Raheem DeVaughn Nobody Wins the War

An all-star cast of neo-soul luminaries line up to assist the Grammy-nominated singer on one of the standout tracks from his new LP, 'The Love & War MasterPeace'.

Sparklehorse Sick of Goodbyes

After saying a sad goodbye to Mark Linkous this week, we recall a lovely, tuneful track from his second Sparklehorse album, 1998's Good Morning Spider.

Kisses Bermuda

Fine melancholy electro-pop from the LA-based pair.

MGMT Flash Delirium

New song from hyped Brooklyn duo's second album "Congratulations", is a glorious blast of psych-pop.

Yuck Georgia

The new band from members of the former Cajun Dance Party sounds like a shoegazey Sonic Youth with brilliant songs like this debut single.

Johnny & the Medicine Show Hotter Than A Kiss

England's answer to The Drums mix 50s rock'n'roll with Shangri Las harmonies and The Strokes' primal intensity on their forthcoming debut single.

Julian Lynch In New Jersey

Lynch brilliantly layers a plethora of instruments, ghostly vocals and pastoral sounds on this new song.
