Los Angeles’ Josh Legg, formerly one-third of synthpop trio NightWaves, is now rounding his first year as a solo producer under the alias Goldroom. Releasing both original productions as well as remixes of artists such as Penguin Prison and Niki & The Dove over the past year, he’s determined to bring “clean sounds and emotive melodies” within the electronic genre.

More recently, he collaborated with Melbourne artist Chela to form a dreamy track titled “Fifteen”. Josh takes advantage of his past synth experience to weave multiple layers throughout the track, placing them under hefty bass lines and between Chela’s gorgeous vocals to create a slow, nostalgic piece that takes you back to those bittersweet teenage days.

True Womanhood Pays Tribute to Pussy Riot

Brooklyn transplant band True Womanhood dives into a darker electronic track with a liberating outcry. Thomas Redmond and Noam Elsner have remixed “Punk Prayer” by feminist collective Pussy Riot. The remix pays tribute to the members of the group who performed their prayer in Christ the Savior Orthodox Cathedral on February 21, 2012. The prayer calls for the end of Putin’s regime, and consequently two members of the group were arrested and sentenced to seven years in prison after the performance.

Not only a track worthy of reblog on your Tumblr, but True Womanhood highlights an important cause by oppressed Moscow feminists. So hum along to the darkwave vibes and shout along to pay tribute to the young persecuted comrades in need. By the end of the True Womanhood remix there will be a few phrases you might say to yourself including ‘SAVE THE PUSSIES’ and ‘FREE PUSSY RIOT!’ Give a listen to the remix below…

The video of Pussy Riot’s Moscow performance has over 1 million hits on YouTube and counting – and if you enter their name in a search engine, a plethora of their videos protesting Patriarchy will be available for viewing on YouTube.

It’s just about that time of year when there’s nothing better than coming across a catchy, youthful tune that gets your mood up to par with the warmer weather. UK’s Blue Boats has done just that for us this week. A dream-pop solo project started by Olly Gale, a student in Bournemouth, couldn’t have chosen a better time to release his newest track “Summers Down.” The bedroom pop piece is highlighted with dreamy similarities to artists such as Craft Spells and Wild Nothing with a vibrant guitar lines and echoed vocals. As with his previous work, a mirrored rhythm of synth and drums runs in the background to keep a consistent, inspirational flow throughout the song. Take a listen and dream away, summer’s certainly not down with this on play.
