Taking a look back through the year's with The Strokes' newest video for "All The Time," we get a formative home-video montage of what it's been like to grow up with the New York garage stars. Fittingly so, the perspective is given with a song that seems to truly fit the Strokes Is This It? early styles.
Grab the band's upcoming fifth studio album Comedown Machine March 26 via RCA.

New James Blake - And Holy Ghost
It's been a little more than a week since James Blake dropped "Digital Lion," another new cut from his increasingly anticipated Overgrown LP, but we've already got another new track to dig into.
"And Holy Ghost," a dizzying and spaced-out crawl with no Blake vocals to speak of, premiered via Benji B's BBC Radio 1 show earlier, but you can listen to the track below via Blake's 1-800 Dinosaur Soundcloud page.
Overgrown is due out April 8 via Polydor and Republic Records.

Hyetal - Northwest Passage
Over at Abeano, we got a taste of Hyetal's "Northwest Passage." While the artist has done his due diligence with Julio Bashmore as part of their Velour side-project, Hyetal (with vocals from Gwilym Gold) proves his value on his own with thumping rhythms and some clever lost-in-space off-key construction.
The 12" single is slated for release April 29 via True Panther Records. Listen below.
New BenZel - Semi Detached (ft. Cass Lowe and Chance The Rapper)
Super-young Japanese producer duo BenZel (seriously, the guys are 15 and 16-years old) released the poppy and atmospheric "Semi Detached" with some righteous help from singer Cass Lowe and Chance The Rapper. 15 and 16. I cannot stress this enough, guys.
Check out the glorious track below.
New AraabMuzik - Motion Picture
Not shortly after the release of his For Professional Use Only 20-track free mixtape, AraabMuzik is already moving forward. Today, the producer released yet another new track with the announcement of a few new tour dates.
Check out the dates here, which begins April 10 at Brooklyn's Output club and listen to "Motion Picture" below.

Dead Leaf Echo - Birth
New York three-piece Dead Leaf Echo have been drifting around since beginning in 2006. Never gaining huge word-of-mouth nation-wide, the band was still highly regarded in their native city, and hit up SXSW in 2010 alongside a few more familiar acts like Japanther and A Place To Bury Strangers.
With another trip to Austin this week, fans will have another chance to witness one of shoegaze's best lesser-known acts. Wednesday, March 13, the band will be performing at Lucy's Retired Surfers Bar at 4 p.m. The next day, the band will be performing at Todd's Mansion at 6 p.m. Saturday, the group will be appearing at Buffalo Billiards with The Ocean Blue at 9 p.m. And next Sunday, finally, the band will be performing with The Warlocks at The Volstead at 2 p.m.
For a preview, check out the band's single "Birth" from their debut Thought & Language here.
New The Knife - A Tooth For An Eye
In the newest video from The Knife's extremely anticipated new album Shaking the Habitual, directors Roxy Farhat and Kakan Harmansson look for the uncommon in role reversal. A group of men is led in charge by a young woman, who guides them through vulnerable and largely uncomfortable maneuvers. In sense, per the explanation Farhat gave, it allowed them to grace their weaknesses when they least expected it.
Shaking The Habitual is slated for release April 8 and 9. Pre-order (you must) the album here, and watch the video/stream "A Tooth For An Eye" below.
New Four Tet - For These Times
Released as part of Non Plus Record's fourth anniversary compilation Think and Change is this new house- oriented cut from Four Tet. The new track may be getting a little less play than his remix of Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie," which also hit waves today, but for Kieren Hebden fans there's never too much to go around.
Check out the track below and grab Think and Change today.
Album Stream: And So I Watch You From Afar - All Hail Bright Futures
Courtesy of the fella's over at Noisey, stream Ireland's And So I Watch You From Afar's third studio album All Hail Bright Futures.
The album release comes after the band's move to Sargent House, which houses other notable acts like Omar Rodriguez Lopez and Boris. The largely instrumental 12-track piece, which is available to stream below, is set for release March 19. The band will be heading out on a European tour with an additional fourth member (Niall Kennedy) on guitar), starting on March 22 at the Amplified Bar in Newry, Ireland.
Check here for the full list of tour dates.
