You'd be late too, if you got as many new releases as we got today. We thought we had a wheelbarrow full by Wednesday of this week, but then today's album releases from NIIGHTS, Piroshka, Star Horse, Strawberry Licor, Youngest of Elders , SPC ECO and Cellar Doors drove the programming department into overdrive. New sounds and new discoveries abound, and we've got them all for you: Lazy Pilgrims (pictured […]
Still recovering from last weekend's epic Seagaze festival, but we've spent most of the week combing through all the impressive new submissions for New Tracks Weekend, and we're packed. Obviously we're pushing the new single from Ride, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. We're deep into the new albums from Omega Vague, Todavía, Малыш Камю (Malish Kamu), Subsonic Eye and Afor Gashum, plus the new singles from the Cult of […]
Epic. It's a huge weekend for us, as we pack in a wealth of music for the weekend. Some brand new, some that we were blissfully ignorant of until this week. For instance, Electro Group. They've been churning out compelling music off and on for nearly two decades, and we only heard about them following this new release? That's our failing. Sacramento's Electro Group may have their influences clearly stamped, […]
You think you got nothing shiny and new for New Tracks Weekend, then, BOOM. Everything at once. Brand-spanking new singles from Sheer, Kindling and Bleak House headline the weekend. All three bands have a sterling reputation for quality output in these studios, and deserve all the kudos they get. But that's not all! We go long with the new album from Tape Waves, always sparkling: fall in love with Here […]
NEW TRACKS WEEKEND. We're ready. We're premiering the first two singles from Wray's spectacular Hypatia LP, due in January. We'll be pushing them for two months, so get used to the awesome. We're also catching up with The Dagger Complex. New to us, and terribly embarrassed to have missed this. Making up for it now. Plus new music from South Carolina's exquisitely textured Lightness, worth your attention. New earworms from […]
If you've followed us at all over the past year, you know we're pretty keen on Sheer, a group of upstarts making a beautiful ruckus from Simi Valley to L.A. One of their several singles, "Skin", even charted in last year's "Best Of" tracks list. But it's a new year, it's a new day, it's a new life (or something to that effect), Sheer is readying the release of their […]
So much new music to throw at you. Unsurprisingly, we're all over the new singles from A Shoreline Dream and SHEER. But we're also excited to share more new sounds from Wildhoney (released today!), Beach House, Youth Pool, the return of The Julia Sound, whatfunlifewas, Ummagma, Swiimers, Seasurfer, Catholic Easter Colors, The Poetry Book, DIIV, Tender Surgeon, dot Vom, Winter, Oak Coma, Waitress, as well as choice cuts from the […]

Brand new music from staff favorites Sheer, plus the new Candy Claws' side project Sound of Ceres drops a debut track. Pre-release joy from Gazar Strips.
