With Just One Glance by Nicolas Jaar feat. Scout LaRue
The new one from Mr Jaar features a fashionably lazy, slightly ropey vocal from Bruce Willis/Demi Moore sprog Scout LaRue. It kind of works though, right? Do you think she was conceived on the set of The Last Boy Scout?

Cyan by Kindness
Fervent blog followers may have come across this track from London/Berlin based Adam Bainbridge, aka Kindness, towards the end of the summer. The Larry Levan indebted Cyan is now available as a free download via iTunes. Fancy. Check out the suitably set video above. We’d offer you the track directly from the widget below, but Apple/Polydor may kick our butts. Unutterable scaredy cats we are. Debut album World, You Need A Change Of Mind is released March 12th.

Little Racer by Little Racer
This Brooklyn trio bring nothing particularly new or Earth shattering to the table – sun-kissed, ramshackle indie-pop, as those from the borough have become accustomed – but they are tremendous fun, as today’s MPFree aptly demonstrates. Debut single Split for the Coast/The Town is out now on Young and Lost Club.

School of Seven Bells - The Night
School of Seven Bells are back, minus a member, with new album Ghostory, out February 27th on Full Time Hobby. Opening track The Night starts with an intro reminiscent of Disintegration era The Cure, before diving headlong into 80s power-pop heaven. Ahhh…

Wound On My Finger by Soulmates Never Die
Soulmates Never Die // Wound On My Finger from Jennifer Morris on Vimeo.
Leeds’ Joshua Lewis, aka Soulmates Never Die, skilfully avoids the pitfalls of many a DIY, anti-folk musician. His music is knowing without being twee, passionate, not angsty. Wound on My Finger is taken from his debut EP on Cowsnail Records, Dance Contest Winner. He plays the Bull and Gate, Kentish Town tomorrow (Dec 20th).
