TDCC// SLEEP ALONE


Yesterday, Two Door Cinema Club kindly offered fans a chance (24 hours) to download their new single 'Sleep Alone' off their upcoming album 'Beacon'. Having not heard material from the band for some time, this was the perfect way to build the anticipation and give a taste of what is to come from the new project. This highly anticipated album is their second studio album following 'Tourist History' released early 2010 and is due to be released on the 3rd September this year.
You can pre-order the album here and check out the single in case you missed it, below.

VISUAL: LANA DEL REY//NATIONAL ANTHEM


So this is even more appealing, as Lana Del Rey gives us a video for her track 'National Anthem' featuring, yes, ASAP Rocky. Theres something i love about this vintage (could say instagram-esque) style video. The short film, portrays the lives of JFK (ASAP) and his wife (Lana).

M83 // MIDNIGHT CITY

Anthony Gonzalez has done it again, more well known as M83, he released the band's highly anticipated sixth studio album 'Hurry Up We're Dreaming' on the 18th October last year which included the track 'Midnight City' which was released earlier, and the first track to be released off the album. With the album having hit 21000 sales within its first week and 'Midnight City' having been featured globally through the media recently, maybe M83 are finally getting the recognition they deserve. 'Hurry Up We're Dreaming' is available to buy through all good music stores and check out their fifth album 'Saturdays = Youth' which is also definitely well worth a listen.

ACOUSTIC: KEATON HENSON


Keaton Henson - You Don't Know How Lucky You Are by Keaton Henson

Organic, acoustic sounds combined with beautiful lyrics, Keaton Henson's music is simply refreshing. Take a minute to appreciate this music.

"The fact that people can hear them is terrifying. The fact that the people they’re about might hear them is mortifying. I cannot play stairway to heaven. I struggle with bar chords. My songs are unashamed self indulgence and my only defense is that i didn’t think they would ever be heard. They were recorded in my bedroom mainly, and occasionally in friendly studios, with help when needed from talented friends and family members. I started charging for illustration in order to afford studio time. And got carried away"

WASHED OUT



Ernest Greene, more well known as Washed Out is one of the most well known and influencial names in chillwave music. Taking inspiration from hip hop music, his sound is chillwave mixed with dream-pop and hypnagogic pop to create a truly unique take on this genre. With 80's pop percussion combined with synths slowed to a laid back pace with a handful of lazy riffs and hazy vocals creates the perfect chilled out sounds. Released via Mexican Summer was Washed Out's second EP 'Life of Leisure' which included the popular tracks 'Feel It All Around' & 'Hold Out' in 2009 and this year he released his debut album 'Within And Without' on July 12th via Sub Pop Records. The album is available to buy at most music stores and 'Life Of Leisure' can be downloaded via Mediafire here

APORIA: IN THESE §TREETS


M∆DE IN HEIGHTS. Following 'Winter Pigeons' released in December of last year, comes the 11 track album 'APORIA: IN THESE §TREETS' released this month. Carrying on from Winter Pigeons they keep their signature organic sounding beats and trip hop/chillstep vibe yet this new album seems to be a lot lighter including five instrumental tracks and some more uptempo beats in contrast to quite a lot of dark undertones and heavier drums scattered throughout the previous album. Another refreshing album to listen to and a truly unique sound.
Download the albums from their bandcamp page here.

ALLXLEGENDS MIXTAPE


"I wish everyone would shut the fuck up, close their eyes, and dance. Not because they're drunk. Not because they're being filmed. And not because they wanna get laid tonight. Dance because it feels good. Dance because it feels right. And dance because tomorrow we'll never dance again."

"Sitting by the window in a cafe small and sweet, deeply hidden in the heart of a beautiful town that could easily be mistaken for Shambala, I hold my brown ceramic mug with both hands and sip slowly of its contents, a tea brewed from the root barks of the Amazon and calmly gaze into God's face. Then, I begin to lose my mind."
