Matt Corby - Resolution

This song has an R&B feel to it, but also this folky vibe with gospel background singing. It's just all about the vocals the whole way through, runnin' all over the place. It's raw but it's gorgeous, and it makes you feel all the feels there are to feel.

The Other Tribe - We Should Be Dancing

The wooden percussion and xylophone in this song are priceless. It has that whole rain dance thing going on in the background, and the lyrics don't deny you that, either. The Other Tribe sounds a lot like Gold Fields in this song, another overseas band being danced to in the states right now. They could just as easily be picked up here, or anywhere, because they have a really universal vibe in their music.

RDGLDGRN - I Love Lamp

RDGLDGRN has their own flavor, a mix of vocals and rap like AWOLNATION's Knights of Shame. It's more about the story than the music, but it's still damn catchy with a great guitar melody post-chorus. It's relative to different generations and genres, one of those songs you know could get picked up easily for radio and take off.

Akron/Family - Until the Morning

The intro to this song puts you in a completely different mindset than what you'd expect from the vocals, but when you hear it, it fits. It's a very folksy melody, vocal-wise, and the lyrics are phenomenal, but the music starts off like an episode of American Horror Story, full of creepy ominous vibes. It takes a pretty good, musical mind to match the music and vocals that Akron/Family does in this song.

Holy Ghost - Dumb Disco Ideas

Holy Ghost has a really solid 70s funk feel, with vocals that sound like Spoon - but this song also has this weird David Bowie vibe going on. It's an eight minute song, but it's very music based - halfway through, there's a switch in lyrics and melody that gives off a totally different feel. And then it ends in pure vocals, which is interesting for such a music-focused song. It's different in a way that isn't too obtuse; it's just refreshing and great-sounding.

Is Tropical - Dancing Anymore

Is Tropical's female vocals sound like Wild Belle and the male vocals sound like Shiny Toy Guns' male lead; the match of them, though, sounds like heaven. The music is subtly techno, not full of in-your-face synthesizing, and it's pretty in a raw way that a lot of electric songs don't give you. There are minimal lyrics, but the song is still genuinely good, catchy, and passion-filled.

Andy Bell - Keep On Running

This song starts off with a vibe the goes from ominous to fun in two beats flat. The music and the vocals split off and go back and forth, and the almost-silence in between those two makes them sound even better. It's a song full of breakdowns and overlaps, and something new is added every few seconds. It's the classy mix-up of melody that makes this song stick.

Vance Joy - Riptide

The ukulele melody at the beginning sounds like something Beirut would give you, but the vocals are way different than you'd expect. The lyrics are entirely genuine and they tell a story that makes you feel like you know the people the vocalist is singing about. It's just a really...real song.
