The Offspring have unveiled a timely music video to accompany their recent single “Let the Bad Times Roll”. The song appears on the veteran punk-rock act’s upcoming album of the same name, due out April 16th. The video shows an exaggerated view of quarantine life, with the subjects experiencing bizarre and frightening situations while stuck at home. One young woman sees her smartphone turn into a scorpion-like creature as it crawls on her face, while another woman is confronted by singing toilet paper and a giant mask-wearing cockroach. Meanwhile, a young man is playing a video game when a cat appears on screen and starts shooting laser beams out of its eyes. Another dude is attacked at home by a bizarre mob, somewhat mimicking the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol building. As a press rele...
Legendary Rock & Roll Hall of Famer John Oates has joined forces with brass-playing sensation Saxsquatch to reimagine Hall & Oates’ 1982 classic “Maneater.” Out now via Monstercat, the unlikely fusion of the two musical greats transformed the original top-charting hit “Maneater” into a jazzy, electro-spun modern classic. Injected with club-inspired grooves and dance-floor worthy basslines, the duo put a modern spin on Hall & Oates’ iconic record and rendering it a fit for new audiences across eras and genres. While Daryl Hall handles vocals on the original single, the remix sees Oates step up to the microphone for a funky rework. The new collaboration is accompanied by a music video that shows both Oates and Saxsquatch collaborating on the track in the stu...
NXTSY and Seb C, two budding Vancouver-based artists, have teamed up to release a brand new genre-crossing collaboration titled “Guala.” Featuring the audacious vocals of Kid Sharif, the track blends the hip-hop lyricism with the booming bass elements of electronic dance music. Fitted with emphatic horns, a bobbin’ baseline, and warm synths, this house track has what it takes to be a fan favorite. The first drop in “Guala” is somewhat of a warm-up, building heat and hinting at more to come. Here, NXSTY’s signature sound design is introduced, adding a vigorous twist to the deep house track. Meanwhile the haunting vocals are phased in and out. Arriving at that second drop, it is clear NXSTY and Seb C had intentions for “Guala” to be a club-ready hi...

Imanbek has continued to deliver hit after hit after bursting onto the scene with his viral remix of Saint JHN‘s “Roses.” Very few artists have experienced as meteoric a rise as the Kazakh producer, who just took home his first Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording. He’s now keeping his foot on the gas pedal with his latest offering, a kinetic dance remix of Supafly and Kiesza‘s “Fly With The Angels.” The remix features a thick, chest-thumping bassline and infectious drum patterns that harken back to Imanbek’s “Roses” rework.

Two Feet has joined forces with American indie pop band SHAED to release a conscious new track called “Part Time Psycho.” Out now on Photo Finish Records, this timely tune sheds some light on the topic of mental health. Inspired by the ups and downs of the past year, “Part Time Psycho” was created to increase awareness about the internal battles many individuals face, and to spread the message that no one has to face them alone. “At points we felt chest crushing pressure, intense joy, untraceable anxiety and moments of relief as the state of the world was in flux,” SHAED wrote in an Instagram post. “We know we were not alone in these feelings.” The release of “Part Time Psycho” was accompanied by a retro music ...
The Hotel Lobby is back with their new single “Gold,” a collaboration with Vanesa Seco. While many know Seco as a shuffler and dancer, “Gold” sees her in a new light: as a singer-songwriter. After appearing as a dancer in The Hotel Lobby’s April 2020 single “Superfly,” the duo wanted Seco to hop on the mic, and it was only a matter of time before they had to reunite. “Gold” is the result, an effervescent future bass track with melancholic chord progressions and warm, bubbly saws in the chorus. The track’s bright piano strikes, soaring sound design, and feel-good melodies all blend nicely with Seco’s top-line, which should do well to serve as a launchpad for a solo career. Check out the “Gold” music vide...
Los Angeles punk veterans NOFX have announced their 14th full-length LP, titled Single Album. In advance of its February 26th release, frontman Fat Mike and co. have unveiled the single “Linewleum” featuring contributions from members of Avenged Sevenfold. Single Album marks NOFX’s first LP since 2016’s First Ditch Effort. It is also the band’s first album since members of NOFX made highly insensitive onstage comments about the country music fans who died in the horrific Route 91 Harvest music festival massacre in Las Vegas in 2017. While the band apologized profusely, they were dropped from their own Punk in Drublic festival’s lineup and had a series of tour dates canceled. The new single, “Linewleum”, is actually an update of NOFX’s song “Linoleum”, which was the lead track on their 1994...
