“Edge of Extremes,” immediately sets the tone for Gold on Gold, the band’s debut release, with its slinky bass line, high/low vocal harmony, punchy drumbeat, and unabashed love for nostalgic, danceable pop. |

The West Coast’s own Giraffage made his full-length debut this fall, and that’s just the beginning of a slew of good news from the up-and-coming producer today. Slowly,” featuring vocals from New York-based producer Matosic, is a dreamy and intricate synth-pop odyssey that’s virtually impossible not to tap a toe to, luring you in with its buoyant hooks before revealing its more compelling and complex depths. |

Sincerity can be difficult to fake and impossible to authenticate. Nicholas Krgovich, a Canadian indie veteran who makes crafted 60s pop, seems genuine enough, but there’s something of the hotel lobby’s dead air in his music, despite the son-of-the-soil lyrics. |

Porches, the music project Aaron Maine started in 2010, began as a muddy mix of DIY rock and folk. His striking new song, “Country,” works with a more limited palette to create his signature mood: melancholy cut with verve. |

We don’t know about you, but we simply cannot get enough of SZA’s Ctrl from earlier this year. One of best albums of 2017 it captures feelings about contemporary relationships that are hard to put in words. |

The sequence of “Slumlord” into “Slumlord’s Re-lease” and “Techno Clique” proves to be Night School’s centerpiece and the most concrete realization yet of Neon Indian as pure electronic music. |

Peaking Lights' fifth album, titled The Fifth State Of Consciousness, was produced in their Dreamfuzz studio over two years. It's both a departure from the new and a return to the old with a whole new twist on the psychedelic dub-pop they've become known for. Sonically the album shifts through many states from beginning to end, resonating deep, like a drive through foreign landscapes where you're glued to the window, as everything slowly changes around you. |
