[Indie/Electronic] No Diavolo - Holy Night

Florida's own No Diavolo said they were going for a "“blues/soul/doo-wop aesthetic with a minimalist hip-hop vibe" on this one. Seems about right to me. With strong vocals and eerie undertones, "Holy Night" is a great fall track, and will be a dark favorite for Halloween parties.

[Cover/Electronic] Glowbug - Where Is My Mind?

"Where Is My Mind" is an iconic song. The track has been used in countless movies (most notably Fight Club) and made waves on the alternavitve/buzz scene in the mid 90's. When ever this song gets a rework, I give it a chance because once in a while there is one worth listening to. Bellingham, WA based ambient/electronic band Glowbug dropped a 4 track album the other day with covers of The Pixies, The Smiths, Yeah Yeah Yeah's and Radiohead. They're all worth a listen, but be sure to check out this cover, and one of my favorite Pixies remixes of all time.

[Indie/Electronic] RAC - 1979 (ft. Liz Anjos)

We've said this 1000 times. RAC can do no wrong. His imaginative, synth heavy style gets me every time. His latest is a rework uses vocals from Liz Anjos' cover of Smashing Pumpkin's classic "1979", a favorite of just about everybody that grew up in the 90's. We're a fan of all things RAC, and if you're not already, you will be soon.

[Indie/Electronic] Carousel - Games

You've probably never heard of Carousel. Neither had I, until today. Faithful daily SB reader Devan U. sent us over a chilled out track by the duo (Kevin Friedman and Jackson Phillips) and I was quite impressed. I spent a long time searching the interwebs trying to find anything on them, and found literally nothing. So, either I don't know how to use Google, or SB is bringing you a completely undiscovered group with some serious talent. Check out "Games", and keep a look out for these guys.
