'Eruption...' is the first single released from his forthcoming new album called 'Ultima II Massage' which will be released May 13th on the Ghostly International label. The single itself is available now on iTunes.
'Eruption (Gonna Get My Hair Cut At The End Of The Summer)' is a badass pop song doused in old school keyboards and psychedelic sounds... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Music! Audion - 'Motormouth' (Original Mix)
Audion has just released a new single called 'Motormouth'! 'Motormouth' is a one track single released on the Spectral Sound label and it's currently available exclusively on Beatport: http://www.beatport.com/release/motormouth/1182901
'Motormouth' is released hot on the heels of Matthew Dear's collaboration with Tiga on 'Let's Go Dancing' (for which a new remix EP is released next week). That song is pretty massive, but 'Motormouth' just might be even bigger - it's blissful mayhem... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Beacon - 'Feeling's Gone'
Beacon are an electronic duo from Brooklyn consisting of Thomas Mullarney III and Jacob Gossett - who've just released a new song online called 'Feelings Gone'! 'Feeling's Gone' is a track on the band's forthcoming second EP called 'For Now', that will feature five tracks and will be released on the Ghostly International label on October 2nd. You can keep up with news on the band on Facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/beaconband
'Feeling's Gone' is a wonderful electronic journey that seemed an epic eight or nine minutes long when I first listened to it - but it's surprisingly just over three minutes long. It's a definite credit to the song that it's able to transport you so far away in such a short time. A song that opens with the lines 'Feeling's Gone' isn't likely to be an upbeat tune lyrically speaking (and that's fine anyway - depth is good) but at the same time the music is so dreamy that it whisks you away happily.
'Feeling's Gone' also features a synth bassline that's reminiscent of Orbital's classic 'Halcyon + On + On' (which you can revisit m'here: http://summersradio.blogspot.ca/2010/12/summersradio-classic-orbital.html) and includes numerous tempo changes and tidal waves of sound that all add to it's perceived length.
Like yesterday's post from Chrome Sparks, Beacon's 'Feeling's Gone' is a great song to get lost in... Enjoy!
SummersRadio™ New Music + Bonus Tracks! School Of Seven Bells - 'Kiss Them For Me'/ Siouxsie and the Banshees - 'Kiss Them For Me' (Kathak #2 Mix)/ Siousxie and the Banshees vs Chemical Brothers - 'Come With Us'/ Kiss Them For Me' (Kathak #2 Mix)
School Of Seven Bells have just released their new single online - a cover of Siouxsie and the Banshees 'Kiss The For Me'! Although not featured on their latest album 'Ghostory' which was released in February on the Ghostly International label, the song has been a staple of their live shows. It was officially released as a limited 7" single for Record Store Day on the weekend - and it's now available on itunes as well.
'Kiss Them For Me' was originally released as the first single from Siouxsie and the Banshee's album 'Superstition' in 1991. This is a really good cover - it's quite faithful to the original in overall structure - but with the addition of newer industrial tinged electronics... Enjoy!
Bonus Track! Siouxsie and the Banshees - 'Kiss Them For Me' (Kathak #2 Mix) This is one of the remixes from the original 1991 North American cd single by Youth... Enjoy!
Bonus Track #2!Siouxsie and the Banshees vs Chemical Brothers - 'Come With Us'/ 'Kiss Them For Me' (Kathak Mix #2) I just came across this unlikely mashup for the first time today and I was surprisingly blown away by how well it works. I don't have any further information at this time about who did the mashup other than his or her name on Youtube is TheGSST... Enjoy!

Vancouver's Teen Daze has also just released his latest EP on itunes this week! The new EP is called 'A Silent Planet' and it was partially inspired by the C.S. Lewis novel 'Out Of The Silent Planet'. The EP explores some new sounds for Teen Daze and features six very lush, rather ambient new tracks - and it's out now on the Waaga Records label.
My favorite track so far is track 2 - the dreamy 'It Calls Me Under'. You can listen to the entire EP right here - simply click on the arrows to change tracks - Enjoy!
