• There is a new video for Hudson Mohawke‘s freak-tastic single Joy Fantastic.
• Twin Sister have released a new EP, Color Your Life. It is available on their website, and will be free to download for another couple of weeks.
• There is video of The National performing two new songs live over at Stereogum.
