Bruce Springsteen Glory Days

In honour of the Boss' 60th birthday this week, we've been pumping our fists in the air to his bittersweet classic from 1984.

Atlas Sound Sheila

The latest song to emerge from Atlas Sound's forthcoming record 'Logos' is a sweet dash of dreamy art pop.

Hockey Song Away

This new single is a fine combination of epic 80s vocals, tight new-wave guitars and a catchy chorus.

Blk Jks Lakeside

A great slab of distorted art-rock from the debut album by Johannesburg-based band of the moment.

Noisette Upset Lockdown

Produced by 6th Sense and Apple Juice Kid sees "Don't Upset the Rhythm" mashed with Kanye's "Love Lockdown". The result? Quite genius, actually.

Raekwon Walk Wit Me

iTunes-only bonus track from the acclaimed new LP by the Wu-Tang man is suitably eerie and menacing.
