Hypnotic and winding, Rollercoasterwater's "Avey Tare Said" holds clear roots against an open production in a perfectly psychedelic twisting of melodies and staggered beats.
Dreamy and atmospheric, the single clings to a singularly hopeful theme while drifting away in airy synths and steady rhythms with a backstory as sweet and honest as the track itself, so check out the single and head to all those sites below for more from Los Angeles duo Rollercoasterwater.
The distinctly young vibe of Ex Norwegian's "On The Sidelines" plays against a knowledgable instrumentation and dense, aware lyrics in an addictive mix that says so much in such a short time without losing focus on a just messy enough to have you leaning in production.
A single and video made for the short attention span will have you bobbing your head and hitting replay, so check out the video below, head to those sites now, and catch up with lead singer Roger Houdaille in his interview with us here.
Nick Dunston's intriguingly smooth mix of jazz, film, and chamber plays out with a dreamy sensibility and a subtle unpredictability worth nothing in the aptly named "Theatrics".
Hypnotic strings, grounded reeds, and a light, fun melody hold together over a rich texture of ever evolving dynamics in a lush composition that's as interesting as it is fresh, so be sure to check out the piece below and head to the sites for more from Nick Dunston.
Juke Jaxon's "Memory Man" sounds impossibly familiar, like a strange melting pot of everything from Arctic Monkeys to The Black Keys and Franz Ferdinand to The Raconteurs but still remarkably fresh with a drag you in and get you hooked chorus, the perfectly light touch of brass and dreamy vocal hooks, and an all around beautiful production.
A relaxed beat, soulful vocals, and overall soothingly minimal sound has us addicted and, when it comes down to it, "Memory Man" is one of our favorite tracks of 2016 and we can't wait to hear what the Bristol two piece does next.
