Imagine being born with wings yet choosing not to fly. These searching, compression soaked half-arpeggiates from Virginia producer Annu retch the upward thrust whilst never truly soaring. The Def Vibrations record is out through his hometown’s Chocolate Milk now.

The crystal clouds of Deep Sht’s Weird You EP have finally drifted close enough to catch us all in their heavy rainfall. It’s out now - buy a copy direct on 7″ or digital here.
Find a dream-goading and gently exhilarating new track from crestfallen London flaneur Tom Watson below.
“Tremendous Garageband-gaze ephemera… fizzy, scuzz-smeared noise pop that’s abstract, littered with blissfully intangible pop dynamics and somehow still manages to rock.”

MP3: Deep Sht - Sidetripping
Sun on the run
Relax your shoulders. Pull the top edge of both ears forwards. Furrow your brow, then lift your cheeks so they close your eyes before your eyelids do, then stretch your chin down as far as it’ll go. Stay stuck, then move side-to-side in time with the second hand on your clock. You are now appropriate for Weekend’s ‘Youth Haunts’, a stunning, doomed darkness on the B-side of All American, a 10″ forthcoming through the mighty Mexican Summer.

Too uncool for school? There are only three things we know about Cloud Nothings, pictured above. The first is that they’ve been kicked out of every educational institution they’ve ever been enlisted in for playing truant. The second is that their lo-fi is better than your lo-fi. The third is that you can get at that lo-fi on a CD out before month’s end through the Californian heroes of Bridgetown Records.
MP3: Cloud Nothings - Hey Cool Kid
