Digitalism – Go Time

Digitalism

Digitalism

Hamburg duo Digitalism (aka Jens Moelle and Ismail Tüfekçi) return with their third album called ‘Mirage’, which stems from “the ecstasy” of “epic trips around the globe”.

The second single from the album, ‘Go Time’, continues the theme of the album, comfortably sitting somewhere between nostalgia and futurism.

Sameblod

Sameblod

Swedish indietronica artists are really nailing that summery Australian vibe right now. A folk/synth duo that falls into this category is Sameblod who are back with new track ‘My Fortune’. A familiar sound? That’s because Sameblod is signed to the same label as Summer Heart.

Frederick Rundqvist and Mikael Mattisson met in Stockholm by way of San Francisco, and started making music together which they describe as “hopeful-electronic-mellow-pop with a lot of different influences”.

‘My Fortune’ will be available for sale and download via Sommarhjärta Label everywhere on the 15 June.

This time in collaboration with SBTRKT and with production by Fraser T Smith (Adele, Lily Allen, Sam Smith), new single ‘Daydreamer’ transmits to your ears an upbeat and catchy pop sound with intelligent lyrics. 

The Tomek Ducki-directed video for the track is a kaleidoscopic vision of a daydreamer’s wild mind, and definitely conjures up the romance of escapism.

Lane 8 feat. Bipolar Sunshine – I Got What You Need (Every Night)

Lane 8 feat. Bipolar Sunshine

Lane 8 feat. Bipolar Sunshine

German/San Fran Lane 8 has joined forces with Manchester vocalist Bipolar Sunshine (aka Adio Marchant).

Lane 8 hasn’t given us a remix this time, but a rework of his original disco-inspired track, ‘Every Night’.

It’s hard to understand how this collab occured, as both talents are heading in separate directions, but we are not complaining. Lane 8 has developed ‘I Got What You Need (Every Night)’ into a track that is a bit more meaty than it was before. The customary house bass line remains, but the mellifluous vocals from Bipolar Sunshine step it up a notch or two.

Time for a sunset, a beach and a mojito…

Sounds like: Bipolar Sunshine, Crystal Fighers, Goldroom, Viceroy, The Foals, Metronomy

Digitalism – Wolves feat. Youngblood Hawke

Digitalism feat Youngblood Hawke

Digitalism feat Youngblood Hawke

Having hinted at a change in direction with a soundcloud-only release at the start of the year, Hamburg duo Digitalism (Jens Moelle and Ismail Tüfekçi) is finally back for our listening pleasure with ‘Wolves’; the first proper single that further underlines this new direction.

The boys spent the early part of this year in L.A., writing and producing new music, road testing new demos and trying out new ideas by going back to their roots and causing havoc amongst fans at their twice monthly East L.A. Warehouse parties.

Despite Digitalism’s European techno and EDM background, ‘Wolves’ is an upbeat and catchy track with American indie-pop vibes, courtesy of vocals from Youngblood Hawke, who focused on the classic EDM from the 70’s.

Track listing:
1. Wolves Feat. Youngblood Hawke (Radio Edit)
2. Wolves Feat. Youngblood Hawke (12” Version)
3. Wolves Feat. Youngblood Hawke (Riton Remix)
4. Wolves Feat. Youngblood Hawke (RAC Remix) – listen below
5. Wolves Feat. Youngblood Hawke (Booka Shade Remix)

The track was released on 14 July under their own Magnetism Records and a new album in 2015 is imminent.

Sounds like: RAC, Calvin Harris, Youngblood Hawke, Viceroy

Imperial Mammoth – The Last One To Leave The Party

Imperial Mammoth

Imperial Mammoth

Imperial Mammoth is a L.A.-based band formed by Leonard Jackson and Laura Jane Scott.

They claim to make the ground move and we like big claims at Indietronica.

‘The Last One To Leave The Party’ is full of softly spoken words of slight melancholy with a sexy pop punk vibe. It’s hard to believe they only have 180 followers on Soundcloud.

The impressive eleven track album, ‘Gold Confetti’, was released on 24 June 2014 via Bleed 101. Purchase it here.
