Jam of the Day: Exitmusic - "Iowa"

Gorgeously epic indie rock song from Exitmusic, which is probably the most euphoric breakup song you will ever hear. If you are fans of Beach House, you will really fall hard for this duo. Alas, the duo, like their marriage, is splitting up, so this is likely the last music we will hear from them. Check out their new record The Recognitions, which is amazing.

Jam of the Day: A$AP Rocky ft. FKA twigs - "Fukk Sleep"

Sleek and sinister collaboration between A$AP Rocky and FKA twigs that is so good you wonder why it took so long for them to make music together.

Jam of the Day: Lolo Zouaï - "High Highs to Low Lows"

Franco-Algerian singer Lolo Zouaï, who now resides in Brooklyn, creates what she calls "bittersweet bangers." "High Highs to Low Lows" is a perfect example. It's a smooth pop/R&B track that details the instability and uncertainty of starting out in the music industry. If this song is any indication, her sound is definitely not uncertain, and she should be a breakout star.

Jam of the Day: Chvrches - "Graves"

Yes, on Chvrches' new record Love is Dead, they have gone full on pop, stripping a lot of their quirkiness for stadium ready anthems. However, they still know how to right some catchy as hell tracks. I am digging the driving track "Graves" a lot. You can hear it here on Spotify.

Jam of the Day: TT - "Safe"

Warpaint’s guitarist and vocalist Theresa Wayman has released her first solo album under the name TT. The album leans more towards the electronic elements of her band's output, with Wayman crafting intricately complex sounds. Standout track "Safe" builds off a loping drum loop and samples, adding Wayman's dreamy vocals in multiple layers. You can listen to it here at Spotify.

Jam of the Day: Yeah But No - "Sand"

Dark and throbbing dance track from the Berlin duo Yeah But No. From their self-titled, debut album.

Jam of the Day: Now, Now - "Window"

Dramatic track from Now, Now's new record Saved that builds layers and layers of swooning synths into a gorgeous piece of electronic pop.

Jam of the Day: Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks - "Solid Silk"

From his quite wonderful new record Sparkle Hard, Stephen Malkmus turns on the charm with the lovely pop ballad "Solid Silk" that is buoyed by sweeping strings and a surprisingly tender vocal from Malkmus. You can hear it here on Spotify.

Jam of the Day: Nine Inch Nails - "God Break Down The Door"

Menacing new track from Nine Inch Nails, incorporating pulsating synths and skronking saxophones, sounding like an industrial homage to David Bowie's later work.

Jam of the Day: Pan-Pot - "Spitzer"

At first it doesn't seem like much is going on during the opening moments of Pan-Pot's epic techno track "Spitzer." By the end of its 11 minutes you will be in total rapture, as the duo take the old adage less is more, and turn it on its head.

Jam of the Day: My Brightest Diamond - "Champagne"

Throbbing electro track from My Brightest Diamond that is fantastically catchy. If you like Black Cherry-era Goldfrapp you will drink this right up.

Jam of the Day: Soft Kill - "Savior"

Dark and majestic post-punk from Portland band Soft Kill. This song sounds like the perfect marriage between The Cure and Sisters of Mercy.

Jam of the Day: Tiny Fireflies - "2040"

Chicago dream pop duo captivate with their new single "2040" that soars with swooning keyboards and echoing guitars.

Jam of the Day: Elsa Hewitt - "Gravid Day"

Atmospheric, trip-hop inspired track from Elsa Hewitt's gorgeous record Peng Variations.

Jam of the Day: Pinkshinyultrablast - "Eray"

Throw in Chvrches' synthpop drive, add some Cocteau Twins-like layering of guitars, and a touch of Eno-esque ambientness for texture, and you will come up with Russia's Pinkshinyultrablast. The only collusion here is some great influences that merge together flawlessly. From their record Miserable Miracles, "Eray" is a tightly constructed synthpop gem.

Jam of the Day: Unknown Mortal Orchestra - "Hunnybee"

Seductive alt-pop track from Unknown Mortal Orchestra that makes you want to turn the lights down, light some candles, and get busy.

Jam of the Day: Tove Styrke - "On the Low"

I think if your name is Tove and you are from Sweden you are just a natural born pop star. I really love this song from Tove Styrke's record Sway, which is chock full of pop perfection. This track is masterful in its simplicity, Tove sweetly singing over delicate beats and bloopy keyboards, wishing her new love would bring their relationship out into the light. The music, and Tove, getting more insistent as it goes along.

Jam of the Day: Shygirl - "O"

Hardcore club track from Shygirl that sounds like the meeting place between industrial and hip-hop. You can listen to it here on Spotify.

Jam of the Day: Shakey Graves - "Mansion Door"

In the vein of bands like Wilco, Gomez, and Alt-J, Shakey Graves walk that fine line between alt-rock, folk, and country, and make it their own. "Mansion Doors" has some of the loveliest, intricate guitar work, and some amazing harmonies. The entire album Can't Wake Up is a total charmer.

Jam of the Day: Beach House - "Black Car"

Based on the prior singles from Beach House's upcoming record 7, it will be a record of taking risks and chances. Each song finds the band pushing in new directions. "Black Car" merges meditative keyboards, chant-like vocals, gentle guitars, and heartbeat drums into a peaceful, interior exploration. I am eagerly anticipating what the rest of the album will bring.

Jam of the Day: Braille Face - "Lightletting"

Beautiful bedroom pop from Braille Face. You can listen to it here on Spotify.

Jam of the Day: Half Waif - "Silt'

The centerpiece to Half Waif's new record Lavender, "Silt" focuses on Nandi Rose Plunkett's expressive voice that sits somewhere between Kate Bush's forceful punch and St. Vincent's wry cynicism. It's a stunning song from one of my favorite records this year.
