Future Islands- "Tomorrow"

New TracksDannySpitsComment

Following last year's On the Water LP, Baltimore synth pop band Future Islands has a new single on the way. "Tomorrow," the A-side from the single, is available to stream via the SoundCloud widget above.

In a way, Future Islands is the antithesis to their contemporaries; with the indiesphere currently so heavily saturated in detached, understated synth pop, the group's dramatic take on the genre feels like a breath of fresh air. With its appropriately large reverb, pulsating rhythms, female background vocals, and singer Sam Herring's uniquely soulful delivery, "Tomorrow" is no exception to this. Its inspiring effect is a testament to Future Islands' talent for creating powerful, arena-sized pop music that is dripping in personality.

Niki & The Dove- "Tomorrow"

New TracksDannySpitsComment

Swedish electropop duo Niki & The Dove are just a few weeks away from releasing their debut album, Instinct, via Sub Pop Records. In anticipation, the group has made available this new single, titled "Tomorrow." The track begins with a set of soft, plinking synth tones, then promptly makes way for a confident vocal delivery from singer Malin Dahlström. After the introduction of a steady electronic beat, however, this confidence seems to explode tenfold with the arrival of the euphoric, explosive chorus. Paired with driving production from Gustaf Karlöf, the duo's other half, Dahlström's voice continues to showcase an admirable display of strength throughout the remainder of the song.

Stream the track above, and expect Instinct to drop on May 14.
