Overdue by Circuit des Yeux Be sure to check out this latest album from Chicago-based singer-songwriter Haley Fohr (a.k.a. Circuit Des Yeux). Overdue is her most expansive effort to date, with Fohr bringing in quite a few additional musicians to bring some structure and finesse to her swirling,

Australian producer Flume just released a commercial mixtape where he featured a slew of different singers and rappers, so he’s obviously works well with others. His next project consists of several tracks hammered out with a collaborator from his recent past, Chet Faker. The title: Lockjaw EP. It’s

Singer-songwriter Angel Olsen goes electric and heavy on this new track from her forthcoming record, which is set to drop via Jagjaguwar on February 18th! The title of this thing: Burn Your Fire For No Witness. While I’m not huge on this mid-paced, slightly lo-fi garage rock sound, Angel’
