The Weeknd - Demos/Unreleased


Unreleased The Weeknd by k.niteh (via Pitchfork)

Rolling Stone


The posting exceptions keep coming today. In fact I'm seriously re-appraising what I'll cover here now that Soundcloud/YouTube links are seemingly more prevelant for even the 'obscurer' musical side of things, which means there's more scope to share the music I love and recommend rather than simply telling you what it sounds like.

So, to the matter in hand. Toronto's laid back sex/love ethereal, music makers The Weeknd, hot on the heels of the 'net released 'House of Balloons EP' and things blowing up big style on the back of 'High For This' in general have a batch of demos and unreleased tracks (until now) available to stream/listen - look up there. Press play. Easy peasy.

Holy Other - With U EP



Ordinarily it's albums or live shows that get covered here. Occasional exceptions to this rule are made however and I can't think of better exception right now that the debut EP of Manchester based Holy Other who having wowed earlier in the year is about to see his debut EP drop on Tri Angle Records, June 7th.

Listen. This is what music should sound like!
