New: T.I. – “Like That”

T.I.’s singles are customarily pretty accessible to the point of being kind of harmless – see his first Trouble Man single “Love This Life,” as well as the still-banging, similarly…

MP3: The Tallest Man On Earth – “1904″

One of our most anticipated releases of 2012 is The Tallest Man On Earth’s There’s No Leaving Now – we’ve played out Swedish folk-rock maestro Kristian Matsson’s The Wild Hunt,…

MP3: Mr Little Jeans – “Runaway” (Fool’s Gold remix)

If we love two things, they’re probably Mr Little Jeans’ “Runaway” and the world-beat jam band Fool’s Gold, so obviously we can’t stop listening to the latter’s remix of the…

Video: Friends – “Mind Control”

Brooklyn’s Friends are gearing up for an excellently titled debut record called Manifest!, and in doing so they’re branching out a little from the songwriting we know and love. Not…

Check Out: Kirin J Callinan: “WIIW (Way to War)”

Australian artist Kirin J Callinan delivers the creepiest, weirdest, best video of 2012.

Iron & Wine covers George Michael: “One More Try”

Iron & Wine are really fond of George Michael’s “One More Try,” for some reason. First they covered it for the AV Club, now they’re releasing it as a single…

New: Ab-Soul – “Black Lip Bastard” f/ Kendrick Lamar, ScHoolboy Q & Jay Rock

We’ve got mixed feelings about remixes that enlist every single rapper who had the time to record a verse – often, they end up sounding weird and crowded and uncomfortably…

Video: Bonde Do Role – “Kilo” f/ Diplo

We haven’t heard from Mad Decent’s finest pottymouthed Brazilian baile funk crew Bonde Do Role since 2007’s still-awesome With Lasers, but they’re back with a new song, the supremely catchy…

Spring Music Preview, Pt. 2

Here is the second part of our Spring Music Preview (part one is here). These are the albums we’re most looking forward to through June 21.

Check Out: Grimes – Vanessa (New Version)

If you’ve seen Grimes live recently, you know about the Canadian sci-fi pop star’s tendency to reinvent her songs in a live setting. When we’ve caught Claire Boucher live, we’ve…

MP3: RAC & Penguin Prison – “Hollywood”

You know RAC for their remixes – in fact, smart, catchy re-imaginations of other people’s songs are all we’ve heard from them to date. But now, Green Label Sound is…

New: 2 Chainz & Drake – “No Lie”

The first single from 2 Chainz’ Def Jam debut Based on a T.R.U. Story is the Drake-featuring “No Lie.” For a track that’s 2 Chainz’ on the package, there’s a…

MP3: ScHoolboy Q & TiRon – “Love Me Not”

We’re still in love with ScHoolboy Q’s Habits & Contradictions, so we’re psyched to hear that his star is (rightfully) on the rise – next up for Q is a…

New Young Pony Club: “You Used To Be A Man”

It’s been a while since we heard anything from the UK’s New Young Pony Club, but they’re back with a new single, “You Used To Be A Man,” and attendant…
