[Listen] Arctic Monkeys - "2013"

Arctic Monkeys have unleashed the B-Side to their single "Do I Wanna Know?" and it's a foot stomping, chicken neck worthy tune titled "2013". You can stream it in full below. Their highly anticipated new album, AM, will be out on September 9th via Domino and to support that they've just announced a UK arena tour set for October, dates of which can be found over here, although I'm pretty certain all dates sold out in minutes you may still be able to grab a few seats in the nosebleeds for a few venues.

2013 is the year of the Monkeys.

[Watch] Classixx and Nancy Whang Take a Yacht Cruise in the Video for "All You're Waiting For"

Classixx debut album Hanging Gardens is one of my top so far this year. It has seen heavy rotation wherever I go, and the album's single "All You're Waiting For" is one of the highlights. Featuring LCD Soundsystem's Nancy Whang, the glittering synths and posh lyrics match perfectly with this new video. Whang plays the rich, snobbish owner of yacht, sailing the high seas with martinis in hand. Check it out below.

In related Classixx news, the duo have remixed Australian band The Preatures' track "This Is How You Feel?". They steer away from the upbeat groove of the original, giving the song a glitzy, synthesized sheen. Stream the remix below.

[Listen] Stream Summer Camp's Groovy Jam "Fresh"

Wow, it's been a long time since I've heard the name Summer Camp. Back in 2011, the band released their fantastic debut album Welcome to Condale. They followed that up with the Always EP last year, but have flown rather under the radar since. Well, Jeremy Warmsley and Elizabeth Sankey are back with new material and a soon-to-be-released sophomore album. Aiming to brighten your already bright summer days, the duo have offered up "Fresh." The song is incredibly infectious, ushering forwards with groovy layered basslines and synths. Paired with Sankey's charming yet heartbroken vocals, it's hard to deny how great this song is. Add this one to your summer playlist. Stream it below alongside its hilarious lyric video.

Summer Camp's self-titled sophomore album is out on September 9th.

[Listen] Diplo Teams Up with Mike Posner and Boaz van de Beatz for "Crown"

This year, Diplo's focus has been fixed on his Major Lazer project. That's why it was a nice surprise when he returned out of the blue with a new track under his own moniker. Teaming up with rapper Mike Posner and producer Boaz van de Beatz, "Crown" is loud, very loud. It begins with glitzy synths and Posner's echoing verses, only to throw that superficiality out the window with a bombastic drop. When that hits, shit gets real grimy. Stream it below.

[Listen] Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs Remixes Disclosure's "F For You"

UK producer duo Disclosure's bouncy track "F For You" gets a hefty overhaul, as fellow Brit Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs implants it with darker tones and otherworldly atmosphere. The result is six minutes of synthesized grandeur, where moments of echoing emptiness are coupled with futuristic flourishes. Press play to escape into this excellent remix.

Disclosure's debut album Settle, featuring "F For You," is out now.

[Listen] Check Out Kings of Leon's New Single "Supersoaker"

Kings of Leon have offered up the first single from their sixth album, Mechanical Bull. Titled "Supersoaker," it's definitely a throwback to the band's older material. The hazy rock number that feels much more brash and youthful than recent albums, giving credence to Jared Followill's sentiments: "I thought we were going to make a really mature album but I’m amazed how youthful it sounds." Listen below.

Mechanical Bull is out on September 24th.
