Music reviews, news, opinions + more
Almost two months ago, Teengirl Fantasy made the announcement for their second album, Tracer (R&S/True Panther Sounds), and now they’re revealing a track for all to hear. This sounds like incidental/soundtrack music from the 80′s, but perfected. There’s someone more to this that I like, but I want to hear how this pieces in with the rest of it.
If you saw him approaching you like this, would you give him a high five? After reading this, you may give him ten. As Deacon prepares to release his America album next month, he’s sharing a few tracks from it for you to get deep in. “True Thrush” is the single from the album, with artwork that shows a “double shaka”.
You may stream it here.

You may have seen Cut Chemist‘s “Outro (Revisited)“, but have you heard the (Dub) (Version)? Those who bought the 45 and 12″ will be familiar with the song, but if you haven’t heard it, it’s basically a flip of the flip. In other words, “Outro (Dub)” is the B-side and is a dub mix where things are turned into something new. Renewed? (Yes).
If you’ve become a fan of ‘s latest album Laviz (Lentonia), you’ll want to take that experience a bit further with this Subtitle remix of “Ramble”. Take a listen and if you like it, you can have it, as it is being made available as a free download.
Fresh Heir have a track they’d like to share with everyone. Need an incentive? This one features FlareTha Rebel of Anti-Crew. Nice, right? Well… I know, you haven’t heard it yet but you can now. Like it enough, download it for free.
Signals Midwest fans will love this news: they are heading on tour beginning this Friday in Kalamazoo, Michigan. They are touring in support of their Tiny Engines Records album, Latitudes And Longitudes, and now fans both old and new will be able to see and hear these songs in a live setting.
