Milky Chance - Flashed Junk Mind

And now for a post from obscurity. Essentially this track was Kid CuDi's "Pursuit of Happiness" (Steve Aoki Remix) meets Indie-Folk/Pop. Off of Milky's debut album, Sadnecessary which is available on iTunes and Amazon at the moment, "Flashed Junk Mind" is one of those songs you know will stick with you for the rest of your life and reflect a combination of everything you loved in the past and everything you may hope to obtain again. I could barely find any info about this artist but it appears he's based out of Germany and damn it if he doesn't make some awesome music. Buy this track HERE.

Pear Shape - Carousel

More music from Australia? Of course. They just know how to make great music. Pear Shape brings us an upbeat and happy (notice a pattern hear) track that will easily make any summer playlist. Make sure you check this one out!

Robyn - Dancing On My Own

Honestly, my first thought when I heard this song was "Drive Soundtrack." This track should have been on the Drive OST. Swedish Pop star, Robyn, brings an updated 80's Electro sound that seems like the perfect type of song to ride around at night to. When she drops an album, she's got my money.

Parade of Lights - We're the Kids

This was my first time hearing a track from the L.A. based band, Parade of Lights. This track seems to be one of the next songs to really be a hit with anybody who was a fan of .Fun or MGMT. They've essentially crafted one of the better Pop songs infused with a ton of awesome electronic elements and a catchy chorus that you can totally see a crowd of people singing every word to. I'm a sucker for music like this and they will most likely have found a customer for life.

The Neighbourhood - No Grey

Last May, I came across a little band called The Neighbourhood who had one song on their soundcloud, "Sweater Weather". Fast forward a year and it seems like everybody and their mom has heard that song. Well guess what. Bet you haven't heard "No Grey" because they just released this track like 2 days ago. Pretty dope song that fulfills expectations of a new track from The Neighbourhood. Make sure you either pick up their LP or their EP. 

Gentlemen Hall - Sail into the Sun (RAC Mix)

This track is one of those "Perfect for Summer" tracks. RAC does a wonderful job of capitalizing on an already wonderful track from the indie band out of Boston and adding a layer of chill to it. Plus, FREE DOWNLOAD! Who doesn't like those?!?

Goldroom - Only You Can Show Me ft. Mereki

Goldroom has been an artist I've been super excited to hear new music from since last May. This song is every reason why I would be excited. Teaming up with Mereki, Goldroom brings us a feel good Nu-Disco/Indie Pop/Electro/Whatever you want to call good music track in "Only You Can Show Me". There's a little bit of a build up at the beginning but once you're in it, you're in it. Make sure to keep an eye on Goldroom in 2013.

Rilo Kiley - Breakin' Up (Unofficial Video)

Totally random. Maybe. Still awesome though. I was going through and re-listening to Rilo Kiley's 2007 Under the Blacklight album and this was definitely the song that jumped out at me. Just thought I'd share some of this awesomeness with you. Sorry about the unofficial video. Buy the track HERE.

French Horn Rebellion - Dancing Out ft. Jody Watley & Young Empires

This track comes from a a pair of brothers from where? That's right, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Weren't expecting that were you? These two brothers crafted a pretty wonderful upbeat track with the help of Jody Watley & Young Empires. Now based out of Brooklyn (naturally), these guys are looking to make a major impact on the Electro-Pop scene.

Sunni Colón - 五 Karma

This track was my introduction to Sunni Colón and he really made one hell of a first impression. Everything that we were initially excited for when we first heard artists like Drake and Frank Ocean, Sunni seems to not only embrace it, but also completely re-brands it as his own sound. I don't know where this guy has been but I know where he's going; right into the hearts of bloggers and listeners everywhere. Corny? Maybe. That doesn't make it false.

Fyfe - Conversations

I've made it no secret that I have an affinity for the London music scene. Artists like Fyfe are exactly the reason why. "Conversations" sees the young artist effortlessly blending genres and starkly contrasting vocals to provide one the more unique and captivating songs of the year. The only other song that seemed to do anything similar was Jai Paul's BTSTU track from last year. No word yet on an album but we'll be eagerly waiting.

The Aston Shuffle - Can't Stop Now

The duo from Australia dropped their first single "Can't Stop Now" off of their upcoming sophomore album. This track is really Electronic/Pop music in all it's glory. This song will have to end up in a commercial or movie or something. Make sure you check it out!

Walla - Nature

I have a very specific type of woman. Ideally she's 5'3", Long brown hair, slender face, and weighs about 97-102 lbs. If a girl fits into this category, there's almost no shot of me not being attracted to her. This is musical equivalent to my type of woman. There was no way I was going to hear this and not like it. This was suppose to be the title track of their latest EP and it was suppose to be released June 4, 2013 however, it was delayed. Until then, enjoy this awesome track.

Denitia and Sene - the nude.

Another artist I was happy to continuing to put out awesome music was Sene. Aside from is sweet solo FreeLP (Reality Bites) and his collaborative effort (Recess), it would appear that Sene has been teaming up with Denitia to release "His and Hers". It's hard to believe that an artist with this much talent and this much range would still be so overlooked. I imagine that will all change this year if he keeps putting out music like this.

ScienZe - Charlie Brown ft. Blu (Prod. By EOM)

Brooklyn's ScienZe just teamed up with the always impressive Blu for his latest offering, Charlie Brown. This track will be on his upcoming "Ella" project dropping July 9. EOM is responsible for the great beat but this is the first time I've heard anything from him. Can't wait to hear more. It's nice to hear ScienZe continuing to develop and grow as an artist.
