Nova Delai “Should I”

Should I? You should.

For fans of upbeat girl indie music that has elements of hip hop and is generally awesome. Have to shout out John-Alexis for a cool production.

Roney Boys- Lazy Song (cover) This pretty much speaks for itself. I know this video has been blown up already but it’s to good not to share. Bruno Mars apparently has showed this a lot of love. Speechless.

Atlas Genius- Trojans

Great song from Australian Band of brothers, Atlas Genius. Reminds me of The Kooks in a good way. Trojans is simple laid back pop (not really indie) song that doesn’t feel forced. Easy to listen to and very enjoyable.

Urban Cone- Photograph

Indie Synth Pop/Rock at its finest. Photograph is a fun song that kind of feel like Phoenix went on a date with Temper Trap. Loving the bouncing feel of track laced with interesting rhythmic synths. Not that surprising that more great music is born out of Stockholm. Looking forward to hearing more from these guys.

Kam Royal -Dude

It’s not like the world needs more ~~White~~ Frat Rap but Kam Royal is pretty nice. I usually love to hate on guys that rap and are similar to the situation but there is a little more here. He’s got some swagg and the video is cool. Nothing groundbreaking but you definitely don’t suck Kam. Nice Job.

Little Dragon- Ritual Union

Really falling in love with this electro pop band from Sweden. Little Dragon is ahead of the curve combining a soulful vocal over electro beats, real instruments an the occasional heavy hitting hip hop drum feel. This song is moody yet fun. A little more pop then Air but not totally Adele. Once again the next level sound comes from Sweden. Definitely cool.

Polock “Fireworks”

Polock, from Valencia, have a really cool sound happening. They have definitely pulled a few tricks out of the Phoenix playbook but not enough to really care. This song is very easy to enjoy. Good stuff. It’s almost like bands these days are trying to make songs that are perfect for apple commercials.

Intuition_ Best Fool

I really like this guys flow. Not your normal white rapper. I actually couldn’t turn this video off. He is straight killing it. Enjoy.

STS- In for the Kill

STS, Atlanta, is a true star. His Outkast like flow meets a hint of Weezy to create a unique style. A style with mass appeal. It is almost to easy to see STS being a household name. In For The Kill as a song feels great from beginning to end. Nothing forced, just real rhymes over a tight beat. Not a smash hit but a great track. You will be hearing more from this dude.

Lana Del Rey -Video Games

Sorry to post something so dark on Friday but Lana Del Rey sucked me in with her vocal sound so quickly, it was to hard to resist. Video games showcases Del Rey’s haunting vocals and her ability to craft actual heartfelt lyrics.(what a thought?) Simply a beautiful song. Oh and those Lips are pretty crazy. She looks great too. Check out her other songs she has posted. Totally worth your time.

Lupe Fiasco Medley -

Don’t know much about these guys or if they are even an official group but thought this youtube performance was better than average. The dude rapping seems pretty strong. His rhymes are nice and original but the flow is way to Lupe. Once this guy finds his own style (maybe he has it and I just can’t find it) he is going to be really nice.

The Airplane Boys-Gold Ribbons

Very unique sound from Ontario based Hip Hop/Pop/Dance duo The Airplane Boys. It kind of feels like The Black Eyed Peas, Daft Punk and Drake had some babies and this song was the result. The “boys” are pretty heavy on the low vocal Auto-Tune sound, maybe this is a Canada thing, (drake), but it doesn’t bother me all that much. Just seems to sound futuristic the way they are using it. The track feels great. Its no “Lets get retarded in here” but hey what really is. Perfect for the club.

Arkells-Whistleblower

Canadian rock band Arkells, formed in 2006 and has been plugging away ever since. The sound on their new single, whistleblower feels like it could fill a stadium. Very reminiscent of Kings of Leon. The band engineers, mixes, produces, writes and designs all of their own artwork (and none of it sucks). Cool song.

Conrizzle- Rap Charades

Kind of Feeling this track. Nothing we haven’t heard before but dude is definitely talented. Rap Charades is one of the leading tracks from Conrizzle’s new album Cran Grape and White Girls. Funny Album name, I won’t lie it was one of the reasons I listened. I also posted a little freestyle he is spitting over The Dr. Carter beat from a few years ago. Pretty cool. Check it.

Jayme Dee- Slow Dancing in a Burning Room (John Mayer cover)

Great Version of Slow Dancing in Burning Room. Jayme Dee makes singing this song look effortless. That is why it is probably so enjoyable to watch her. Although it looks like she is reading the lyrics, every word has a certain gracefulness to it. John Mayer would be proud and probably want to hit it. Seriously.

Yacht- Dystopia (the earth is on fire)

This disco, pop, hipster, dance anthem will surely be a jam the DJs spin all summer long. Yacht, from Portland Oregon, formed in 2002 and since has shared the stage with some major acts including LCD sound system, Phoenix, Vampire Weekend and The yeah yeah yeahs. I watched a video of theses guys performing at Coachella that sold me on this song and band in under 20 seconds. Check it below. Straight Fire. Literally.

CSS- Hits Me Like a Rock

Brazilian band CSS, ”Hits Me Like a Rock”, is catchy feel good summer jam. It is really easy to listen to and enjoy throughout the entire track. The female vocal reminds me of the Juno soundtrack at some points and then I am quickly reminded of Ace of Base as the song progresses. Yeah, I said it. Vocals are sung really effortlessly but sweet sounding. The band has been around since 2003 and is catching major international buzz at this point. I don’t see why this song couldn’t catch a similar wave to that “I just came to Hello” song nobody can see to get away from. Good Stuff.
