Tongues : Joywaves
I first encountered Joywave during a particularly long drought of new artists to listen to. I was immediately drawn in by the amazing music video for this song and their fresh hyper sound. The first and only album - How Do You Feel Now? - blurs the boundaries between many different genres, and presents an eclectic, high energy collection of songs that can be enjoyed in many different moods. From straight up hard rock to new indie electronica, it;s got it all. Really waiting to see where they go from here for their second album.

The Wilhelm Scream : James Blake
Wait! Before you listen to this, put on a pair of good earphones, or you might just miss the point of this song completely. As an artist, it sometimes becomes very hard to judge whether a song can work outside of your head at all. I can only imagine what went through James Blake's mind while writing and creating this track. The song has an amazing ability to keep you hooked just by the production quality it flexes. It's kind of the song that makes you wonder about where songwriting ends and production begins. The entire album - a self titled debut - is a tad taxing to listen to, but the more you concentrate on listening to it, the more it will reward you. I honestly think anyone making electronic music should hear this album at least once in their lifetime.
Thank you so much Tanisha! :)
