ALOHA! by RAD FRNDS Diarrhea Planet don’t suck nearly as much as their name does. Their debut EP ALOHA! was released as a 7″ earlier this year on Evil Weevil Records, and is filled with joyful, life-affirming power pop with a lo-fi edge. Most of its songs don’t
On the first track to drop from Bjork’s forthcoming album, Biophilia, the Icelandic singer-songwriter just doesn’t do a lot for me, honestly. I was pretty excited about this track, too. It’s certainly got all the makings of a great Bjork track–some strong vocals and personality, ear-grabbing

On SBTRKT’s self-titled debut, this London-based producer cooks up a solid set of dubstep songs; icing them with some pretty soulful vocals from Sampha.

MP3 To celebrate hitting 500K Twitter followers, Mac Miller released this new track featuring Talib Kweli. I’m not in love with everything the dude does, but I really like this track. It’s got a chill beat produced by Like, and tells a story of the awkward growing phase
