How do you describe the genre bending sound of British rapper, singer-songwriter, record producer M.I.A.? Stoner hip hop? Psychedelic beat? Perhaps in the generic sense simply electronica. However you try to categorize it M.I.A. has captured the sound of now and while that may seem a bit familiar to some (remember De La Soul?) this is definitely a new formulation. I can already hear an adventurous DJ or two dropping “Bad Girls” into their set, hell the song is dance floor ready so expect to be sweating to this one on your next girl’s night out. “Bad Girls” is the first official single from M.I.A.’s fourth studio album set to be released this summer. Take a listen and add it to your playlist by clicking the iTunes link below.

Today’s Song of the Day is the perfect type of contemplative Deep House track that is perfect for a long, solo drive in the car. It’s brooding melody is provided by Anjunadeep artist Matt Lange. Matt has become a favorite for Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe and it’s easy to hear why with “Avalon” Take a listen and if you like add it to you playlist today. Thanks for reading.

Well some of you might be wondering why it’s taken so long for Atlanta’s Treasure Fingers to find his way into this blog. While there is no excuse, we hope that today’s Song of the Day will help make up for our glaring omission. The track “Au Revue” is from the recently released “Crusaders EP”, which is a collaboration with No Brainer Records head Malente and is a two song disco / house tour de force. Now by highlighting “Au Revue” we’re not trying to say that the title track (and mildly amusing Official Video linked below ) “Crusaders” is filler, oh no. In fact we recommend just adding the entire “Crusaders EP” to your playlist so take a listen and let us know what you think.

Dirty South, Thomas Gold, and Kate Elsworth have teamed up again to bring us “Eyes Wide Open”. It’s the trio’s second combined effort since last year’s hit track “Alive”. Originally, Elsworth’s vocals were meant to be added to a bootleg that Dirty South & Thomas Gold were working on. However, the two producers fell so in love with the track that they decided to forgo the bootleg and make a song around Elsworth’s vocals. Check out the track and if you like it, add it to your playlist by clicking the iTunes or Amazon links below.
