Gorgeous track from duo Maribou State, who have recently signed to Ninja Tune imprint Counter Records and are set to release their debut album Portraits later this year. Expect lots of lush analogue sounding synth work, looped beats and reverb heavy vocals. It's a little bit Caribou, a little bit Four Tet. In other words: it's very good.
This week Cork duo Young Wonder have taken the wraps of their first new track in over a year, and it's... erm... a corker?! Dreamy melodies swirl around cosmic rhythms full of a weightless sense of deep space.
Love this. Also check out older track To You below, just because it is awesome.
I'm mainly only about stuff to do with Phoebe Ryan these days, so when this lovely mix of her new single Mine drop into my inbox I couldn't resist. Particularly given it has basically the cutest artwork ever.
The Jane Doze are NYC-based production and DJ duo Jen Mozenter and Claire Schlissel - check out more of their work on Soundcloud.
Tei Shi
Tei Shi has just unleashed the video for her song Bassically, as originally featured on BlackPlastic last year.
The video itself boasts an female empowering military theme and I am fairly sure I enjoyed it. Bassically will feature on forthcoming EP Verde, due for release on 14 April.
I totally love this new track from Ghost Hours, Can't Stop Moving. Ghost Hours is actually musician Ron Fountenberry, who used to front the Modular signed act the Softlightes in the late noughts. Fountenberry has taken a very different approach here - just drum machines, synths and his vocals, together with a classic sample from the James Brown produced Think (About It) by Lyn Collins (most recently heard here).
Big big fan of this: soft melody, warm synths and emotive vocals... What more could you want?
