Stream: Haraket - İlk EP
After earning spots on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show, BBC 6 Music, and The Line Of Best Fit (which debuted the remix of the first ilk EP single "Taint"), Peckham group Haraket (Turkish for "movement") fully debuted its new four-track ilk EP today, courtesy of Melodica Recordings.
The work is a staunch mix of free-form jazz and softly enriching R&B, making for a confidently unique spin. Check it out below, order it on iTunes, and watch out for the 12" vinyl version coming January 25.

DARKSIDE - Freak, Go Home (Live Maida Vale Session)
As part of their ongoing residency for BBC Radio 1 DJ Heidi, Nicolas Jaar and Dave Harrington - aka DARKSIDE - stopped by the Maida Vale studios for a special live rendition of "Freak, Go Home."
The Psychic cut finds the constantly interpretive Jaar sitting back on his gear with Harrington flirting with subtle guitar loops, churning an atmospheric haze throughout. For anyone impressed with the release - which should be sitting on a lot of top ten lists in December - the live version is a must.
Watch it below and grab Psychic today via Matador and Jaar's Other People imprint.

Arcade Fire - Afterlife (Radio Rip)
A night after Arcade Fire played a deceptive, tiny show in Brooklyn, in which the band debuted even more material from the massive double-album Reflektor, Zane Lowe debuted the album's second official single "Afterlife."
It's been a while since the "Reflektor" single debuted, so the wait for this has been surprisingly long. Luckily, it's another gem for the Arcade Fire catalog. Listen to the radio rip below and pre-order Reflektor on Merge before its October 29 release.

New Jacques Greene - On Your Side (ft. How To Dress Well)
Details of the forthcoming EP release from Montreal producer Jacques Greene are finally seeing the light of day. The full tracklist, which is available at FACTMag, also contains this new cut featuring the help of How To Dress Well. Aesthetically speaking, considering Greene's penchant for combing house and R&B, it's a perfect match that suits the two parties well.
Stream "On Your Side" below. Greene's EP of the same name will be released digitally June 3, with physical copies coming out July 1. Pre-orders are available now, which will come with the radio edit title track which premiered today on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show.

Oneman's BBC Radio 1 set
Stepping over at Diplo and Friend's BBC Radio 1 a couple weeks back was resident Rinse FM DJ Oneman, with a tremendous 60 track(!) mix session. Going into details of the behemoth set is possible overkill, but Oneman doesn't leave too many steps uncovered. It's heavy in acid house, hip-hop, and endlessly engaging. Check out the session below, which is also available for download.

Live: Lapalux - Benji B's BBC Radio 1 show
The newest member of Flying Lotus' highly-touted Brainfeeder label is Essex producer Lapalux, who recently debuted his second LP Nostalchic. The label previewed the gloriously complex new album about a week ago, which is available now via iTunes and Bleep. But for those who missed out, Lapalux, born Stuart Howard, performed a session of tracks from the new album on Benji B's BBC Radio 1 show today.
Included in the near 30-minute mix are several Nostalchic cuts, and a few special selections, including a spliced version of Gwen Stefani's "Luxurious."
Stream to entire session below and grab the LP today.

New James Blake - Voyeur
James Blake is seemingly unstoppable right now. The 24-year-old is still a few weeks off from releasing his super-hyped Overgrown LP, and has been teasing with new tracks again and again. This weekend, we got a listen to the brand new "Voyeur," the fourth track heard so far from the LP.
Originally featured on Anne Hobbes' BBC Radio 6 show this weekend, "Voyeur" is simple looped vocal verse with jarring and driving split rhythms pacing the finish. Where it begins in contrast to where it ends, in terms of size and perspective scope is truly remarkable. It goes without much saying at this point that "Voyeur" is shaping up to be one of the year's best and is really transforming Blake into a wholly original and budding star.
Check out the track below and grab Overgrown April 8 on Republic Records.

New Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Sacrilege
Just premiering over at Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show is "Sacrilege," the first official single from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' long-awaited fourth studio album, Mosquito. It's a tamed take, with Nick Zinner's stuttered guitars frenzied in the back drop, while Karen O' flinches with her primeval yelps. Eventually, a chorus floats in, in case you were wondering what direction the band might be taking on the new album.
Check it below and grab the album April 16 via Interscope.

New James Blake - Retrograde
As was promised yesterday, James Blake's brand new single, "Retrograde," premiered today on Zane Lowe's BBC 1 Radio show. The track has an elegant touch of Blake's looping harmonies with eventual electro drone overtones fans of his self-titled LP will be plenty familiar with.

New Chemical Brothers - Theme For Velodrome
Joining the likes of Muse, who contributed the official song for this summer's Olympic Games in London, The Chemical Brothers have also added their own single. "Theme For Velodrome" is the theme for the velodrome, where the cycling events of the games will take place. It also works out as a song that sounds like it might be part of the Drive soundtrack.

A few weeks back, we heard our first bit of Sigur Rós' upcoming Valtari album, which has quickly become the next most anticipated album of 2012, with the seven minute-plus "Ekki Múkk." Today, we get "Varúð," a much shorter cut, which premiered on Shaun Keaveny's BBC Radio 6 show. Listen below.

Monday Bears: Two New Arcade Fire Songs
A few months prior to the release of the Arcade Fire's deluxe edition of The Suburbs
"Speaking in Tongues" also features the help of David Byrne, while "Culture War" fits the more conventional Subrubs-esque style.
UPDATE: Head over here to listen to the tracks, I had to take them down because of apparent malware bananary.

James Blake "Wilhelm Scream" official video
About two weeks ago, James Blake showed up at BBC's Maida Vale Studios to perform a batch of new songs, including "The Wilhelm Scream," from his anticipated full-length debut, which is scheduled for release next Monday, Feb. 7.
The song got its official due, which features Blake standing in the same room he stands in to make all of his album covers, apparently.

Monday Bears: More new Arcade Fire songs
Earlier this morning, BBC Radio's Zane Lowe premiered two new tracks from the Arcade Fire's heavily, heavily anticipated upcoming album, The Suburbs, weeks after the record's eponymous track and "Month of May" were leaked online.
The new tracks, which you can grab at We All Want Someone to Shout For, are a bit more everlasting than their other two previous releases. See for yourself below.
The group is currently on the European leg of their tour to promote The Suburbs, and won't be back in the States until August 1. You'll still have to wait for their new album, which is scheduled for release August 2, via Merge Records.
