Soundcloud

If there’s one thing we can’t get enough of over here in Southern California it’s 70 degree weather, kale smoothies, and some Golden Coast music to make our days much, much brighter. With only 4 songs on their Soundcloud and a few remixes by some well known artists, the sunshine state duo are back with a summery new track that will wrap your goosebump covered skin with a snuggie full of warmth.

After listening through “The Futurist” a few hundred times, we noticed that a) we REALLY love this track b) it has a slight Reggae influence in its predominately Indie nature, and c) we just REALLY love this track. Filled with mesmerizing guitar riffs, vibrant, tropical elements, and a catchy chorus that’ll be stuck in your head all day, Golden Coast undoubtedly just blew us straight into paradise with this one. These guys have been putting out solid content over the past few months and each release just seems to get better and better. We think “The Futurist” is their best track yet…but we know they’ll probably make us re-evaluate that bold statement.

This track is up for free download, however, if you want a copy for yourself just email the guys at: wearegoldencoast@gmail.com and let them know you supported the track on Hype Machine! So if you’re feeling a bit cold today, wrap yourself up in this Golden Coast blanket of pure, sun shiny ecstasy.

After taking some much needed time off from all things music, this ninja has forgotten what it’s like to write out just how these sounds make us all feel. You might be thinking “how the hell do you just take a break from music?” Well, sometimes it’s nice to fill the room with silence in order to appreciate good music and today we have just the song to help remedy your ears. Helping fill our empty souls are London producer duo, Azedia and their heart-warming new original, “Kin”.

“Kin” is the type of song that could easily be the soundtrack of our Winter; it resonates something enticingly refreshing across the crisp, cold air. Filled with bumpin’ builds, intricate piano bridges, haunting hums, and angellic synths, Azedia brings our ears a taste of heaven with this elevating track. For me personally, this song instantly took me back to that one time I randomly flew over to the East coast by myself, where I explored new cities, new people, and new energies. Since then, music has never sounded the same. So cheers to Azedia for giving us all those reminiscent feelings of all the times we’ve felt exuberant, free, and full of life. Make sure to pre-order their second album, Form, out on February 22nd.
