Totorro - Home Alone



This band helps fill the void that enemies left behind when they broke up.  They're like if Chon and enemies had a baby, and were French.  Musicianship on a different level, mathy, melodic and emotional.  A fun ride from start to finish with this album.

Yumi Zouma - Willowbank



Now for some indie pop from New Zealand (well, now in Paris/New York).  This music video is the embodiment of white people dancing, but the music shines through with its new wave, yet indie vibe.  A nice balance of great female vocals and undeniable hooks/melodies.  The album starts strong, and stays strong, enjoy!

Parra for Cuva - Majouré



Parra for Cuva is a German producer making electronic music that is rooted in classical jazz piano, with a very downtempo, house'ish twist.  He's fairly young, this album is his debut, and was released in 2015.  He mentions Bonobo as an influence, and that's really apparent in a great way.  You'll catch melodies being crafted with numerous instruments aside from his proficient piano playing (some guitar, steel drums, kalimba, accordians).  Enjoy friends~
