WhistleJacket
WhistleJacket is some band or dude from London making beautiful droney shoegaze inspired sounds all minimal and rudimentary, full of psychedelia and guitar loving wonder. Post punk lost beneath a wave of reverb and warm muffled joy.

URRRGH
I wrote about URRRGH in January of this year, and having revisited his Soundcloud I see there are a whole lot of new tracks up, really good, really mellow minimal barely there RnB ambient stuff, slow low and ponderous and damn beautiful. Pop melodies creeping out of confidently restrained beats and soundscapes, feeling somehow scandivain in a Fever Ray styley. The track Encarta is especially killer. Lots of the tracks on his Soundcloud are free to download so grab them.

Dux Content
Discordant 8 bit free jazz rave sounds from Dux Content, this feels like two opposing early 90's computer games got mashed together over someone improvising on a keyboard, but yet it still sounds good. A tough one. There are a few free downloads to be had from their Soundcloud go check it all out here.
NSFW - Kincy Orties | Bruno (Cover Doc Gyneco "Vanessa")

VV Ξ H Λ V Ξ P Λ Я † Y @ H Λ U N † Ξ D P L Λ C Ξ S
BLACK RAINBOVV has been around since the beginning of Witch House way back when, coining a mysterious catchphrase of "VV Ξ H Λ V Ξ P Λ Я † Y @ H Λ U N † Ξ D P L Λ C Ξ S " But BLACK RAINBOVV has always been making a slowed down and sampled up goth rave sound all of his own, part RnB, part Disco, part end of the world. Totally brilliant unique and genius in its remixing. So finally there is a full collected version of his tracks all up on Bandcamp and they're free to download.
FEEL THE DRIP by PrismViews
PrismViews full length album.. "Feel The Drip" is a multi genre pillaging record taking all it needs and wants from Witch House, post trance, 8 bit, shoe-gaze, lo-fi electronica and essentially electroclash.. its ecclesiasticism and free form sound combines to great effect though and as a full body of work becomes a great sounding album. Stand out tracks below. Download for free from Bandcamp.

Unoknwn
Describing music with genre-specific terms is fraught with difficulty and pitfalls that people are all to willing to jump all over you for, so sometimes its hard to describe a genre or a sound an artist is making other than to say it fucking slays.. and Unoknwn fucking slays. I'm not going to label this sound other than to say its too current and way future. Blam, have it!
Missetsu by Spf50
I've drunk a lot of coffee this morning and maybe I'm a bit spaced right now but this new track by the usually quite abrasive Spf5Ø is just the most dreamy glo-fi trance shit ever, its just the most celestial orbiting drifty happy ambience. So good. Free to download from the Soundcloud player below.

Ellie Herring - Mend The Angle - EP
Ellie Herring has a new EP out called Mend The Angle.. it very good, so very very good. I spent this morning listening to that Will.i.am and Britney single a bit too much and then went over to listen to this EP and the production is just seamless, so well done and so ahead of some imagined curve, brilliant. Slow rave hip hop with a real pop dance vibe. Track two is especially ace. Th EP is all available to download for free from the Soundcloud player below. Blam!

ENIX INRI

РΣ▲ϾΣ ⱧΣȊL
РΣ▲ϾΣ ⱧΣȊL★ is one Andrew Cocain from New Zealand, making drag and screwed hip-hopa dn with house style tracks, remixes and re-edits, all doped up and blissfully tempo reduced into a cacophony of echo and delay washing up and out into blissed out chillwave sounds and seapunk intonations.

Phantom Forest EP by Pang Attack
Pang Attack is the band and when the guitar hits on that first track of their Phantom Forest EP, you will find it hard not to fall in love with this sound, then as the singular piano notes chime and the vocals arrive it just cements it all so much more. Melodic and beautiful, harmonies and electronica blending with instruments and ambience. Properly good. Its free to download from Bandcamp and you would be a fool to let it slip by.
Hollow Press
Ambient soundscape, noise and drone from Hollow Press and their new LP "Between Us" out on the Drug Arts label. Its good, you should go download it for $3 here. Oh and the album cover looks like fisting....

டாண்டலாஸ்o
Tumblr couture beats and deep emotionally rich synth moods conjoined in horror stroking and lapping at each other with gay abandon. Essentially its just one long wicked riff, smoothly dirging along through the 3 minutes 44 seconds, creating a droning majestic wonder of a track that you can download for free from டாண்டலாஸ்o aka Frank A Mente's Soundcloud.

NO TASTE
This is what this blog is for, coming across artists like this who are on nobody's radar but are better than half the shit out there. No Taste is someone whose Soundcloud proclaims "I DONT IRL" And his music slays, a distillation of front of the wave meme sounding electronica and killer creativity, slow down-beat mixed with instrumental hip hop intonations through to raved up ghostly inferences. This is URL all the way, total post ironic, 3.0, go download the free tracks from Soundcloud.

Raindeer
Raindeer extol that sort of indie that MGMT nailed down and was started by The Flaming Lips, that Arcade Fire and Yeasayer explored all imagined by Fleetwood Mac way back when. It's a sound that lilts beautiful promises across the morning dew soaked air, telling tales of lives un-fuddled by money worries, age or reality, a dreamlike adventure in primal emotion and wonder, astral projections of musical exuberance somehow filtering through to reality. And they have an album you can download for free!
