Pistol Shrimp
Pistol Shrimp is back with the video for the strongest track yet. It’s hard to believe a video of this standard was directed by 17 year old Jake Matos.
The beautifully shot video by the 17 year old is about being young, free, having fun and doing what you love. It follows two boys and two girls on their separate dream adventures.
The track has an electro-synth backing with layered vocals sprinkled on top, and includes those dreamy hooks that Pistol Shrimp are renowned for.

New on the LA scene of big-chord indietronica is Smallpools. Evidently with a lot of production investment behind them, there is no doubt these guys are going to be very huge, very soon. Which is fine by us, as turns out they sound pretty cool.
The band released debut single ‘Dreaming’ on 16th July 2013 on RCA Records to a very welcome reception, with pop hooks and driving tinny synths, this song certainly gets you in the summer spirit. The track is available to purchase here.
The remix by synth rock band Magic Man from Rhode Island, takes the floaty synths up a notch to sing through over the original’s vocals. These guys are quickly becoming big on the remix scene, and turns out they do some great original tunes too.
Sounds like; Passion Pit, Phoenix, Matt & Kim
