“Skin” is the debut track from 22 year old Briton Luke Osborne. House-referencing but with a depth and visceral quality, “Skin” is a very impressive first track. Mr. Osborne is at work now on his debut EP, who’s release is expected later this year.

Unknown band Bad Sounds drop demo for very skilled and polished pop of “Living Alone”. With a sound seemingly ripped straight out your local Urban Outfitters (this is track is alternative radio ready right now), we’re making the easy guess that unknown Bad Sounds are about to become a lot more known.

The great Duly Noted Records (IYES, Black Honey) ready the July 22nd release of “Wonderlust” the new single from new favorites The Night VI. We’re pleased to premiere this recent acoustic session of “Wonderlust” that is an excellent showcase for the star-level vocals of singer Sophie-Rose Harper.
Commenting on “Wonderlust”, Rose-Harper talked about the track’s creative inspiration, “”Wonderlust is about waiting for true love & a tale of a perfect encounter. My fascination with American Western-style B movies inspired the song”; continuing, “Set in a downtown dive bar filled with junkies and jukeboxes I imagined a woman possessed by her drunken fantasies that have spun out of control and her eccentricity is reeking of desperation. So following in the old country tradition it’s an upbeat song with a sad and bitter core.”
Sample the B3 premiere of “Wonderlust”‘s acoustic version below.

Former NBHD drummer Bryan Sammis a/k/a Olivver impresses again on latest track release “Lucy”. The more synth/electronic-inclined song “Lucy”, rides a staccato 1-2 rhythm track and simple but infectious melodic figure in creating an effective stable of syncopated vocal hooks. Listen.

The fabulous Duly Noted Records, home to releases from IYES and The Night IV, debut their newest signing Black Honey and the band’s track for “Sleep Forever”. For the debut song, a demo, BH cast to a nostalgia-coasting sheet of wistful guitar strums and low touch rhythms pinpoint evocative and effective vocal lines. “Sleep Forever” is a very exceptional first track.

The Danish export Kill J drops new track “You Have Another Lover”. A seeping preparation of glacial far-off production and Kill J’s alien to this world ethereal vocals, “You Have Another Lover” cuts a bit different (and excellent) stylistic direction from previous more direct immediate tracks like “Bullet” and “Phoenix”.
