The Bug + Dis Fig

UK producer and electronic musician The Bug just launched the "LADYBUG" singles series on his PRESSURE imprint label, and is starting the whole thing off with a trippy and transcendent collaborative track with Belgian electronic artist Dis Fig.  Check out "Vanishing" below and download it, along with four remixes, here.


Whirr

Shoegaze band Whirr and Luster are releasing a split 12" for our listening pleasure in September.  Check out one of the swirly, dreamy contributions from the former below with "Spiral Again" and pre-order the record here.


Daily Jam - Porto Venere

Blistering heat today in Central Texas, so now i'm cooling down with some dreamy, melancholy electronic pop from French group Niro.  Listen to "Porto Venere" below, our Daily Jam.

Dinosaur Jr.

I didn't realize we were getting new music from Dinosaur Jr. this year.  Finally some good news.  Listen to "Several Got Away" below and pre-order the "There Near" LP here from Jagjaguwar.


Daily Jam - Ricochet

I have watched more soccer in the last three weeks than i have in my entire life before that.  And i just finished watching the USMNT look like total dogshit for 90+ minutes.  Trump really does turn everything he touches into shit, like some sort of turd-man Midas.  Anyhoo, after a sports debacle, i like to soothe myself with some music, like the gentle, jazzy, ambient, neo-classical sounds of French trio Human.  Listen to "Ricochet" from the group's sole 1985 long player, our Daily Jam.

Winter

At the end of June, the now New York based indie pop artist Winter released "Hollow (Mixtape Version)," a '90s alt-rock throwback that bobs and crunches along like something blaring from 1995 Honda Passport tape deck.  Check it out below and download it here from Winspear.


Holy Motors

October brings us new music from Estonian alt-rock band Holy Motors.  Check out the dreamy new track "Tough Crush" and pre-order the group's forthcoming album "Heaven's Night" here from Wharf Cat Records.


Daughter of the Vine

Cambridge, Massachusetts band Daughter of the Vine make a dusty kind of psychedelic rock, with elements of folk, Americana, shoegaze, and staring westward into pink and orange skies of the setting sun.  Coincidentally, their new album is called "Holy Is the Sun."  Check out the alt-country psych vibes of the title track below and get the LP here from the band.


SONS OF ZÖKU

Australian psych rock group SONS OF ZÖKU dropped a great new track a few days ago, with the trip-hop-tinged "In You."  It's awesome.  Take a listen below and download it here from the band.


Daily Jam - Pity the Child

Here's some very cool, jazz-infused psych, blues, and soul for your Sunday from The Albert.  Dig on "Pity the Child" below, our Daily Jam.
