PREMIERE: Tours - “Grand Lux”
Here’s the accompanying found footage video for Philadelphia’s Tours and his stunning new beat “Grand Lux”. The video features edited footage from the 1979 film Sam’s Song alongside some beautiful surf shots. The beach with De Niro, ’70s nostalgia, general fun-in-the-sun—sounds about right. Grab the track over at Young Latitudes’ Bandcamp.

VELVET SUNSET
Matlock’s Armeria (a.k.a Jake Norman) is proof that the British have a solid track record for churning out solid beats. “Why’d You Have to Go” is another apt example that makes pitch-shifted vocals infused with dreamy r&b flavours and chilled beats seem effortless to achieve. It’s another appropriately smooth jam to mellow-out your night with, at least that’s what we’re going to be doing. Head on over to Armeria’s Soundcloud to keep tabs on this more than promising producer.

Premiere: Hazy Mountains - “Reach Out”
Germany’s Hazy Mountains returns with another EP effort and we’re happy to help premiere it by featuring one of the many exceptional cuts on the release called “Reach Out”. Julian Prott yet again brings forth his production skills in this piece, driving forward an enveloping soundscape built of lavish synth work and beautifully reverbed vocals which are submerged into the gorgeous sonic mass. Yet another breathtaking electronic masterpiece here. You can grab this track down below and find it alongside 5 other similarly gorgeous pieces on the new EP Lapis Lazuli which is available over at Bandcamp and Soundcloud.

TOKYO GHOST
Here’s an absolutely gorgeous dream-pop cut titled “Tokyo Ghost” from Philippines’ Maze Mountain (a.k.a. Idris Vicuña). The track shines with a dreamy ’80s veneer and synth pulse, showing pure quality at face value but underlying it all is a drowsily somber yearning and it’s enough to intrigue us. Perhaps it’s the slow and sticky beats that hit hard or the ghostly synths floating around in the background that add a dark and mysterious edge. Hey, we won’t overthink think it. Whatever it is, it’s working. Grab it over at Soundcloud or Bandcamp.
