New CHVRCHES video - Gun

The pathway for Glasgow group CHVRCHES becoming the next big indie pop group is being steadily paved. Shortly after the release of "Gun," the band debuted the colorful new video for the hit single from the upcoming debut album The Bones Of What You Believe. Check it out below and watch out for the album September 24.

Alexander Spit releases new video, announces next project

Housing what may be the best debut of 2013 (so far) is California rapper Alexander Spit. You may remember a some time after the release of A Breathtaking Trip To That Other Side, Spit debuted the massive 25-track free instrumental mixtape Mansions 2, further cementing his stamp on the first of half of the year. Now, Spit has another new video for "Black Magic On Blue Magic" from director Jason Goldwatch.

The new video gives a look at Spit's intimidatingly awesome studio, but comes with even better news. Spit already announced a follow-up to A Breathtaking Trip To That Other Side with To Be Invisible Will Be My Claim To Fame, which could be coming out shortly. Watch the video below and stay tuned for more details of the follow-up effort.

New Califone - Stitches

Chicago indie veterans Califone have been quiet since the band's last release, 2009's All My Friends Are Funeral Singers. But for the first time in the band's 16-year history the newest LP was recorded outside of its native city, hitting the American Southwest for more inspiration.

The rugged title track "Stitches" shows a little ware with age, and the recording move shows little changes in subtlety (not just with the desert-themed album cover). Stream the track below and grab Stitches September 3 on Dead Oceans.

Dornik - Something About You

"Something About You," this completely left field totally engrossing R&B single, comes mysteriously from Dornik Leigh. If the name is unfamiliar, no worries. Leigh drums as part of Jessie Ware's band, and has been debuting some of his miraculous solo stuff. The new single comes from PMR, the same label that enlists Ware's talents (as well as Disclosure), and is available to stream below.

New No Age - C'mon Stimmung

It's kinda unclear what "C'mon Stimmung" actually means (you tell me), but who cares? It's brand new No Age, dammit.

The messy, profusely chaotic and disorienting track is the first from the band's upcoming new LP An Object, which will be released August 20 on Sub Pop. Listen to it below.

Shigeto - Detroit Part 1

Before Ann Arbor producer Shigeto releases his brand new No Better Time Than Now LP, Ghostly is offering a preview of the album's first official single "Detroit Part 1."

Obvious jazz influences reign through on the track with peeling key progressions railing behind brisk snare drops and pulsed synths, which can be streamed below. The label, also based in Ann Arbor, will be releasing "Detroit Part 1" as a 12" June 17, roughly two months before the scheduled August 20 release date of No Better Time Than Now.

New Smith Westerns - Idol

Chicago's Smith Westerns have already plucked two spirited offerings from the upcoming Soft Will LP, but seemed to have topped both "Varsity" and 3 AM Spiritual" with "Idol." All three tracks - which might be a good indicator of Soft Will as a whole - are far more harmonious than most of the material the group brought out with its self-titled debut and 2011's excellent Dye It Blonde. Expect the rest of the record to hold the same regard, although it may fall by the wayside compared to the year's bigger releases.

Listen to "Idol" below and grab Soft Will June 25 on Mom + Pop Records.

New Schoolboy Q - Collard Greens (ft. Kendrick Lamar)

While Kendrick Lamar has blown past the idea of superstar in recent months, his fellow Black Hippy crew member Schoolboy Q may not be far behind. Q has a brand new album on the way in the form of Oxymoron, which boasts not only the lead single "Yay Yay," but this furious brand new cut "Collard Greens."

Kendrick does what only he seems to be capable of, with a thrilling guest verse, but the whole tracks sits a top as one of the year's best. Stream it below and watch out for Oxymoron soon.

New Fat Tony video - Hood Party (ft. Kool A.D. and Despot)

Hanging out on Froogle, the latest media incarnation of what a Google Hangout is (still haven't done that - note: need more internet friends) are Fat Tony, Kool A.D., and Despot for "Hood Party." Tony sticks with his Houston, with A.D. and Despot stashing on the coasts. Look closely and you might notice plenty of cameos, ranging from Bun B, Rai P, Lakutis, Amaze 88, and plenty more.

Check it out below and grab Fat Tony's newest album Smart Ass Black Boy today via Young One Records.

New Washed Out - It All Feels Right

If the sun is out at this very moment, then stop wasting time and stream "It All Feels Right," the first singles from Washed Out's upcoming LP Paracosm. Like a lot of what Ernest Greene churns out, "It All Feels Right" sounds like a glistening sunset, and has a lyric video with plenty of forest-like imagery to support that assumption.

Paracosm is set for release August 12 on Sub Pop.

New Paul White - Watch The Ants

Frequent Danny Brown producer Paul White debuted "Watch The Ants," the jubilant marching anthem from his upcoming EP of the same name yesterday. The track, available to stream below, features a clever array of vocal loops that may not seemingly mesh well together, but come through with a spiral of percussion and subtle keys.

Pre-orders for the aforementioned EP are available now via White's Bandcamp, with Watch The Ants set for release July 28.

New XXYYXX - Pay Attention

"Pay Attention" marks the first official cog in the likely upcoming hype cycle of Florida producer XXYYXX. It's a low-looped beauty tempering with elegant keys that one could easily mistake for Flying Lotus - a high praise, if there ever was. Stream the lead single from the upcoming album, which is sure to make light some time later this year.

New Young Galaxy video - New Summer

"New Summer," one of the many ultra-catchy singles from Young Galaxy's most recent output Ultramarine, has a brand new video courtesy of NPR and director Ivan Grbovic. And apparently, we figure out that the "New" in "New Summer" wasn't really about weather at all, but massive industrial destruction and general mayhem. See for yourself below and grab Ultramarine today.
