Single Serving: Peaking Lights – More High

June 12th, 2013

Peaking Lights have contributed a new track to the dublab’s Spring 2013 Proton Drive Fundraiser. It’s a spacey, funky groove dedicated to – what else – good vibrations in your mind. Take a listen below. Peaking Lights – More High The tune is available on a limited to 100 copies 7″ via dublab.

Single Serving: Jonathan Rado – Faces

June 11th, 2013

Jonathan Rado has already established a name for his reinvention of 60′s-70′s psychedelica as one of the primary songwriters in Foxygen. So it’ll come as no surprise that the debut single “Faces” from his solo LP treads adjacent territory a la Bob Dylan, Arlo Guthrie, et al. It’s not nearly as novel as his work with [...]

Single Serving: Bells Atlas – Incessant Noise

June 10th, 2013

Kasey and I are traveling around Japan right now, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t prepare some yummy music goodness for you while we’re away. For example, Oakland-based Bells Atlas are easily one of my absolute favorite new music discoveries. In fact, their debut EP is definitely contributing heavily to the soundtrack for our trip. [...]

Single Serving: Seatraffic – Conscious Awake

June 7th, 2013

San Francisco’s Seatraffic are already familiar to many of our readers, as a number of their recent tracks have found homes on our monthly mixtapes in the past few months. For the rest of you, now’s as a good a time as any to make their acquaintance as they’ve recently returned with a pair of [...]

Single Servings: Shortcircles – Between Waves

June 6th, 2013

Oakland-based producer Shortcircles, a.k.a. Matthew Tammariello, is definitely one of the most promising new purveyors of blissed-out electronica that I’ve heard in some time. “All I Can Be For You” is the first single off of his forthcoming debut Between The Waves. The track is built on an airy and effervescent glide supported by light, bubbling [...]

Turntable Kitchen’s Summer Anticipation Mix

May 31st, 2013

We’re pretty big fans of Summertime and all the great things it brings along with it such as warmer weather, Summer music festivals, Summer fruit, days at the beach, and so on. Sure, the season doesn’t officially begin for nearly a month (June 21st for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere), but that doesn’t [...]

Single Serving: 8th Grader – 8th Grader EP

May 27th, 2013

For the past year and a half, San Francisco-based 8th Grader (a.k.a. Jayson Martinovich) has been wowing us with his blissed-out, synth-heavy brand of indie-soul. His debut single “Heavy Without You” was on constant rotation in our home for months with its slow-burning groove, neon-touched melody, and sparkling ambiance. Meanwhile, his more plaintive jam “All The Sweetness” [...]

Single Serving: The Preatures – Is This How You Feel?

May 22nd, 2013

The Preatures - Is This How You Feel? single

I’m definitely digging the groove on this lead single from Sydney, Australia-based The Preatures‘ upcoming EP. The band lay out a tumbling, old-school soul vibe while vocalist Isabella Manfredi unfurls a sweet and sultry croon that reminds me a little of Feist at her most upbeat. It’s incredibly addicting. Not only that, because they sport two [...]

Single Serving: Case Studies – This Is Another Life

May 21st, 2013

Case Studies is the project of Seattle-songwriter Jesse Lortz (also from the band The Dutchess and the Duke). His sophomore LP, This Is Another Life, is slated for release on June 11th. I haven’t heard the whole release yet, but I pre-ordered a copy of the release based solely on the strength of the album’s first single “Everything.” [...]

Single Serving: Shark Week – Go West

May 17th, 2013

Our friends at Analog Edition/Everybody Taste are back with a brand new vinyl single from D.C.-based quartet Shark Week. You may remember these swaggering garage rockers from our October 2012 mix (their track “Get High” was a highlight). Shark Week’s latest offering features a pair of bluesy, sunburnt grooves the four piece recorded in the Santurce neighborhood [...]
