Earths - Kangerlussuaq
Kangerlussuaq demonstrates a new, previously unseen, side to Earths. Stripped away from the fuzz and lo-fi elements, we see uplifting guitars, crisp percussion and haunting vocals.
Poor Frisco - What's Left of It
Taken from their forthcoming debut album, What's Left of It showcases Poor Frisco at their best. With shades of The Shins and Pixies at play, What's Left of It is a great track from the East Kilbride five piece.
The Maybes - What You Can Remember
The Maybes are a Glasgow based duo whose recent EP Contra Todos features this track, What You Can Remember, which displays their melodic indie pop at its best.
Gus Harrower - Mystery
Mystery is the lead and title track from the debut EP by Edinburgh's Gus Harrower. At only 17, Gus is already a talented singer/songwriter who brings to mind the likes of Bon Iver.
YuTaNi - Mt. Minakami
YuTaNi is the solo project of Machines In Heaven's Connor Reid. His album, At The End Of Day, is a superb mix of downtempo and ambient elctronica. Mt Minakami is the album's centrepiece - a beautiful slice of electropop influenced electronica and one of this year's outstanding tracks.
Nothing Universe - Pyre
With a track taken from the band's live EP recorded at King Tut's, this track showcases the direction that Nothing Universe, previously known as Phases, have been taking with their music. Layered, dense, and intriguing Pyre builds things up only to tear it all down in an climatic frenzy.
