Now Is The Time Of Emotion by E

As loud and fun as the song itself, Prince Rama's newly unveiled video for "Now Is The Time Of Emotion" off Xtreme Now is a shot of reckless youth and joyous angst.

In the duo's endearingly quirky style, the video features the sisters, skateboarders, a motocyclist, and more destroying a modern art museum with all the enthusiastic abandon that makes Prince Rama's music so impossible to ignore.

Check out the video, head to the sites, and listen to Xtreme Now, out now on Carpark Records.

Larger Than This Life by E

Cinematic in a climactic sense, Morgan Mallory's "Larger Than This Life" is impossible to pass over and harder still to forget.

Deceptively quiet, story driven verses build to a resounding anthem of a chorus with thought-provoking lyrics, prominent beats, and huge vocal hooks that'll have any romantic swooning before sliding into a riff-ruled bridge sure to have you honestly and completely hooked on a single that insists you listen again and again.

With a flawless production of balanced beats, easy vocals, eloquent lines, and a careful but moving melody, the whole track plays out so strikingly clever that it's nearly impossible to believe it's off a debut album and we can't wait to hear more.

Check out the single, look for Morgan's forthcoming album, Manifesto, to be released later this year, and catch up with the artist in his interview here.

Save Your Love by E

We've been digging everything Drawing North has been teasing from El Dorado and if you haven't already fallen for their sound, now's the time to do so, because "Save Your Love" is ready to top your Spring jams and play out your Summer plans.

An easy mix of pure pop and irrepressible energy with the band's signature articulate and romantic lyrics, you can just as easily blast "Save Your Love" on your way to the first festival of the season or lay back and soak in their undoubtedly underrated production and impressive lyrical ability. Pure riffs, a pretty but smart melody, charming verses, and an impossibly huge stadium ready chorus gives "Save Your Love" all the makings of a Summertime hit.

Seriously, the precision with which Drawing North's music is crafted - without losing its personality or authenticity - has us not so patiently awaiting the release of the Australian five-piece's forthcoming album, El Dorado. Check out the single, catch up with the band in their interview with us, and head to all those sites below for much more.

Avey Tare Said by E

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.
