Brand new electronic group Emu Creek mesmerize with their debut song, “Time I Feel.” I’d say I’m anxiously awaiting their next song, but the first one has me feeling way too relaxed to worry about it. “Time I Feel” is a progressive house tune that gracefully evolves—ultimately hitting a peak around 3-minutes-in when warm waves of angelic vocals crash into …
Khruangbin & Knxwledge – Dearest Alfred (MyJoy)
Knxwledge + Khruangbin = đź’™ The best of both styles ooze together in this collaborative reworking of “Dearest Alfred.” Knxwledge’s hazy samples and instrumentation cruise alongside Laura Lee’s airy vocals, creating a pleasantly repetitive groove. The effect is warm and hypnotic, which is everything you’d hope to hear from a pairing like this.
CharlestheFirst – SOLUS
CharlestheFirst‘s deep and experimental bass music always delivers. His new album SOLUS was one of my most anticipated projects of the year, so naturally it’s been on repeat for me since it’s release last Friday. It’s a visceral 13-song journey that begs to be listened to late at night on your best pair of headphones. Dive in and experience the …

Candid Oak – The Path Forward
This is the first thing I’ve heard from Norwegian producer Candid Oak and it makes for quite the introduction. “The Path Forward” is a delightfully complex electronic tune with an energetic, but mellow, vibe. Rubbery synths and warped vocal samples cascade alongside a sturdy beat, creating an emotionally charged tune that just feels right. From start to finish it’s an …
RMR – Dealer
After stirring up a massive buzz with his bizarre song and video for “Rascal”, rapper/singer/creative genius(?) RMRÂ follows up with a new single called “Dealer”. The mysterious artist alternates between rueful vocals and rapid verses over a trap beat featuring twangy strings and a somber vibe. At first it might sound like another rapper boasting about the drug life, but in …
