Here’s a full rundown of the artists and tracks landing on the Island:
The Beths: “The Great No One”
Sunny indie rock from New Zealand, full of jangly guitars and rich harmonies.
Starflyer 59: “New Guitar”
Infectious noise pop from a long-running California band with ’90s alternative rock roots.
This rising Philadelphia group pairs catchy pop-punk hooks with raw, relatable lyrics.
Pow Wow!: “Don’t Stop to Look”
Combining disco, rock, and soul, these New Yorkers’ sound was built for the dancefloor.
Ronnie Martin: “Sing Among the Breaches”
Veteran producer Ronnie Martin channels the best of ’80s synthwave into a neon-lit stunner.
P.E.: “Contradiction of Wants”
Psychedelic textures, swooping vocals, industrial drums, saxophones, hand-claps: these Brooklynites are a lot, in the best possible way.
De Lux: “On and On till the End of Us”
This Los Angeles “post-disco” duo put a shadowy spin on synth-pop that’s a little goth, a little punk, and entirely awesome.
Pale Blue Eyes: “TV Flicker”
Pillow-soft grooves and coasting rhythms, built around one of the most infectious, alien synth lines of recent memory.
Pool Kids: “That’s Physics, Baby”
Infusing emo with elements of math rock, prog, indie, and even jazz, these Florida up-and-comers stand poised for greatness.
Jungle Rat USA: “Love One Another”
Initially released in 1971 and shrouded in mystery until last year, this funky gem from Panama is a prime example of “souldies” (aka soul combined with R&B).
Ginger Root: “Loretta”
Inspired by Japan’s “city pop” movement of the ’70s and ’80s, Ginger Root describes his music as “aggressive elevator soul”: in-your-face, but also impossibly smooth.
