Been meaning to write about Purity Ring for a while now…sorry it’s taken me this long but serrrrrriously….listen to how good these productions are.  Soooo original and so clean.  Love it.  All of their sites literally say nothing about them other than tour dates, so i don’t know much.  It’s ok though, their songs speak [...]

Can’t stop listening to these guys right now…soooooo good.  Koan Sound, out of Bristol, UK caught my ear a few months back and with further look into their work, I became addicted.  The hard stuff I like, but it’s their minimal, melodic work that I love.  Their remix of Andain’s Promises is incredible, so is [...]

So I know that I already featured his track, Night Air on the HOHME Hundred, but still I can’t stress how good Jamie Woon is.  If any album deserves a double post, it’s his debut, Mirrorwriting, which released on the 18th of last month.  Upon first listen, it was immediately one of my new favorites.  [...]

If I’m introducing you to James Blake for the first time, that makes me extremely happy because you’re about to get a peek at one of the most progressive producers out right now….I also happen to be seeing him tonight, so this post’s extra special for me.  There’s literally nothing I’ve ever heard that compares [...]

I haven’t been able to stop playing this cover since a close friend recommended it to me about a month back.  It’s just too good.  Mike Posner did a fantastic job with this somewhat minimal, electronica version of Adele’s Rolling in the Deep.  For more Mike Posner, click here, for more Adele, click here. Make [...]

D.V.S*, one of WelcomeHOHME’s favorites is back with a few more gems for your ears, this time off Part One of his new album, Coming Up For Air.  If Trees sounds familiar to you, it’s probably because he teased us with it on the Newell & Doran mix.  Stay tuned to his bandcamp as he’ll [...]

You all know I love beautiful music…even further, I love beautiful music that can compliment different environments…music that you can get work done to yet still close your eyes and get lost in it whenever.  Live Footage does that for me.  Cellist, Topu Lyo and drummer, Mike Thies make up the Brooklyn-based duo.  They’ve been [...]

Watching artists evolve through their careers is one of my favorite things about being in the music industry.  I wrote about Audio Oddity, out of Southern Oregon last summer when he was remixing for Amp Live and fast forward to present, he just released his first, full-length album, titled Hiding In the Light.  Upon first [...]

I’ve had a bunch of friends point me in the direction of Twin Shadow (George Lewis Jr.) over the last six months and after a few listens, I couldn’t get enough of his hauntingly irresistible sounds.  His debut album, Forget, which Lewis recorded and performed fully by himself, released at the end of September and [...]

There’s some SERIOUSLY good new-wave soul coming out these days.  Just recently, I wrote about Ben L’Oncle Soul, and now I’m thrilled to introduce you guys to Chino Maurice.  Some of you know that I play all motown/soul/funky stuff for my monday residency at Apotheke.  Chino’s sound encompasses an era that you rarely hear new [...]

Was just introduced to Lymbyc System thanks to Chic-edelic and immediately love these guys.  Here’s two remixes of their tracks, Fall Bicycle and Truth Skull.  This is the kind of music I could listen to anywhere I am…traveling, doing work, on a beach, meditating, whatever…loves it.  Hope you all enjoy…for more, check out their site [...]

Love Sigur Ros….always have.  It’s been out for a while, but here’s a couple of my favorite songs off their newest album, Með suð I eyrum við spilum endalaust…..just absolutely gorgeous music.  I need to see them live, seriously…I need to and I will.  If you haven’t heard of Sigur Ros, I’m not sure we’re [...]

Neon Hitch has a pretty unique story, and not only because that’s literally the name her parents put on her birth certificate.  She was born into a family of gypsy street performers in London, traveling with the circus at age 4, ending up in India by herself at age 16 and flash forward to recently, [...]

I was introduced to Julian Forte, founding member of Future Vince, about six months ago and got a chance to listen to some of his unmastered work.  At the time, I was blown away by not only the technicality and precision of his music, but the production level coming from a student at Berklee College [...]

Kamp!, out of Poland, are a fresh new electro pop group that’s sure to make their presence known in the scene.  I like these two singles a lot, and not only because I’m an avid supporter of making words plural for no reason.  I don’t know a ton about them yet, but if their most [...]

I’m a sucker for beautiful music.  Case and point: Sharaya Mikael.  When her delightfully tranquil voice meets with the clean, yet tactful melodies of her band, it seems to consistently pull me in and instill this general sense of serenity.  I love that; when a group can immediately transport you to a completely different place [...]

Matthew Michael, also known as Audio Oddity‘s been playing music in Southern Oregon for years now and he’s just starting to put some of his produced/sound engineered work out.  Well, I’ll tell you what, he really stepped his game up for Amp Live’s Turn It Up remix contest.  He’s due to release his first full-length [...]

Recently I was lucky enough to be introduced by a friend to one of the members of Zambri, an up-and-coming Manhattan based group fronted by sisters, Jessica and Cristi Jo Zambri.  After a few listens through of their new EP, Bang For Changes, I was addicted to their dark yet delightful sound.  They’re getting great [...]
