Unknown Mortal Orchestra: American Guilt

The new track by NZ band Unknown Mortal Orchestra, “American Guilt,” is a little more psychedelic than what’s found on their previous album. Seemingly recorded in a lo-fi manner, with plenty of fuzzed vocals and distorted guitar, the tune is crunchy and raw in the best possible way. UMO has also announced a comprehensive USA and Europe tour beginning in April.

Sam Gouthro: Down For This

San Diego-based DJ/producer Sam Gouthro (who is signed to Majestic Casual Records) released the very mellow “Down For This” late last year and it’s been playing on the CH office speakers non-stop. The tune combines elements of soul, funk, jazz and more, and the result is a cruise-y little groove that begs for repeat listens.

SG Lewis feat. J Warner: Aura

London-based DJ and producer SG Lewis is fast becoming a CH favorite, thanks to his atmospheric and laid-back style. His latest collaboration, with J Warner, “Aura” blends dance and soul seamlessly and the result is a funky dance floor-ready track that boasts glittery production.
