The Bottletop Band are a U.K.-Brazil charity act comprised of some serious heavy hitters of British music, members of Arctic Monkeys and Babyshambles, Gruff Rhys from Super Furry Animals. New track “One in a Million” features a sultry laid back vocal from our girl Eliza Doolittle. Eliza’s syrupy stylings command a dub-influenced heavily syncopated track.

“Euthanizing a Dream” is the latest heater from San Jose artist NiT GriT. The track is very very melodic and will likely have heads of even the filthiest of dubstep vibing along. Into it.

MeLo goes in on Quadron’s excellent “Average Fruit” from ’09. Adding a kinetic bassline, and a lights down 3AM feel to the instrumentation, the track plays like the ride home, the punctuation on a good evening well shared. p.s. Check the Dr. Woo-directed vid too. Too dope.

“Shuffle” is the lead single from the band’s upcoming third LP A Different Kind of Fix. It’s definitely a different sound for the band, a progression of sorts. But the pop sensibilities of BBC are undeniable and this new record is phenomenal. “Shuffle” is totally a major hit in the UK. Mark it down.

The latest from Washed Out’s Within and Without, “A Dedication” sways and drifts, propelled forward in the most unhurried of ways, crawling to the pulse of a simple piano figure. Check it below.

New old Alicia. “Typewriter” finds Mrs. Beatz carefully crooning over a deep 90’s backbeat. The track was recorded as part of the Songs in A Minor sessions and was left off that seminal LP. A few listens in, I think we’re feeling this early aughts Mariah-esque jam. How are y’all feeling about it? p.s. Listen for the choral interlude on “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” toward the end of track, its dope as hell.
