Jeremy Neale - In Stranger Times

If the awesome cover art wasn't enough, this track from Brisbane's Jeremy Neale is one of the more infectious Indie Pop/Soul songs you'll come across all year. I dare you to not feel good while listening to this track. It can't be done.

Kisses - Funny Heartbeat

Kisses are no strangers to TOTR. Before the big hiatus, Kisses' "The Heart of Nightlife" was one of favorite posts and I was fortunate enough to purchase the CD via their BandCamp. Now Kisses has returned with their latest LP, "Kids in L.A.". It's amazing. Here's the single off their latest release that you should most definitely be picking up. Unfortunately, it received a digital only release here in the U.S.

CHVRCHES - Recover (Video)

I won't lie, I only discovered this group because of comic book artist Jamie McKelvie. Thank god for Tumblr. CHVRCHES is quickly becoming one of my favorite groups thanks in no small part to the group's innovative sound and knack for catchy chorus'. Make sure you pick up their Recover EP HERE.

Superhumanoids - March of the Pigs (NIN Cover)

Smallpools - Dreaming

Everybody knows I'm a huge fan of "happy" music. With that said, it doesn't really get any happier than this. So far, this is the only track I could find from these guys but this definitely falls into the realm of Passion Pit-esque Indie-Pop. It's always fun to discover a band whose only song is amazing. Just an awesome sign of things to come. Oh yea, it's FREE to download.

MØ - Waste of Time

One of the more innovative and unique artists I've come across has been none other than Denmark's, MØ. This song fuses multiple genre's resulting in a song that seems to me, to be very indicative of the future of music. I can't wait to hear more from MØ.

JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound - Rouse Yourself

I recently stumbled upon JC Brooks and the Uptown and what an awesome discovery that was. Their music kind of reminds me of Mayer Hawthorne in the sense that it's a very updated, up-beat, soul sound that you can't help but enjoy. Apparently, they've been making music for a while but it was "Rouse Yourself" off of their most recent release, "Howl" that first caught my attention. They've made the track available for FREE Download via soundcloud which is pretty awesome and if you'd like to check out the album, you can purchase it HERE.

Capital Cities - Stayin' Alive (Bee Gees Cover)

Capital Cities released their debut album today but before that, they dropped this awesome cover of the classic, "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees. They really did a great job of updating a classic but at the same time preserving everything that made it great. Download the track for FREE below.

XV - Rise (Prod. By The Awesome Sound)

Here's another song from one of my favorite artists that have still yet to get the recognition they deserve. Vizzy partners up with long time collaborator, The Awesome Sound to bring us, "Rise". Honestly can't believe that people are still sleeping on XV.

K.Flay - West Ghost (Mixtape)

I find it only fitting that for my first post after a year long hiatus I'm posting the latest mixtape from one of my favorite artists, K.Flay. West Ghost is her most recent full length release and honestly, it bangs. My favorite track on the album is probably the title track with Allen Stone followed closely by "The Cops". The whole mixtape is really a must listen. If you're late jumping on the K.Flay bandwagon, you can download the rest of her discography HERE. The best part, this whole project is FREE.

Don't call it comeback!

So after a year long hiatus that was mainly attributed to the demise of mediafire, I've decided to give it another shot with TOTR. I'm always going to have that urge to share good music with people and now that I've been dedicating more time to finding music, why not dedicate a little more time to blogging about it. Lets see how long this lasts.

Set Sail - The Boat Song (Video)

Australian indie pop band, Set Sail, released this track from their latest offering, The Riley Moore EP. It's only $1 for 4 tracks including this magical delight above. The track is free if you sign up for their mailing list via facebook, however, no tengo un facebook. So I splurged and spent the dollar to get mine. Purchase the Riley Moore EP at Set Sail's BandCamp page.

Lady Danville - Better Side (Video)

The indie-pop trio from L.A. has some new visuals from their Operating EP. The EP is 3 songs but totally worth every penny. Can't wait for an album from these guys. Their EP is available now on iTunes.

Lupe Fiasco - ...And He Gets The Girl

This isn't a new song by any means, matter fact, it's actually a pre F&L track. I mentioned this track to my friend and he brought it to my attention that he had never heard it. Then I thought, "what if others haven't heard it? I must go forth into the world and share this magical musical masterpiece!" Ok, so maybe it didn't go down exactly like that, but you get the idea. Anyways, enjoy. (Side Note: If you're having trouble placing what track he's using, it's N.E.R.D.'s "Maybe" track off of "Fly or Die")

Kindness - Gee Up (Video)

UK artist, Kindness is getting ready to release his debut album, "World, You Need A Change Of Mind" on 3/19/12. "Gee Up" was actually released a couple of years ago but Kindness recently re-released the video as an extended cut. The track itself is only about 1:47 and honestly has to be one of the most addictive/infectious songs I've ever heard. I must have played the track about 10 times just looking up info on the artist (which seems to be scarce).
