Panic Island's harsh and heavy "Temples" screams punk rock from its core and demands to be played at full volume. The band's unforgiving single is stuffed with reckless, emotional riffs, devoted beats, and a chorus that's just waiting for you to give in to it.
Check out the single below, head to all the sites, and look for the London rock band's debut EP, Cabin Fever, to be released May 18th.
With his refreshing spin on remixes it's always exciting to listen to one of Belarbi's new tracks, and his latest mix of Amadou & Mariam's "Sabali" breathes new life into the 'old' track with such exulted ease it's hard not to fall for.
The measured rhythm, cool beats, and light melodic hooks highlight the best of the original, pulling it front and center without losing that inherent emotion, while Belarbi's mix steadily expands to give you everything you never knew the track was missing, without drowning you in excessive synth and heavy bass.
One of few remix artists we can never get enough of because his mixes honestly do justice to the originals, Belarbi's tracks are just enjoyable to listen to, so head to the sites to hear more and check out his latest release below.
Tru Fam's "Janet Jean" is coolly entrancing with a measured restraint to its chill beats and easy vocal hooks that run through the track. Auto-tuned vocals add to the track's hypnotic atmosphere without being obnoxious while the smooth transitions leave the single balanced and fluid and all too enticing.
Check out the single from New Jersey twin duo Tru Fam, check out an interview, and look for new music to come soon.
