Neon Indian

With what started as a bedroom project under alter ego VEGA, chillwave scene leader Neon Indian has just dropped new single, "Sleep Paralysist" through Mountain Dew's Green Label Sound imprint.

The Ruby Suns

The Ruby Suns are a California born but New Zealand based indie band signed to Sub Pop Records. The band just released second album, Fight Softly, yesterday, describing it in their bio as "the kind of head-spinning combination of big-picture vision and sumptuous detail that only comes from an artist with an urgent need to express all the stuff he’s seen. And you can dance to it!" I think that just about sums it up.

Holy Ghost! give Friendly Fires track, "On Board" a make over with a fresh new cover. The track is from the two's forthcoming 12" split out March 8th via XL/DFA. We're loving the touches that Holy Ghosts made to the track and generally enjoy this sort of band collaboration. Right on!
