While the original "Love Insurrection" was in and of itself a trippy, funky feather in Primal Scream's cap, Black Science Orchestra's take is a welcome, nostalgic trip back to the sounds that brought both artists to the fore. More than that, it's also proof that regardless of disparities in time or genre, there's something irresistible at the core of Primal Scream's sound that is immediately and distinctly theirs from iteration to iteration.

Canadian DIY darlings Men I Trust made a name for themselves in the indie scene with their unique blend of dreamy, groove-laden pop. Oftentimes in the band's press it seems that former characteristic of their music eclipses the latter in recognition, but "Tailwhip" is proof positive that their sense for for crafting an infectious rhythm is just as keen as their knack for generating the spacious atmospheres those rhythms occupy.

"Loser" has something of a western feel to it under the hood, characterized by a steady, almost statically insistent groove and punctuated with deliberate rhythmic strikes a la Parker's recent hit "Borderline."
...Gabriel's effort is both topically and musically meditative, calling attention to the mechanical complexity and humanitarian pathos of the matter at hand without devolving into the paranoia that often accompanies artistic appraisals of the looming specter of the digital future.
"Hymn to Virgil" mines elements from almost as many musical idioms as its source material did characters from classical myth. It evokes a cavernous yet dense atmosphere thick as an arboreal mist and heavy as six feet of soil, and from that fertile sonic ground springs something that sounds like indie folk gone dark pop gone movie score.
Los Angeles based band The Marias bring you a beautiful lofi-chill track “Calling You Back” that’s just dripping with elements...
