The XX nounces work on their 2nd album. Woo hoo!



From beginning to end, The Xx's debut self-titled album is an amazing display of post punk, indie, synth pop, and moody tunes.  I first heard about them at Coachella 2010 which is when they dropped their first album.  Very excited to hear what they're cooking up for 2012 and am hoping they tour So Cal asap!  The biggest track off of the their debut is "Crystallised", and was featured for the HBO promotions of  the hit series True Blood.  Since the band has gone on hiatus the only person to my knowledge that has been keeping busy is Jaime Xx.  Jamie who is the percussionist / Synths for the band has been putting out some pretty good production and remixes for the likes of Florence and the Machine, Radiohead, and Adele (to name his more mainstream projects) with a nice origianl twist.  He has even done an essential mix for BBC's Radio One that is definately worth a listen. Can't wait for the new album!

M83



Quality tune from M83.  I've been giving it a lot of rotation in the clubs lately.  If they're album is even half as good as "Midnight City", then we are all in for a serious treat.

From Russia with love... The Junehunters

I don't know much about this band other than they are a talented young trio based out of Moscow called Junehunters.  They are made up of 2 dudes and a skirt, all three of whom are extremely talented.  They are putting out some quality summer of love flavored music layered with analog synths and a classic rock meets bluesy guitar type vibe.  Whether you like to lace your bandana with tabs of acid and listen to 60's rock, or you moved to Silver Lake because you thought it would make you a hipster , you definitely don't want to sleep on this band.  These ruskies know how to rock!! They have 5  great songs you can check out at http://soundcloud.com/junehunters Me likey long time. Oh yes! Wouldn't be surprised to see them on a Coachella side stage in 2012. Enjoy! I did.

Here is my favorite
