Dallas rapper Jay Fresh continues to step his game up. On “Amazing”, JF hops on a vibed out Pretty Lights beat and smashes it. Taking just the right pace of flow and rhythm of diction and letting the instrumentals breathe in/out themselves, Jay does just the right amount of work on top the track. Great.

Building on the momentum of blogoverse smashes like “Dancing With The DJ” and “Brightside”, The Knocks boys ready their latest “Magic”. The midtempo number’s got enough of that signature Knocks shuck and jive, that’ll have those knees knockin’ and toes tappin’ even to 118 BPM. p.s. You may recognize the vocals of British dance singer Gary Go from Benny Benassi’s “Cinema”.

Everything this guy puts out just absolutely kills it (If you’re not hip, you need to familiarize yourself ASAP). The reggae-styled “When Will They Learn” is certainly no different. LB’s track record is pretty much flawless but “When Will They Learn” might be our favorite song of his yet.

The recently monikered Foxes is the latest project courtesy of Neon Gold sure to be set on #repeat. Toquote: “This 22-year old superstar in waiting writes leftfield pop anthems with the kind of infectious ambition that has desk-strapped A&Rs foaming at the checkbook.” Get familiar below:

Red Kites are a four piece rock band from Guildford, Surrey UK and their sharply melodic single for “Montreal” is really really good. Trust us. Don’t sleep on this one.

An ambitous new worldly jam from a bloke that you know studies electronic music at another level. “Ergo” can wear lots of hats but it still maintains all the vital elements of it’s own identity. A new producer to be on the look for.

So Cults are prepping this hip hop mixtape (cause they’re big hip hop stans and everything) and the first sample they’ve released on their public is this new mix for “Bad Things” featuring Gary, IN (shout to Boder) rapper Freddie “Gangsta” Gibbs. You can usually can count on Gibbs to pick good features and “Bad Things” does play down pretty solid. Give it a spin below.

Now here’s a cool coffee club banger from blogosphere fav Jhameel. “White Lie” has a great chorus and extended bridge which almost becomes a hidden song-within-a-song. A true polyglot (speaks Arabic, Spanish, Russian and Korean), Jhameel’s music has a cosmopolitan flair which is loved among the echo boomers. This is the sort of song I would play for a jaded hip-hop or indie rock junkie to get them to venture away from their comfort zone and into the other genre’s territory. With so many flashes in the pan, Jhameel has quietly become a familiar face. Get it get it get it.

Birmingham natives, Troumaca have just released their ep The Gems. Sanctify has a nice blend of tropical and soul. The first verse should hook you right into the song.

The awesome “Nothing is the News” is new from Damien Jurado’s upcoming Maraqopa LP. Produced by Richard Swift, the record promises to be a sprawling, melodic expanse of the best sort of desert-infused blues. Do not miss.
