Wildcat! Wildcat! - Mr. Quiche/End Of The World Everyday

Jesse Taylor, Michael Wilson, and Jesse Carmichael have known each other and made music together since they were 14 years old. This recent collaboration called Wildcat! Wildcat! exemplifies quality taste, sexy beats, and beautiful thoughtfulness in songwriting.

Unfortunately the above blurb is all we can tell you about LA band Wildcat! Wildcat!
Despite the lack of info however, this is certainly no band to be ignored. Their blend of indie rock vibes, synth textures, and infectious vocal lines makes tracks like 'Mr. Quiche' and 'End Of The World Everyday', not just some of the best, but also some of the most inventive indie music i've heard in recent months. What's more, the band are currently offering their music for FREE via Bandcamp and Soundcloud.
Grab these two tracks asap and keep an eye out for more from Wildcat! Wildcat! It's been a long time since I've encountered an indie band that really get me excited about music....I see big things ahead for them.

DUNES - You Again

It's always nice to receive audio treats via the email inbox. We get a real mix, it's not always brilliant and alot of stuff doesn't quite make it onto the HotBox. However, every now and then we get a real gem, an instant classic, a hooky masterpiece.....
On that note, allow me to introduce DUNES a House/Garage/Bass producer from Brooklyn who's making some seriously vibey tunes. His latest FREE release, 'You Again' is inescapably smooth, with sweet vocals, rolling bass and tight production all round. This is chilled, minimal house at it's very best, sure to get your feet shuffling and so cool it could make James Dean blush.
If you've got that house craving, then you need this track, no question. Grab it now here and start grooving. DUNES is clearly one to keep and eye on, watch that space...

Stikkman - Rhodes

The future garage scene is arguably becoming repetitive, im constantly asked what's so inventive about R&B vocal samples, vague ambient synths and 2step rhythms?
Il let Cambridge's Stikkman answer the question.....yes this tune contains all of the above, but also so much more. It's the careful arrangement of these elements, combined with old school trumpets and dubby reverbs that creates something special. It's not brand new, and it doesn't have to be....what's important are the grooves and the vibes that the track so effortlessly conveys....and all from a kid barely out of his teens. Check the preview and d/l link below.
