Work Drugs - “Pluto”

Feeling the heat? Is it getting to be too much? Don’t worry Work Drugs have come to save you with their new single “Pluto”. The song is about a love interest from long ago that can’t be recognized now. The new single appears on their upcoming release Absolute Bearing (pre-order it now). Having been long time fans of the guys, this tune is one of their radio-friendly. Most of it comes from the hook in the chorus (which is one of their strongest). At the same time, they manage to stay true to their signature sound. Tune in and let the song take you off to a far away beach.

NanosauR-All I Want

I haven’t been listening to producer material for the longest time but it’s been long enough to decide who my favorites in the scene are right now. This morning when I logged into facebook I was surprised to see that Micheal Solorzano aka NanosauR had dropped a new track and I immediately went to check it out. I don’t know how I missed out on this because I’ve been playing it on repeat for the better part of half an hour now. “All I Want” is the latest material from Solorzano ever since his astonishing LP Afterglow and if this is any indication of a slightly new direction then I’m all for it. The song has more of a new wave feel than some of his prior work but it still has that trademark NanosauR style full of lush synths and crisp beats. It’s also nice to hear him doing vocals on this track as well since I was a huge fan of the amount of singing on Imagination Projects. You can pick up the track for free over on soundcloud and listen to plenty of other stuff as well. Also, be sure to visit bandcamp where you can grab his first two full lengths, Afterglow and Imagination Projects for $5, along with Shades for $3.

Flashlights - "Slow Down (Brothertiger Remix)"

A sweet remix to tide us all over while we wait impatiently for Brothertiger's full length, 'Golden Years', to come out in late March. Something tells me it will be worth the wait.

Teen Daze - Brooklyn Sunburn

The first single from Teen Daze's upcoming debut full length LP was released on Monday. I love the evolution of Jamison's sound. Can't wait to see how "All Of Us, Together" compares to "Four More Years," which was my favorite EP of 2010.

NanosauR - Heem

Guess who's back? No, not this blog. Okay, yes, also this blog. But more importantly, NANOSAUR is back!

The new album is full of sweet, sweet beats. Unfortunately, there are a lot more instrumental tracks this time around (what can I say? I love the dude's voice!) but the album is HOT, and there are still a handful of tracks that Mike sings on.

If you're lucky you can still grab a free download at Nanosaur's Bandcamp. Better hurry up, dudes.
