So Heavy I Fell Through the Earth
Grimes
A very ethereal song, almost reminded me Cocteau Twins a bit.

Cool for a Second
Yumi Zouma
I've been a big fan of New Zealand band Yumi Zouma since there EP II released back in 2015. It had been a couple years since a new release, but their new album is set for release March 13.

Like a Movie
Labrinth
Definitely an unusual song and not my normal style, but I definitely thought it was something that should be shared.
New to You and Throwbacks
These are some our favorites that are not necessarily new.
Brian recommends...
Fire Drill
Dessa
Dessa is Margret Wander who is also a member of the indie hip hop band Doomtree. This song came out in 2018 but I only just discovered it.
Ray recommends...
Velouria
The Pixies
I was saddened to realize I had only ever selected the Pixies once before, so please accept this gem as a form of apology.
Brian recommends...
Diamonds Are Forever
Para Despues
I was rummaging through some of my old 90s techno/dance stuff and came across this gem from an album that was a bit of a mixed bag but this one is a definite highlight.
Ray recommends...
Zen Drums
Bibio
I promise 99% of you are going to *despise* this song, but I absolutely love it. One of the best parts of Silicon Valley was the songs selected for the end credits. This was from one of the final shows.
