Bonobo - Black Sands

It seems to me, all the best music is coming from the UK nowadays.  Bonobo, known for his complex basslines,  is no exception to this truth.  In his album, Black Sands, Bonobo uses a collection of instruments to provide a treatise for any set of ears.  Make sure to put this one on you rainy day playlist.

Neon Indian - Polish Girl

Neon Indian, from Denton, TX, is an electronic duo who released this song a couple months ago. "Polish Girl" is off of their second album, Era Extraña, and it features a dark, love-story. The lyrics make their way over some heavy synth lines which adds to the atmosphere of the track. Give it a listen and let us know what you think.

Coldplay - Shiver

With Coldplay dropping their 5th studio album, Mylo Xyloto, just the other day; I decided to share one of my all-time favorite Coldplay songs. "Shiver," is off of their 2nd album, Parachutes, it is essentially a love song with a catchy guitar-riffed chorus blends perfectly with Chris Martin's voice. Give it a listen, it's relaxing and the lyrics will leave you something to think about.

pg.lost - Fartyget

pg.lost, a post-rock band from Sweden , that sounds similar to an early, Explosions in the Sky, but incorporates a few more instruments into their music. This song is simplistic, but full of emotion that eventually bursts towards the end of the track. This is perfect for just relaxing, doing some homework, or turned down low to fall asleep to. Let us know what you think of pg.lost and the track "Fartyget."

Frank Ocean - Swim Good

One of my favorite Frank Ocean tracks, "Swim Good," features some great lyrics, a catchy hook, and a beat that makes you actually appreciate your sub-woofer. Frank dropped some visuals for this track, which are pretty sick, as well. With Mr. Ocean's recent work on Kanye and Jay-Z's, Watch the Throne, I think it's pretty safe to say that big things are coming from him soon.
