Adam Kasturi: Literary Beat Maker
Adam Kasturi is a true bedroom producer and outsider musician — he’s never seen at gigs, clubs, art events, or anywhere really — but we think he’s the one producer to look out for in the local beat scene.
Maharajalela: Off the Grid Reign
Raksasa, whose stage name is another nickname, Maharajalela, released his LP Jualbeli Tanggapan recently. A little known album that deserves wider recognition.
Actress: R.I.P
R.I.P. marries the familiarity of techno with the abstraction of minimalist and ambient, marring none of the genres and coalescing into something of a transcendental dance record.
The Sufis: Reviving Psychedelic Rock
The Sufis is a new psychedelic rock band, fresh out of Nashville, Tennessee, and we think it’s worth your time to have a listen.
Future of the Left: The Plot Against Crass Commercialism
Lead single ‘Sheena is a T-Shirt Salesman’ from their forthcoming album, The Plot Against Common Sense, is a plot against the crass commercialisation of music.
Beach House: Bloom
Beach House’s Bloom conjures blooming nostalgia — a sort of tribute to teenhood.
Santigold: Master Of My Make-Believe
Santigold’s Master of My Make-Believe is a call to action that is vaguely contextual just as pop as a genre is vaguely genre-specific – call it protest pop.
Icona Pop: Sweet Swedes
These sweet Swedes’ latest single, ‘I Love It’, is irresistibly infectious with seemingly innocent energy to its adorably risqué lyrics.
Steve Aoki: Wonderland
Since Steve Aoki’s live performance is tomorrow, here’s a little sumthin’ sumthin’ to get you pumped.
Dawn Richard: Armor On
Dawn Richard’s almost conceptual Armor On EP might not be the most original of ideas, but on a pop record it’s a novelty that we’d like to see more of.
