We introduced this feature yesterday; a small collection of updates and movements of all the new acts catching our eye at the moment. Seems we may be giving you updates fairly frequently, as by the time I pressed “post” on the last article, a few offerings of new music seemed to magically appear in front of me. Pay close attention:
——————————- 
Orca Orca used to be known as Young Minds and parts of the ‘Change of Pace’ 7” were written under that moniker (one which Jim Hewitt was reportedly not too fond of). Think of this as an exciting resurgence, then. The b-side, ‘Get Up(Get Out)’ is especially refreshing.

Tashaki Miyaki project one of those delightfully timeless guitar-based sounds; a sound we’ve been besotted with for some time now. Sounds of Sweet Nothing (the label that brought us Gross Magic) have snapped ‘em up for a 12” physical EP release, all of which is available on bandcamp now. Upon a pre-order, you’re also given five additional tracks - alternative versions of tracks AND a Buddy Holly cover. The outer-space and jellyfish featuring video for ‘Somethin Better Than Nothin’ can be seen below:

Edinburgh’s Essáy have already given us the Distance & Lights EP in 2011, but this breathtakingly haunting track, which is a seemingly a spontaneous giveaway, makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. On the recording process, the describe their surroundings as such…”it was really, really grey” Essáy - Noir by ESSÁY.

Georgiaa really caught our attention with the saccharine, sweeping sound of ‘Summer Grass’ - the freshest, most honest pop song to show its face in the last few months. Since that offering, Dane Mathias Andersen has gone on to display something a little more in-line with Youth Lagoon th                  an Wild Nothing. The sharp guitar lines remained, only this time they’re accompanied by light keys and hushed, near-tuneless vocals. An interesting step away from the earlier sound.
