums build into cascading percussion and synths, with …
Petit Biscuit – We Were Young ft. JP Cooper
French producer Petit Biscuit enlists vocalist JP Cooper on this super laid-back new song, “We Were Young”. I’ve been fiending for this one ever since “Wide Awake” came out and blew me away, and I’m happy to say I’m really feeling it. It’s got a completely different vibe that’s fitting for the warm summer months, but it’s still superbly produced …

Forester – Spark
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 …
Jerry Folk – Sneeze
Here’s an upbeat instrumental tune from Jerry Folk‘s brand new Sneeze EP. Like the rest of the EP, “Sneeze” is a buttery smooth and tightly produced song that’s all too easy to get lost in. Complex rhythms of cool synths, catchy guitar riffs, chimes, and bouncy keys create an energetic, but mellow vibe. It’s also the only song on the …
Kasbo – Places We Don’t Know (ford. Remix)
Talented young producer ford. puts a deep, mellow spin on Kasbo‘s single “Places We Don’t Know.” He goes for a more organic sound with this remix, adding in layers of chill piano and allowing the song to build upon itself and naturally unfold. The result is a smooth reworking of an energetic original, and it marks yet another successful release …
Kidswaste – Sleeping Pills (feat. KOLE)
French producer Kidswaste enlists the beautiful and fast-rising vocalist KOLE for a dreamy new single called “Sleeping Pills”. The melodic production pairs nicely with KOLE’s softly crooned vocals, slowly building intensity before dropping into a speedy and hypnotizing chorus. It’s a prime example of Kidswaste’s ability to craft gorgeous electronic pop music. Check out more from both Kidswaste and KOLE …
MEMBA – Schools Out
MEMBA show off their versatility with “Schools Out”—a catchy and upbeat track that’s worlds apart from their usual heavier sound. They said it’s meant to express the childhood sense of wonder that everyone is born with, which is all too easy to lose touch with as you get older. I think they nailed that feeling with this one—the bubbly production …
