“Boulevard” is new from UK duo Fantastic Fantastic. The DNA of “Boulevard” is very much of the neon proto-digital 1980’s with a bit of yacht rock spun into it. “Boulevard” gets particularly interesting is in its variable palette tunefulness where tinges of 60’s pop, post punk, etc can be heard in its melodic unpredictability and tinges of darkness and nihilism. Stream the B3 Premiere of Fantastic Fantastic’s “Boulevard” below.

We’re very pleased to premiere this beautiful new bit of acoustic pop from duo Meadowlark. Previewed from Meadowlark’s upcoming Ant West-produced (Oh Wonder) “Dual” EP for Believe Recordings, “Fire” succeeds adeptly in a similar space of fidelity to Oh Wonder and is comparable to in level and quality of writing. We love “Fire” and are quite excited for “Dual”‘s March 30th release. Stream the B3 Premiere of “Fire” from Meadowlark below.

We’re into the sleek new bit of avant pop from Australian duo Twin Caverns titled “Pyramid”. The track features a spacious arrangement replete with an eerie and slightly at times dissonant guitar figure juxtaposed to the quieting vocal of singer Louise Miller.

Okay Kaya is a signing to XL’s Hot Charity imprint. The Norwegian-born artist’s new song “Damn, Gravity” is majestic in its minimalist lo-fi frame and very very effective as a debut.
