Another week has come to a close and with it came a slew of
new music for our enjoyment. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to catch all of
it when it comes out. But with the weekend here, now is a great chance to catch
up on all the new songs and music videos you may have missed.
Vinyl Bay 777, Long Island’s music outlet, loves new music.
That’s why we’ve once again compiled a list of some of our favorite new songs
and music videos from the past week. Here are six tracks you need to check out.
1.
Keuning, “Boat Accident”: The third single from The
Killers guitarist Dave Keuning upcoming debut solo album, ‘Prismism,’ “Boat
Accident” is a heavily 80s-inspired track pulling from the pop-ier reaches of the
new wave sound. The grittiness of the recording and the Cars-like melody will
transport you back in time. (video)
2.
Broken
Bells, “Shelter”: Broken Bells, the duo of The Shins frontman James Mercer and
producer Danger Mouse, are back with their first new song in three years, “Shelter.”
The song is the perfect mix of electronic groove and indie dreaminess, making
it both airy and grounded at the same time. It’s a nice track to just kick back
and relax to. (video)
3.
Mike
Shinoda, “Can’t Hear You Now”: I love the message of “Can’t Hear You Now.”
The song talks about ignoring the voices that try to bring you down and being
positive to yourself. Those powerful lyrics are supported by a thumping beat
and simple but catchy melody that grow in intensity that will have you grooving
along and having fun, presumably like Shinoda is in the video. (video)
4.
Guided By Voices, “My Future In Barcelona”: “My
Future In Barcelona” is a pretty straight-forwardly indie-rock track. The song
brings together clean guitars and consistent drum beat into a slowly swirling
melody that will have you grooving along. (video)
5.
Tullycraft, “Passing Observations”: After six
years, Tullycraft announced they will be releasing a new album next year, as
well as gave fans a taste with its first single, “Passing Observations.” The
song is a fun, upbeat track that combines the wit of They Might Be Giants with a
sound reminiscent of Guster. It’s also has a very catchy melody and hook, so it
will be tough to get out of your head after listening. (video)
6.
J.S. Ondara, “Saying Goodbye”: J.S. Ondara’s
latest single “Saying Goodbye” shows off the up-and-coming blues/R&B singer’s
smooth voice. The slow cadence and harmonious vocals together build a sort of
sincerity for the story-like lyrics of the song. It’s more bluesy than soulful,
highlighting it’s sad and contemplative nature. (video)

music videos. And with the weekend here, this is a great chance to catch up on
