Radiohead unveil video for new track "Daydreaming"

So Radiohead just dropped another new one, this one is called "Daydreaming" and the video was directed by P.T. Anderson. It's another lengthy Radiohead track sitting in at a mighty SIX minutes plus and sees the band basically cement the sound they're going for on LP9.

You can watch the video in full below.

[LISTEN] Tusks - False

Tusks' latest offering quite might be her most spine-tingling of the lot, and with those Daughter-style  beats kick in you know your ears are in for a treat. The track builds so well and then explodes at the midway point showcasing one of the many reasons why Tusks has been signed by One Little Indian.

If you could imagine the music from Foals' CCTV Session's mixed in with some Daughter and The XX then you've got this latest effort, it's seriously good, definitely one of my 'to watch live before 2017' list!

Amber Run reveal video for experimental new track "Haze"

So it's been a while since we've heard anything new from Amber Run, and after massing well over a million views on just one song on YouTube, they've certainly built up a reputation for producing great tracks. Their latest effort is a short two minute affair that showcases the band doing something a bit more experimental.

It's the first taste of material off their - as yet untitled - new album, you can take a listen to it below and check out the video too.

[LISTEN] Mark Pritchard - Beautiful People (feat. Thom Yorke)

NEW Thom Yorke alert, well he's a featuring artist on this one but it's spooky as fuck, maybe not the best idea when I'm home alone with only a laptop screen and my speakers to hand. "Under the Sun" is the forthcoming LP from UK electronic producer Mark Pritchard, and with Thom's vocals on top of it we're getting a spine tingling once again.

Mark Pritchard said - "The original instrumental to "Beautiful People" is a personal song about loss, hopelessness and chaos, but ultimately the message is love and hope. Thom’s contribution to this collaboration captured perfectly what the piece is about. I will be forever grateful to have worked with such a immense talent."

[LISTEN] Indigoe - The Flash

Fresh out of California is Indigoe, the project of Josh Collopy is an instrumental track with nods towards TYCHO, the ambient side of The 1975 and is ready for those 'Midnight Mixtapes'. The track is an epic six minutes long and oozes bounce and bite.

Head on down to check out Indigoe's début track "The Flash".

[LISTEN] LEØ - Hold On

As it's a bit shitty here in my flat, and a bit dark outside I'm roaming the internet for some new dark-pop, and I've found a pretty ace track called "Hold On" by LEØ. LEØ are from Brisbane in Australia and this is currently their second single, I can see a Triple J performance around the corner if they keep up this hype.

"Hold On" has it all, so stream it below and enjoy - it's free to download too!

[LISTEN] We Are All Astronauts - Found And Lost feat. SEAWAVES (Sunset Mix)

We Are All Astronauts have joined forces with electro-pop sensation SEAWAVES for their new track "Found and Lost". The trackis inspired by a story about a lighthouse watchman who loses his love in a shipwreck and decides to take his own life so that he can be with her once again. A sad tale with a thread of beauty.

It's certainly a track you'd want to listen to over and over again, so head on down below to listen to the mammoth of a track!

[LISTEN] Foals - Rain (Demo)

After the announcement of their Record Store Day 2016 release, which is "Rain"/"Daffodils", the band streamed the new cut, "Rain". It's a cut from the album sessions when they were recording "What Went Down", but this 'demo' was recorded as a part of the 'Poolside Sessions'.

Enjoy.

[LISTEN] The 1975 - Somebody Else

The 1975 have shared "Somebody Else" which is lifted from their up-coming second album "I Like It When You Sleep, For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware Of It" - or "ILIWYS,FYASBYSUOT" as we call it... The track effectively is a throwback track to their pre-debut album kinda work, smooth, chilled out and slightly experimental in approach.

Matty said to Zane Lowe (who premièred it) - "It’s something that talks about the guilty feelings that you don’t really like thinking about.". You can head on down and stream it, enjoy!

[LISTEN] James Blake - Modern Soul

Tonight during his BBC Radio 1 residency, James Blake played a brand new song of his called "Modern Soul". It's lifted from his forthcoming album "Radio Silence" which he confirmed (again) during a residency show last year.

The album has yet to be confirmed past this one track and the album title, but he has now confirmed that Justin Vernon - of Bon Iver - and Kanye West would appear on his new album. James will headline Field Day in London on Saturday 11th June 2016 - and hopefully playing some more new tunes.

 You can take a listen to Blake's ambient track below.

[LISTEN] Foals - Give It All (Foals vs Clint Mansell)

Now it's not every day you hear a stunning piece of work that sounds like it's come from outer-space! Well that's what this new version of Foals' "Give It All" sounds like, called the 'Foals vs Clint Mansell' version I guess... you need to listen to this at the darkest moment of night, watching the stars, it's a real epic piece of ambient music that'll twist your head, make you smile up at the universe and want to listen to again.

[LISTEN] Richard Walters - Young Folks (Peter Bjorn and John Cover)

Remember that song that you whistled along to back in the late 2000's? Yeah, that one! Well it was Peter Bjorn and John's "Young Folks" and has been a bit ever since, but here is a rather delicate cover of it by Richard Walters. He's stripped it right back to the bare bones, some twinkling piano keys, his vocals and some rather epic production - get your chillout session started here!

[LISTEN] The Japanese House - Letter By The Water

The Japanese House (a.k.a 20 year-old Amber Bain) is today sharing the video to "Letter By The Water", the third track to be taken from her new Clean EP. Following the release of her acclaimed début EP, Pools To Bathe In, earlier this year, which saw Zane Lowe make track "Still" his last ever 'Hottest Record' on Radio 1, the young Londoner will release her new EP on the 6th of November through Dirty Hit Records.

The EP was recorded by The 1975's Matt Healy and George Daniel.

Zak Abel covers Candi Staton's "You've Got The Love"

Zak Abel has done a very touching cover of Candi Staton's "You've Got The Love", which was also made famous by Florence + The Machine and to another extent The XX. Here Zak takes elements from both covers to produce a rather laid back track with some very soulful nods and pulls off a wonderful cover with just his vocals and a piano, a true musician right there everyone!

The cover was recorded for BBC Radio 1XTRA.

[LISTEN] Secular Ghost - Wormhole #1

Secular Ghost is the solo musical project by Ryan James, who is half of the electronic outfit Man Without Country, and this is the B-side to his debut single "The Bystander Effect" - this track is purely an haunting ambient-instrumental - scroll down and chillout!

[LISTEN] Foals - Rain (Poolside Session) [Demo]

With Foals' fourth album being released this Friday people have been absolutely loving it, and some were asking if there was anything else record apart from the 10 tracks on the album.

On the 27th of August - one day before the album came out - we broke to you the news that the band wrote 17 songs for the album, of which ten went onto the LP, and we also gave you the title of one of those tracks that didn't make the cut. "Rain".

You can listen to the Poolside Session below (could be a demo too but we're not too sure). It's just Yannis at his best, chilled out and laid back lullabies.

Buy / Foals - What Went Down

[LISTEN] LOVATS - Respite

Since releasing their single "Fiction" around a year ago the Birmingham quintet have been somewhat quiet, but today they broke their silence with an instrumental track called "Respite" which pitches in at just two minutes long.

They first came to our attention with their track "White Fire", which you can buy below.

[LISTEN] Frett - Drop Of Starch

Frett have been steadily on the up for a few months now, and since they had a track on the Killing Moon album they've got a whole new bunch of fans to showcase their music to. Today see's the first new track in a few months from them in the shape of "Drop Of Starch". It's got a very steady start to it with an intro that can be instantly compared to Mansionair, with the duel vocals from Elliot and Simon going on it creates a even bigger sense of atmosphere from what already is a very laid back but very spacey track. Frett seem to be step by step getting better and better, it'll be time soon for them to sign a deal with a major!

You can see them perform at Latitude Festival this weekend on The Lake Stage.
