Lykke Li – Gunshot
https://soundcloud.com/lykkeli/gunshot Lykke Li’s much anticipate new album, I Never Learn, came out yesterday. It is super dramatic, dreamy, and beautiful. On first listen, this song is the star. It has a distinct ’80’s Madonna feel, maybe even with a little influence from The The. Really really great.
Jennifer Hudson – Walk It Out (Featuring Timbaland)
Timbaland has a magic touch, especially working with pop-soul artists like Justin Timberlake and Jennifer Hudson. Maybe this is a guilty pleasure song, but it’s a pleasure, and that’s what matters.
Little Dragon – Let It Go
I’ve been in a (new music) rut recently, for whatever reason, but in the last day I’ve realized that three of my favorite artists have recently put out music. I’ve been hitting repeat a lot. First, new from Little Dragon. Dreamy electro-pop topped with the beautiful, almost 90’s R&B voice of Yukimi Nagano.
Lana Del Rey – West Coast
I’m posting this song partly ’cause I genuinely like it and am as mesmerized by Lana’s voice as most people, and partly ’cause I don’t want to miss out on posting this song the day it debuts, even if thousands of others already have. Super cool.
Flume – Change (Featuring How To Dress Well)
Play this one right after the last one for maximum R&B dance party fun times. Flume’s ability to cross genres is seriously impressive.
Bastille – No Angels (Featuring Ella)
I missed TLC’s Scrubs the first time around. I almost missed this version. Got it. So worth it. So good.
De Lux – Better At Making Time
Disco funk beat, catchy synth and rock vocals on top, layers and layers of awesome. This really reminds my of my favorite David Byrne songs.
