With his breezy Hawaiian t-shirts, infectiously loud laugh, and aptitude for expletives, Australian house music producer FISHER is most definitely the life of the party. Made for white sand beaches and big city rooftops, his newest single “Palm Beach Banga” brings that same high-spirited and boisterous attitude for which we know and love FISHER. Released on his own Catch & Release Records, the new track serves as his first release this year. Acid-inspired bass and a hypnotic vocal are layered over a groovy house beat in “Palm Beach Banga,” which samples Blaze’s 1997 song “My Beat.” The soulful sampling and shrewd sound design captures the feeling of freedom found on the dance floor.

It’s official: ODESZA are back. After torturing fans via a series of cryptic posts and leaks last week, the duo have finally released “The Last Goodbye,” their first new original music since 2018. The soulful electronic tune samples 1965’s “Let Me Down Easy” by fabled Detroit R&B singer Bettye LaVette, who is credited as a featured artist. “This song was born out of the concept of trying to bring these lasting, defining musical pieces like the 1965 release of ‘Let Me Down Easy’ by Bettye LaVette into a modern and contemporary electronic setting,” Odesza explained. “The idea of bringing two worlds together, that at first seem distant, has always been something we’ve been drawn to.

Making his debut on Flux Pavilion and Doctor P’s storied Circus Records imprint, Fluencee resigns himself to raw emotion on “Paralyzed,” a collaboration with Paper Idol. As a breath-like texture and distant melody swell into focus at the outset of the track, Paper Idol contributes to the eerie atmosphere, declaring definitively “I give up on all control now.” More broadly, “Paralyzed” explores the seemingly ever-present urge to indulge in too much of a good thing. Despite the toxic push and pull of the temptation, the overwhelming sensory rollercoaster of it all is enough to render one powerless. As the track reaches its apex, Fluencee augments the haunting effect of the hook by splicing it up and adding transformative glitch and distortion effects...
