Dusk Funk

I'm a bit late on this one, but it brightens my mood every time I listen to it! This is some phenomenal funk brought to you by Bondax, from dawn until dusk. The vocals by Ayah Marar cut pretty deep and flow perfectly into the groove.

Through The Roof

A good beat and a good mood are one in the same--they're both contagious. I love this new direction that Hermitude is going towards with reggae-ish sounding vocals and heavy traplike bass. Good vibez all the way. Looking forward to hearing what other new material they come up with!

Way to be Loved

I haven't stopped listening to this track since I heard it a few weeks ago. The stellar lo-fi vibes emitted from the whispery vocals of Jane Penny speak volumes for this one and have a way of putting the listener at an unanticipated ease when combined with the light and airy instrumentals, particularly the guitar riffs. After hearing "Way to be Loved," I was of course compelled to explore previous releases by Tops, specifically from their latest album Picture You Staring. It's fascinating to me to see how musicians today pull inspiration from totally different decades to create something that we deem "modern." Check out the slow "Outside" below "Way to be Loved" to see what I mean (lots of 80s-like influences, but with modern-day indie stuff combined). I am a huge fan and would love to hear more from Tops in the future.
