The Well-Informed are currently recording at Saltlands Studio in Brooklyn with a collection of collaborators from the bands Yellowbirds, Rocketship Park, and The Poison Tree. They sum up the sound of their music as cuban missile make-out pop.
Raphael Novarina is a songwriter who was born in Paris in 1980. He started to compose his first musical pieces at the piano and guitar, and delivered a self-produced homestudio album called "L'unisson" in 2005. Great feedback from the public, local radio and some noticeable appearances in clubs and festivals encouraged him to record a new album, " Loin Des Fous ".

Isle of Wight residents The Shutes release their EP Echo of Love April 2nd, and to mark the occasion they have offered the track "She Said" for free free download.
The 5-track EP is being released by Cross Keys Records and was recorded with producer Julian Simmons (Midlake, Guillemots) at East London’s Din Studios towards the end of 2011, and was mixed by Rich Woodcraft (Radiohead, Neil Young, The Arctic Monkeys). The EP showcases a band that sound like they are quickly accelerating towards the pinnacle of their powers.

He sounds a bit like Bowie with even some Prince in there. "Kanchenjunga (Everything is up)" is an extract from Jan Dark's debut album Charting Darker Waters, which will be available on April 6th for download (itunes, amazonMp3, spotify etc). More info about Jan Dark at jandark.com.

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour is bubblegum to the 10th degree, but with a big 70s influence. This girls voice is super distinct, which is a good or bad thing depending how many times you listen to the album. I will say...they may be trying to be retro-cooool, but I give them props for reaching back. They do get the party started.

"The intro of “Forget Me” could easily find itself on a MGMT record, but the track’s funky, dream pop vibe could be more accurately described as Hall & Oates with more sweeping, upbeat synths. Yes, Forget Me's beat bounces in all the right places while the vocals get serious and soulful." – Loud Loop Press
Hello interwebs, my name is Lizzy. I recently joined the yesyesyall staff, and I'm pumped to post some great finds. I love music from the past when things were much simpler, but I'm excited about where it's heading. The music industry has flipped into a rabbit hole of possibilities.
Gary Clark Jr. is a little bit Black Keys and a lot Jimi Hendrix. His songs sound vintage, but he recorded the EP a few months ago. This Texan is busy playing impressive festivals like Clapton's Crossroads, and he's becoming a head honcho in the rock scene. “Bright Lights” is one mooooovin’ and grooooovin’ track. Thank you Emily of Happy Ears for getting me hooked.

I am not sure what to make of the album title I Love You, Dude, but this is a pretty interesting release. Digitalism shares some of the best traits of the band Air. Instead they do it with a more contemporary styling, leaving behind the the vintage flair. I love this track Just Gazin', it's a certifed Guilty Pleasure.
I am kind of loving “She Will” off the new Lil Wayne joint. The track starts off with an eerie bell loop, then the beat drops and you can’t help but nod your head. The flow Wayne spits is pretty flawless, as usual from Lil Wayne. I haven’t had a chance to listen to a lot of the tracks off the new album, The Carter IV, but I have to say this is one of the guiltiest of guilty pleasures of the year so far.
