Lightning Dust

Be sure to check out Lightning Dust's album Fantasy, which is drenched in synthpop. A pleasant, and also somewhat unexpected surprise.

Keep Shelly in Athens

"Recollection" is the new dreamy single from Keep Shelly in Athens. Their LP At Home is out September 17th via one of my personal favorites, Cascine.

Austra

Chromatics

My favorite track from Kill for Love gets stripped off its vocal and turned into 8 minutes of instrumental awesomeness.

Blondes

Had to post this one, didn't I? Considering, well, you know.
Also, this might be what I would sound like.

Only Girl

London-based Ellen Murphy has described herself as a mix between Mariah Carey and Cocteau Twins. Energetic yet ethereal, in other words. It probably doesn't get more fabulous than that. This is her debut-single "End of Time."

Diana

MS MR

I Break Horses

"Denial" is the new single from Swedish duo I Break Horses!

Blondes

Friday, and I suggest you start the weekend with the full album stream of Blondes' Swisher, officially out in August.
