TRACK OF THE DAY: “Passengers” by The Ugly Club

If “Passengers” is any indication of what’s to come from THE UGLY CLUB, then we cannot wait to see what 2015 brings us and from this tweet, the band is heading back into the studio! Whoa! We’re in the studio recording our next single in one week! http://t.co/1NJlS8ESJc — The Ugly Club (@theuglyclub) January 2, 2015 Having been together for nearly 5 years, THE UGLY CLUB‘s “Passengers” … Continue reading TRACK OF THE DAY: “Passengers” by The Ugly Club

Track of the Day: “Home” by Jack Savoretti

There is something so extremely satisfying about the vocals of JACK SAVORETTI. I don’t think he could sing band if he tried and I don’t think he could write a bad song either. As I have said before, he is quickly becoming one of my favorite artists to listen to and as he continues to release new songs from his forth coming album WRITTEN IN SCARS … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Home” by Jack Savoretti

Track of the Day: “4UROR4” by N0RTHRN.LGHT5

MATTHEW KAMMERER (aka MKAIO) has a new side project called N0RTHRN.LGHT5 that is “heavier, fuzzier, harder mix of Trap, Electronica and House”. From Matthew, “This side project began when my PC crashed and I lost all my work on my next Mkaio record. Sending it in to be serviced and attempt to recover my data, I had a couple months in which I just could not … Continue reading Track of the Day: “4UROR4” by N0RTHRN.LGHT5

Track of the Day: “I’ll Be Home(less) for Christmas” by 8 Bit Love

Those fanciful fun fellows from 8 BIT LOVE have given us a non traditional Christmas song (the best kind I say) with “I’ll Be Home(less) for Christmas”. 8 BIT LOVE‘s  quasi-Christmas carol was inspired in December 2012 when frontman, Vito, and housemates received an eviction notice in the mail. “It’s a tale of shock, anger, despair and the concerns of the bonds between housemates when bond is … Continue reading Track of the Day: “I’ll Be Home(less) for Christmas” by 8 Bit Love

Track of the Day: “Legendary Lovers” by 26

I am a bit biased, but 26‘s cover of KATY PERRY‘s “Legendary Lovers” is absolutely wonderful. Even if I am biased, I prefer the cover by 26 over the original. The song sounds meaningful and full of emotion their way and while I listen to Katy’s version, I feel as if it’s a series of bad puns sung by 16 year old. That’s just my opinion. … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Legendary Lovers” by 26

Track of the Day: “Chess” by Petite Noir

We stumbled onto PETITE NOIR through DREW FELLOWS of 26/SAINT HUGHS and boy are glad we tweeted about PETITE NOIR. PETITE NOIR is the brainchild of South African native YANNICK ILLUNGA. Yannick is a singer, producer, jack of all instruments genius! “Chess” is a brilliant mix of that indie pop vibe and soulful voice and we look forward to more of PETITE NOIR. PETITE NOIR: Facebook | Twitter [soundcloud … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Chess” by Petite Noir

Track of the Day: “Coyote Love” by Grace Askew

When I started listening to GRACE ASKEW, I didn’t know she was a contestant on Season 4 of THE VOICE. I discovered her on my local NPR station and immediately bought everything she had available. Her voice is whiskey on the rocks with a splash of pain. It’s smoldering and sultry and as always her music is beautiful, heartbreaking, and emotional. “Coyote Love” by Grace … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Coyote Love” by Grace Askew

Track of the Day: “Halloumi” by Wayfarer

Melbourne beatmaker WAYFARER has released a brand spanking new single from his BEAT TAPE 02 EP and it’s downright fun, flirty, and sassy! While listening to it, I am instantly thrown back in time and watching my friends play Mario Cart. I believe there might even be a “one up” leaning sample in it! BEAT TAPE 02, released today and was mastered by Andrei Eremin (Chet Faker, Oscar Key Sung, … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Halloumi” by Wayfarer

Track of the Day: “Sweat” by RY X

If you haven’t heard of RY X (or his other project THE ACID) do yourself a favor and stop what you’re doing (even reading this post) and listen below. I have fallen in awe of the emotion that can be heard in RY X‘s voice. Listen and watch his brand single/video “Sweat” below. “Sweat” can be purchased on iTunes RY X: Facebook | Twitter | Website … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Sweat” by RY X

Track of the Day: “Fire” by Wulf

Check out WULF from London and their single “Fire” from their forthcoming (February 2015) EP LAIRS. You can pre-order the EP now and buy “Fire” now if you choose to do so and we recommend that you do. “Fire” is such a great song that showcases the beauty of a piano not as a delicate instrument but one of strength and it’s done absolutely brilliantly. … Continue reading Track of the Day: “Fire” by Wulf
