Boards of Canada | Reach for the Dead

[Boards of Canada]

After being dangled in front of cult-like fan’s drooling chops for months, Boards of Canada have given us the first proper taste of their forthcoming album, “Tomorrow’s Harvest”. This preview is in the form of a youtube video; the ambient single “Reach for the Dead”, set to a beautiful video -directed by Neil Krug- that spans saturated landscapes and defunct structures.

“Tomorrow’s Harvest” is out on Bleep; June 10th in Europe, and June 11th in North America.

Pre-order the album here.

Jacques Greene | On Your Side (ft. How to Dress Well)

On Your Side

A few hours ago, Jacques Greene shared a radio rip of his soul-inflected collaboration with How to Dress Well’s Tom Krell via Zane Lowe’s BBC Radio 1 show. “ On Your Side” is the title track of Greene’s forthcoming EP and is very much in the same vein as what you heard on his recent release with Tinashe for Yours Truly and adidas orginals’ “Songs from Scratch”.

Greene’s On Your Side EP will be released digitally on June 3 and physically on July 1. If you’re eager, preorder here.

Yugen EP | Koreless

As promised, today was the release date for his ‘Yugen’ EP on Young Turks.  ‘Last Remnants’ possesses tasteful melodies and the dreamy sound that entice my love for Koreless‘s music.

Give it a listen, check the previous single from the EP here, and purchase the vinyl or digital release here.

Roses (8prn remix) | Outkast

artworks-000047777169-jzhe1k-t500x500

Here is 8prn‘s take on Outkast’s anthemic pop classic “Roses”. This may be the dopest remix we have heard from Patrick Holland so far…

That said–he has a handful choice cuts in his remix discography already. (His adaptation of Evy Jane’s “nothing so great” is a personal favourite.)

If you are feeling 8prn‘s steez, put on his ‘escape’ mix; it’s fresh out of the oven:

You can catch him tomorrow night in Vancouver at Fortune. He will be warming up the crowd for Kaytranada and Kastle. Here are the details

Thundercat | Heartbreaks + Setbacks

  

[Stephen Bruner, a.k.a. Thundercat]

Stephen Bruner’s “Heartbreaks + Setbacks” is a single off of his forthcoming LP titled “Apocolypse” out via Brainfeeder on July 7th. The heart-felt single was co-produced by Brainfeeding cohorts Mono/Poly and Flying Lotus, and each artist can be heard distinctly within the track. Thundercat’s fingers skittering all over the bass guitar, Flying Lotus’s atmospheric chord progressions, and Mono/Poly’s signature ‘apreggiated’ synth lines all come together to create an emotional piece of artwork. 

Pre-order “Apocalypse” via Itunes, here.
