Memory Tapes – House On Fire
Carpark Records artist Memory Tapes come chill and contemplative with “House On Fire.” Things start off vaguely Radiohead-esque with Brian Eno synths that lead to a heavenly-spun guitar. This leads into distant singing that sounds hopeful but a bit sad.
Tokyo Daimo – Energy
Tokyo Daimo drops bar after bar on this new Drake freestyle. Endless double entendre…Expect something new from the NE DC rapper every week.
Lower Dens – To Die In L.A. (Video)
Baltimore-bred Indie darlings Lower Dens gained major attention after their 2012 album Nootropics. After a large gap, the band is soon coming back with a new album, Escape From Evil. Directed by Cody Critcheloe, the song (and video) for “To Die In L.A.” stays true to the same themes, starring Actually Huizenga and Jana Hunter in a short, wild and eerily absurd visual.
