Ataraxia Nation

Music for the mind & soul.

Do yourselves a favor and go cop this Gambino remix straight from Miami Horror’s Souncloud. It’ll be the best decision you make all week. 

[ataraxianation]

Austra is ethereal, haunting, emotional, dark, unpredictable, raw, thumping electronic pop at it’s best. Do yourselves a favor and give this oldie but goodie listen.

Disclosure’s long awaited follow-up to the critically-acclaimed Settle will be dropping in 13 days, and so far, every single released off of their upcoming sophomore album has been tremendous. Hourglass, featuring neo-soulsters Lion Babe, is no exception.  And the collaborations only stand to get better. Tracks with The Weeknd, Lorde, and Miguel are all waiting in the wings, dying to see the light of day.

Get your pre-orders in now, the album drops on September 25th.

CHVRCHES – Clearest Blue

After performing and debuting

If this latest single is any indication, the new CHVRCHES album is going to be a work of soaring, synth-pop perfection.  September 25th can’t come soon enough.

Perfect summer-ready take on a classic.

After a long hiatus, it only feels appropriate to return with a killer funk bootleg by Dutch DJ Housemotion. It’s Thursday, which means it’s just about time to booty shake your way into the weekend.

Self-described as nu-hula, Vacationer really lives up to the moniker. Do yourselves a favor and check out their new record, Relief, for a full-blown, summer album experience.  Our favorite song so far? The Wild Life. Catchy African drums, island vibes, light-hearted vocals...

[ataraxianation]

Just released! Disclosure doesn't miss a step. Ever. 

[ataraxianation]

Banks, our obsession with you has reached new heights.

Sky Ferreira is it. She's got that old school, Joan Jett rock star vibe, just an effortless cool air about her. Don't believe us? Check out her new msuic video for "I Blame Myself."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7gmVWgEpRc Jamie xx has finally released his new track, Girl, a few weeks after it premiered on James Blake's BBC radio show.  He never disappoints. 

[ataraxianation]

Let's call it like it is. LA-based NYMZ has some massive trap game. BINGBONG is one of those "Oh SH*T" kind of tracks: that drop is 100% pure, unadulterated filth. It's no wonder Flosstradamus threw this into his Ultra set a few weeks back.  Hold on tight for this one, y'all. 

[ataraxianation]

Are you kidding us, Penn Badgely? You're a man after our own hearts. The ex-Gossip Girl start is fronting a Brooklyn band that goes by the name of Mother, and their first single, Easy, is nothing but pure soul, dark synths, and funk.  One request: give us more. 

[ataraxianation]

There are few things worse than a long New England winter, but thankfully, we've got an endless supply of summer jams to remind us of happier times.  Hit us with as much snow as you want, just as long as we can keep riding D E N A's smooth reggae beat.

Bishop Nehru, one of hip-hop's up and coming young new artists, has teamed up with Disclosure on his latest release. The track showcases the British electro-duos ever-expanding versatility --these boys are definitely set to make 2014 an even bigger year than their last.

YACHT is at it again! Their latest single, "Plastic Soul," is out today on DFA.  Lazy synth pop doesn't get any better than this.
