Memories: These guys in the Ryan Staake (Pomp&Clout) directed music video for Nicolas Jaar and Dave Harrington’s Darkside [«A1» is taken from their Darkside EP from last year] kinda look like Jawas from SW. Haha. Great job!

Listen to «Light + Space», a first track (it’s the closing track actually) off Laurel Halo‘s forthcoming full-length Quarantine. The record is out on May 28 (UK) via Hyperdub. Woah, can’t wait to hear the whole thing.

Remember Tropical Popsicle? We posted their tune “The Age Of Attraction” last July and the song really helped forgetting the rainy summer. Now, it’s April and as I’m looking outside my window – it’s raining again. High time to listen to a hazy new Tropical Popsicle song, uploaded to their soundcloud just some minutes ago!

Since the release of his first ever single «BTSTU», which even made it into the UK charts in 2011, we didn’t hear that much (nothing actually!) from Jai Paul. But now – finally! – there’s a new Jai Paul demo track floating around the interwebz: «Jasmine». This post-modern R&B banger will be out as a single on UK’s XL Recordings later this year.
Another cut by Lower Dens from their upcoming album, Nootropics, out May 1st on Ribbon Music. We’ve already heard the mindblowing “Brains”, and the hypnotic “Propagation” is making me looking forward to the album even more.
Don’t miss them play Palace, St. Gallen or Bad Bonn Kilbi in May!
