The Black Keys are back with their first single in two and a half years. “Fever” does the job of giving us one of the most modern sounding songs we’ve ever from them, while still retaining the same qualities that made “Lonely Boy” a hit for El Camino. I’m just happy we’re getting a new album from them so soon, and after this I think you might be too.

Chromatics are back with another perfect song taken from their upcoming After Dark 2 triple LP.

I recently discovered Mansions on the Moon while watching an episode of Made in Chelsea. They sound a lot like what I’d imagine Postal Service to sound like now if they were still making music today.

There’s something quite magical about combining hip hop with The Black Keys. After their collaboration with RZA I’ve been desperate to hear more like it and that’s exactly what you get in the mash-up done by Wick-It The Instigator which features Big Boi.

Flume’s debut album is doing incredibly well which is amazing for someone apart of a lesser appreciated genre, which he describes as “Flume Step”.

If you’re tired of listening to Alt-J I recommend listening to these guys.

New song from Beach Fossils.

Here’s another Australian band that’s starting to make a few waves. I’m convinced that their name is a synonym for a Pterodactyl who loves snacks.

The Man With The Iron Fists is shaping up to be one my most anticipated films for this year and a song featuring The Black Keys and RZA (who also directed the movie) was just released and is amazingly ridiculous, centering around a kung fu-infused brawl over a fortune cookie.
