Sufjan Stevens – All Delighted People EP

With an album already announced (and an intriguing album cover), Stevens brings this stellar EP filled with bombast and typical Stevens folk. Listen to the whole thing down below.

Salem – “King Knight”

Much anticipated is Salem’s King Knight lp out in September. Here’s their overdrowned in synths lo-fi crunk style best represented on its title track.

Baths

All tracks sound amazingly chill and well directed. One to look out for.

Arch M – Land Huxt

Arch M stirred the blogosphere with a massive track a while ago. Now grab this dreamy highly conceptual EP and get dazed.

Nosaj Thing – Drift

You can't read much about Nosaj Thing aka Jason Chung (as simple as Jason spelled backwards) without finding a reference to Flying Lotus. The two are both active in the LA beat culture and have a comparable style, which some would describe as instrumental glitch-hop, whatever that means. But ...

Fever Ray

I hardly enjoyed it at first, but this album has been growing on me for the past few months to a point where I find myself constantly coming back to it. It's haunting, bittersweet and every time more astonishing is its subtly swelling darkness. Fever Ray's self titled isn't Karin Dreijer ...
