The gorgeous (and we stress gorgeous) “Wounded Melody” by new UK electronic act Face+Heel (in a very 2010’s turn, the duo met on Soundcloud) is one of the best tracks of the month and maybe the year. On “Wounded Melody”, a wall of just really beautiful sonics supports a rhythm track of really excellent kick/snare cut-ups, that and the vocal sampling which is 100% not of this world. Listen.

London duo Maribou State refashion Submotion Orchestra’s “Blindspot” track into a stunning multi-genre dinner & dessert spread. At times quiet, at times House, at times the most modern in UK bass music, the sheer mix & variety of sounds traversed across the track’s six minute duration is really extraordinary. Do not miss. Thx LFTF

Hems new “Last Words” EP is the shit. The EP features five new tracks and fresh new remixes from Shlohmo, Baauer & more. Our favourite track from the EP is the Earth-from-30,000-feet-above panoply of “The Happy Mask Shop”. Cop dat.

Skrillex collaborator Pennybirdrabbit has just released her debut solo EP treehouse. The EP’s title track showcases the young songbird’s knack for pensive electonic atmosphere and beautiful heartspinning (and sort Bjorkesque) vocals.

Producer Noah Hyde puts on for his city remixing fellow Boisean?(Boiseite? Boisese?) Youth Lagoon’s great “Daydream”. Hyde selects for a deep subtle dance refashioning of the track that is really outstanding. Hat tip to our friends at Golden Scissors for the find.

Buffalo, NY DJ Dstar’s profile has certainly been rising in the electronic scene over the last year. Here, with an assist from Ann Arbor, MI DJ Benzi (rust belt connect!) Dstar takes that next step with a strong remix of The Cataracs’ Kaskade-sampling “All You” from earlier this year.

Inspired by a trip to the artic ghost town of Piramida, just a 1000km from the North Pole, Efterklang have a produced this rather grand first cut from their forthcoming album going by the same name. The results from sounds created with impressive findings like this, plus contributions from a number of other artists including a 60-piece girls’ choir, are somewhat impressive. The accompanying video for “Hollow Mountain” is directed by Oodls and is equally so… enjoy.
Piramida will be out on 4AD & Rumraket on September 24th and can be pre-ordered here. By Nathan Hetherington
