Heatflow is really pleased to bring you the new single from NDKj. This is an amazing dancefloor killer,track. This tech-house track is 100% NDKj's style. Listen to the vocals, they will drive you crazy. It kinda sounds like they sampled Kid Cudi vocals from his track 'That Tree'.
The Internet is an R&B faction composed of Odd Future masterminds Syd The Kyd and Matt Martians. Little Dragon is this year’s hottest Swede-electro duo. Together on this refit of “Cocaine” — they become one thing: trippy, twinkly, trip-hop-leaning, slippery, creepy pop gods. A nice tease for The Internet’s debut, dropping at the end of this month.

The track not only boasts spot-on instrumentation but guest appearances from fellow DFA artists Nancy Whang of LCD Soundsystem and Juan Maclean.
Here is the latest visual by Girl is Tough. 'GOOD TIMES' is their latest video off of their EP Key Transpose Vol 2. I was an instant fan from the first time I heard GIT. Their retro sound and style takes me back down memory lane. This video depicts perfectly what I'm talking about, from the watches I used to wear to the video games I used to play!
I do have one question though. Was that the Spice Girls instant Polaroid camera circa 1996 at 0:41 seconds?
You can download their tracks straight from their bandcamp (or below) in exchange for an Email address. Not a bad deal at all!
Here is the new release by label Coco Machete Records. This time Markus Lange & Vanilla drop some serious heat as Ostblockschlampen, or Bitches from Ostblock. There’s a set of remixes from the who’s who of upstart producers and a great video shot on location in Moscow...check it out!!!
