Sen Morimoto – "Jupiter"
Chicago polymath Sen Morimoto is releasing his new self-titled album in a couple weeks. We’ve heard “Woof,” “Deep Down,” and “The Things I Thought About You Started To Rhyme,” and today we’re getting one last single, “Jupiter,” which starts off light and dreamy and becomes heavier and even dreamier as it goes on. “Jupiter is […]
IAN SWEET – "Power"
Over the last several months, Jilian Medford’s IAN SWEET project has released a couple new songs. The first, back in May, was “Sword,” which was then followed in August by “Dumb Driver.” The latter accompanied news that IAN SWEET had signed to Polyvinyl, and presumably a full-length project would be on the horizon sooner than […]

Bicep – “Apricots”
Bicep is the London-based duo of Matt McBriar and Andy Ferguson, childhood friends from Belfast who make modern, immaculately produced electronic music inspired by classic house and techno. They got their start running FeelMyBicep, a blog highlighting Italo, house, and disco deep cuts. That turned into DJ sets, a record label, and a club night. […]
Osees – “Weird And Wasted Connection”
Osees are on a hot streak right now. But then again, when are they not?

And so, […]
