FACT Mag debuts full stream of Relaxation Tape

/

Total Unicorn welcome the release of their fantastic Relaxation Tape today with a full stream of the album up on FACT Mag. Check it out HERE.

"It has elements of mediation music — breathing instruction, new age soundscapes, and nature sounds — but they’re all processed through the Austin group’s bizarre knack for electronic instrumentation."

Total Unicorn premiere "Whole Lot of Lourve" with Austin Town Hall

/

Local love today for Total Unicorn in the form of this track premiere over at Austin Town Hall. 

"There’s musical nods to EDM, electronica, hip-hop and even touches of operatic indie rock; you’ve got to take your hats off to the group’s ability to incorporate so much into their music, yet still make it accessible to pop fans. It’s, dare I say, the “total” package, musically speaking."

Jenny Gillespie announces "Cure For Dreaming" LP

/

January 29, 2016 will see the release of the newest offering from Jenny Gillespie, an LP entitled Cure for Dreaming, but today Baeble Music has shared the first single "No Stone" (Soundcloud). 

"With a stirring mix of the vocal melodrama of Fiona Apple and the piano pop-rock theatrics of Elton John, Jenny Gillespie anchors a contemplative meditation on the transformative nature of romance with her sinuous voice and a gorgeous but unconventional piano melody."

“We set out to make a video similar to the one for ‘We Built This City’ by Jefferson Starship, but less shitty," states Christina B of Starlight Girls, who created the video below for their single "Fancy". The Brooklyn band's debut full-length is out January 15 and PopMatters boasts "its blend of classic pop, disco, and modern synthpop is so ebullient it’ll be hard to ignore."

Swahili Blonde share first single from upcoming full-length

/

January 22, 2016 will see the release of a brand new full-length from LA's Swahili Blonde and today, AudioFemme has shared the first single from the album. 

“'The Diamond Room' starts out with an ethereal electronic drum line perfectly complemented by Turley’s fluttery, rousing soprano vocals. Unconventionally structured, the song is comprised of two alternating choruses, one which feels sweet and playful like a childhood lullaby and the other darker in melody, and a more sinister in conceit, with Turley describing being in a dream in which the protagonists are 'not what they seem' – both spooky and compelling, right in time for the Halloween season."
