We’ve reached the end of another crazy two weeks in music. Have a look below for the ten hand-picked and absolutely free musical treats that caught our eyes and ears in our inboxes and on the web this month.
Mogwai are due to release another fantastically titled album next year, they’re offering to make the wait a little easier with the take on Yuck’s latest single Rubber. Elliott Smith was recently introduced to some and re-introduced to countless more, but see below for a cut that didn’t make the latest compilation but, as with many Elliott Smith songs, simply must be heard. Dels‘ emotive hip-hop is enhanced by warm production courtesy of Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard, and similarly, Keep Shelly In Athens‘ Running Out Of You gets given a huge injection of melancholy via one of Memory Tapes‘ infamous full re-imaginations.
Writers of some of the best music on Habitat’s Mosaic, The Greenhornes have offered up a new track, Song 13 for listeners to grab. There is another select choice from Simian Mobile Disco’s Delicacies range, some smoke-smothered rhymes from Wiz Khalifa, freshness from Cold War Kids and a new remix of Flying Lotus to wrap your head around. Crossfader subjects C.R.S.T. have also posted a bubbler in the form of a remix of the BBC’s United Nations Theme. Huge!
