Leak: Kanye West- Yeezus

 If you can't wait for the release date, a YouTube search will give you a listen of the leaked version of Kanye's new record.

"I have a new strategy, it's called 'no strategy.' I have a plan to sell more music -- it's called 'make better music,'" he said. "I had to learn about giving, this whole album is about giving -- this whole process is about giving ... no f--ks at all."

Video: Laura Welsh- Cold Front

This is definitely Laura Welsh's finest track to date. On all her tracks her voice soars and the lyrics all drip with emotion, but this track is given extra weight and extra beauty by the masterful production of Rhye's Robin Hannibal. Unfortunately there seems to be no info given about the video's director, the dancer or how it was shot.

Video: Múm- Toothwheel

Múm are back with one of the most affecting tracks I've heard in a long time. They have always been masters at crafting beats from the most unusual sound, and as expected, they have combined all sorts of found sounds and blips and blops to make one of the livest sounding glitchy beats. These scatty beats are set against very live sounding strings and piano and heart broken vocals.
Múm have a new album out on September 2nd.

Video: MØ- Waste of Time

Karen Marie Ørsted is back with a video for her track "Waste of Time". The single itself is a triumph, and completely justifies all the hype she has been receiving of late. The beat on this track would suit a rapper perfectly, as the intro plays out could easily imagine the track becoming a trap rap song. MØ takes it in a unexpected direction with wailing pop vocals brimming with hip hop swagger. The video captures the atmosphere perfectly, depicting MØ as alluring but intimidating, and creates an intensely beautiful, foreboding mood, in tune with that of the song.

Stream: XXYYXX- Pay Attention

XXYYXX is an Orlando producer on Relief in Abstract records, he turned a lot of heads with his self titled album last year, both on account of the catchy tracks and his incredible production chops a 16 years old. Perhaps not as immediately appealing as some of the tracks off that album,  XXYYXX has given us a new track from his forthcoming release. An airy laid back jam that doesn't exactly cause you to "Pay Attention", rather it will most likely cause you to zone out.

Glass Animals- Black Mambo

via
Glass Animals are a UK folktronica act that combine live instrumentation with the subtlest electronics. There is something about them that reminds me of Alt-J, but the vocals are a touch more soulful and the electronics used are a lot slicker. They've put out a few tracks over the last year, that you can hear below. They have just put out the video (above) for their most recent track "Black Mambo".
