Front Page ‎- You Got My Love

A: Front Page ‎
S: You Got My Love

Disco was my first love - might not be that true, but what's wrong with bending the truth every now and then if it makes perfect sense. Here to funk the fcuk out of your weekend is this dancefloor stomper. See you there.

... steal my loving.

PORTISHEAD – SOS (ABBA COVER)

A: PORTISHEAD
S: SOS (ABBA COVER)

Not exactly new, but still going strong and viral: Portishead have turned in a threadbare cover of ABBA's infectious hit "SOS," marking their first new recording since 2009's charity single, Chase the Tear.

... but you have closed your mind.

Azealia Banks - The Big Big Beat

A: Azealia Banks
S: The Big Big Beat (Audio)

La Banks unleashed a new dancefloor-ready jam on us. She gets as close to funky as anyone can get who released 212 as her debut, probably making this her second bestest song as in ever.

... looking for love in the strangest places.

Fiona Apple - Not About Love

Fiona Apple - Not about love von samithemenace

A: Fiona Apple
S: Not About Love

You might say if it sound like a Fiona Apple video, looks like a Fiona Apple video and acts like a Fiona Apple video it actually might just be a Fiona Apple video - but what if it is one of Zach Galifianakis funniest moments ever? What if.

... and it doesn't make sense.

Beyoncé - Hold Up

A: Beyoncé
S: Hold Up

Most artist start out independent and raw, becoming more commercially appealing the longer their career last. I guess Queen B isn't most artists, so it might come as no surprise that she walks that path the other way. Finally, I'd say.

... I'd rather be crazy.

Hanna & Kerttu - Black Is Back In Style (Moonface Cover)

A: Hanna & Kerttu
S: Black Is Back In Style (Moonface Cover)

Even though I know there is a brand new episode of Games Of Thrones waiting for me at the end of this Monday, it is still a struggle to pull through. Here to help us is my favorite Swedish duo with a hauntingly beautiful cover song.

... they will come back broken.

Dynasty - Groove Control

A: Dynasty
S: Groove Control

Funk is here to save your Sunday, helping you to control any groove you might encounter. Or, to quote Prince one final time this weekend: You don't have to watch Dynasty to have an attitude.

... do you love?

Prince - Little Red Corvette

A: Prince
S: Little Red Corvette

Let's keep it purple for at least one more day. Next up is my favourite Prince song of all the evers. I wonder how many Djs drop how many Prince songs around the world over this weekend. Because it's beautiful.

... baby you're much too fast.

Prince - Purple Rain

A: Prince
S: Purple Rain

It was the first time in 40 years that it had rained during a Super Bowl.
And it never stopped ...

... can you make it rain harder?

Laura Gibson - Empire Builder

A: Laura Gibson
S: Empire Builder

Traveling at 50 miles per hour, the Empire Builder takes about three days from Portland to New York. Gibson's new record, her fourth and best to date, rumbles along like the train that influenced its creative direction: unhurried, confident, and free.

... hurry up and find me, again.

Cher - The Music's No Good Without You

A: Cher
S: The Music's No Good Without You

There is a very fine line between feeling sad and feeling sorry for yourself. I say fuck that line. Sulking is bliss. Let's sulk. As long as it doesn't turn into a habit, just for today, just for these four minutes.

... come back to me.

Patty Pravo - Pensiero Stupendo

A: Patty Pravo
S: Pensiero Stupendo

Looking back at this stunning performance, one really starts to wonder where it all went wrong. Here'e my conclusion: if the world ended tomorrow, nothing would be lost, because frankly, we lost it a long time ago.

... nasce un poco strisciando.

Future Elevators - Machine Maker

A: Future Elevators
S: Machine Maker

I remember listening to the news and thinking the world is just so fucked up, but at least I’ve got my baby girl. So everything is going to be fine. - Michael Shackelford, Future Elevators mastermind and lead singer.

... why won't you leave us alone?

Hunck - Never Had a Dream

A: Huck
S: Never Had a Dream

Born out of the post-riot depths of Tottenham in 2013, estranged childhood friends reconnected after a series of heartbreaks, losses and unfortunate events to share their love in the gloomier sounds of long dead crooners such as Al Bowlly and Frank Sinatra. Meet Hunck.

... my silence fills another night.

M.I.A. - Rewear It

A: M.I.A.
S: Rehear It

M.I.A. gets environmentally conscious. To raise awareness for H&M’s global initiative World Recycle Week, the British-born superstar has teamed up with the clothing retailer for a new song and video, inviting you to sing along.

... make you scream for the dream.

Suuns - Paralyzer

A: Sound
S: Paralyzer

Hold/Still, the third album from Suuns, is out today and proves, once again, that the hype is real. It's an enigmatic thing, waiting for you to lend it your ears - eerily beautiful, meticulously played suite of music.  

... give everyone a chance.

onDeadWaves - California

A: onDeadWaves
S: California

Folk-pop duo onDeadWaves are, as we speak, in the midst of their breakout. This, their third single, is astonishingly short but pure sunshine rock befitting its name, streamlined pop so well-crafted that it could have spawned in a lab and begging for a rewind. 

... we’re all dead in California.

Tegan & Sara - Boyfriend

A: Tegan & Sara
S: Boyfriend

Everybody's favorite twin sisters are back. Love You to Death, the follow-up to their breakout record Heartthrob, will arrive on June 3rd. The band has already dropped two tracks, one of which is this little gem.

... I need to know the rules if you want me to play.

Dolly Parton - Hands Off My Potential New Boyfriend

A: Dolly Parton
S: Hands Off My Potential New Boyfriend

Here to funk things up on this grey and dull Tuesday is a lady called Dolly. Yes, La Parton isn't just the queen of country, she has also conquered a throne or two in a land far far away called d-i-s-c-o.

... give us some privacy.

HAERTS - Eva

A: HAERTS
S: Eva

HAERTS return with the beautiful and moving new short film POWER/LAND, featuring 3 new songs, including the film’s sweeping, poignant heart and centerpiece, Eva.


... I look in your eyes and I see mine.

Slut - Easy To Love

A: Slut
S: Easy To Love

Remember when German indie music was at its best? When bands like Slut were not only on the top of our hearts but also on the top of the charts? Where did it all go wrong? And why are all my sentences questions today?

... smile away my pain.

Yes I'm Very Tired Now - Shining Light

A: Yes I'm Very Tired Now
S: Shining Light

There are some bands to which you have a personal connection, and then there are even fewer bands you actually know personally. Yes I'm Very Tired Now have just released a third EP, and just like its predecessors, it is captivatingly beautiful.

... yes you are dynamite.

Beyoncé - XO

A: Beyoncé
S: XO

Some unquotable and untagable source told me that this is song is the only time Queen B achieved true greatness when it comes to pop, so I figured I might just drop this on a TFFF (which is short for thank fuck finally Friday).

... we don't have forever,

Crystal Fighters - At Home

A: Crystal Fighters
S: At Home

Love.

... I was running to be by your side.

Josef Salvat - Open Season

A: Josef Salat
S: Open Season

Having written Diamonds for Rihanna, it comes as no surprise that Josef can drop a song that is as easy as catchy. This might just be the first contender for this year's summer hit, admitting it's early, but still.

... we're in this game together.

Billie Marten - Out Of The Black

A: Billie Marten
S: Out Of The Black

Spring is in the air, maybe even love, if you're lucky, or not depending on how you feel about feelings. Either way, I have already found the perfect soundtrack for this year's fall, and it goes something like this.

... you made a fool out of me.

First Hate - White Heroine

S: First Hate 
S: White Heroine

If there is one concept that can sooth a Monday morning into something smooth, my bet is on a band with a name like First Hate. All you have to do is to follow these snake rhythms from Copenhagen into that rabbit hole.

... what is this dark death, opens to light.

The KVB - In Deep

A: The KVB
S: In Deep

Get ready for the return of London/Berlin duo The KVB. Of Desire, their fived album released last Friday, is drenched in the aesthetics of forgotten 80s indie, putting the uuuuh right into music, where it belongs.


... you've been so good to me.

Youth Lagoon - Rotten Human

A: Youth Lagoon
S: Rotten Human

It is songs like this that are to blame for my love of fall, and my dislike for spring. After all, melancholy isn't just the most honest state of mind, but the most comforting feeling out there. And it needs a perfect soundtrack, like this one.

... you want the hours back.

Rolling Stones - She's A Rainbow

A: Rolling Stones
S: She's A Rainbow

From the psychodelic era comes this super hit from the Stones, for your personal super start into this weekend full of spring and grace. If this doesn't get your hormones flowing, I don't know what will. 

... she comes in colors everywhere.
