Sharon Van Etten Covers HTRK

In December, Australian alt-rock duo HTRK are set to release "String of Hearts (Songs of HTRK)," a collection of remixes and cover versions of their songs.  The record will feature works from Liars, LEYA, Stephen O'Malley, and more.  Check out Sharon Van Etten's slick cover of "Poison" below and pre-order the album here from ghostly International.

HTRK

Australian indie band HTRK just dropped a woozy new single this morning with "Swimming Pool."  The track feels like coming out of a haze, those few seconds upon waking when the dream still feels real.  Check it out below and download it here from Ghostly International, or join their fan club and get the the "Swimming Pool /  Puddle on My Pillow" 7".

Julie Byrne

New York artist Julie Byrne is back this summer with a new album of dreamy, often synth-laden folk music.  Listen to the sublime "Summer Glass" below and pre-order the upcoming "The Greater Wings" LP here from Ghostly International.

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith & Emile Mosseri

Experimental electronic artist and synthesizer enthusiast Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith has teamed with composer Emile Mosseri for a new collaborative album called "I Could Be Your Dog / I Could Be Your Moon."  Dreamy soundscapes abound.  Check out "Green to You" below and pre-order the record here from Ghostly International.

Launder

LA dreampop artist Launder has been kicking around for a couple of years, releasing a few singles, demos, and and EP, and now this summer we're getting a proper full-length debut.  Check out the very '90s alt-rock sounding new tune "Unwound" below and pre-order the "Happening" LP here from Ghostly International.

Com Truise

Synthy electronic artist Com Truise is set to release a new collection of odds and ends and non-album tracks spanning the last few years in December.  "In Decay, Too" follows up 2014's "In Decay" collection, kind of like the cap to an era.  Listen to the pulsing, neon flow of "False Ascendancy" below and pre-order the record here from Ghostly International.

Mary Lattimore

LA artist and harpist Mary Lattimore released her new album, the Neil Halstead produced "Silver Ladders," today, and it's the gentle and soothing aural balm we probably all need right now.  Listen to the album opening "Pine Trees" below and get the record here from Ghostly International.

Tobacco with Trent Reznor

Lo-fi and twisted electronic artist and producer (and Black Moth Super Rainbow member) Tom Fec releases his solo jams as Tobacco, and we have a new album, "Hot Wet & Sassy," heading our way in October.  Our latest taste is the Trent Reznor assisted "Babysitter."  Reznor's vocals are blurred and distorted together with Fec's to create a veritable ghost in the machine, and are almost unrecognizable.  Check the song out below and pre-order the album here from Ghostly International.

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith

Here's a new one from experimental electronic and new age artist Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith to meditate to, or do yoga to, or just sit and absorb the sounds to.  Listen to "Expanding Electricity" below and pre-order the upcoming "The Mosaic of Transformation" LP here from Ghostly International.

Launder

Here's a new dreamy pop tune from LA artist Launder.  Listen to "Half-Life" below and get it here via Ghostly International.

Com Truise

It looks like we're getting a new record from electronic producer Com Truise in May, another slab of dancey synth wave for the masses.  Listen to "Existence Schematic" below and pre-order the "Persuasion System" LP here from Ghostly International.

Com Truise

It' been a few years since we last got any kind of proper new release from LA producer Com Truise, but his bouncy, 80's pop aping, cinematic synth arrangements are always welcome around these parts.  New album "Iteration" is due in June on Ghostly International.  Listen to first single "Memory" below.

Tobacco - Gods in Heat

We're getting some new music from Black Moth Super Rainbow main man Tobacco later this summer, and first taste "Gods in Heat" is a twitchy, experimental little number, mixing glitchy electro beats with crackly garage rock stomp, all in a bubbling, fuming psychedelic stew.  It's nice.  Listen below and pre-order the "Sweatbox Dynasty" LP from Ghostly.

Com Truise

Here's a new spacey, retro jam from producer Com Truise (who it seems like it's been a while since we last heard from).  "Diffraction" comes from the new "Silicon Tare" EP due in April on Ghostly.  Listen below.

Com Truise remixes Tycho

I am a fan of both the blissed out electronic soundscapes of Tycho and the throwback, inside-the-computer analog vibes of Com Truise, so the two coming together (even in remix form) is kind of a no brainer for me.  Listen to Com Truise's remix of "Awake," from Tycho's latest album of the same name, which you can get from Ghostly International.
