Fat Freddy’s Drop

Legit afrobeat, soul, reggae, dub, electronica. These guys are definitely on to something. They deserve a listen so check them out and get their album Dr. Boondigga and the Big BW. Get Funky!

Fat Freddy’s Drop – Boondigga

Phantogram

Hailing from Australia, this band is definitely something worth listening to. I have heard them classified anywhere from Trip-Hop to Postmodern Rock. Frankly, this duo is fresh. They have a new take on music and I love it. They seem to mix Electronica seamlessly with the new “Indie Rock” that is coming up. The delicate voice mixed with interesting electronic licks are exactly what keeps you coming back for more. Their new album Eyelid Movies is poised to drop sometime within the remaining year, but between you and I, I have heard it and it is amazing. Do some searching and you can find it. Peep it. EnjoY!

Phantogram – Mouth Full of Diamonds

Phantogram – When I’m Small

Discover Discovery

When the keyboard player of Vampire Weekend and lead singer of Ra Ra Riot get together you know that shit is going down. Both Rostam Batmanglij of Vamp and Wes Miles of Ra Ra Riot have been working hard on a side project called Discovery that encompasses each of their unique musical styles by blending electronic synths, vocal distortions, and electro beats into one musical orgy that is unlike any other. Discovery can be compared to the likes of Hot Chip and Cut Copy. Discovery is set to release their highly anticipated album titled LP July, 7th in the US. Don’t take my word for it, sit back, listen and be amazed.
