It’s Monday! Let’s get to some music!

BANKS – Brain

It’s possible that L.A based singer-songwriter BANKS isn’t on your radar yet. Possible, but also highly unfortunate. Having ranked #3 in BBC’s Sound of 2014 list, BANKS has been tipped for big things and on the basis of Brain it’s really not hard to see why. Chilling and ambient, Brain gives BANKS’s vocal space to do its thing; its thing being mesmerizing you from beginning to end. The production is stellar, don’t get me wrong, but even it knows that BANKS is the star of the show. 

Sky Ferreira – You’re Not The One

Are you ready for something seriously funky? I hope so. Sky Ferreira is about to take you on the strangest, coolest trip you’re likely to take this week with her latest single You’re Not The One. Channeling Kim Wilde, No Doubt and Kate Bush via Lady Gaga, You’re Not The One is one of the catchiest, grooviest, most slickly produced slabs of pop we’ve heard in ages. This girl is going places. 

SCANDAL – Departure

SCANDAL STUDIO LIVE「Departure」@ Sound City by genkidene
J-rock superstars SCANDAL appeared on the very first Music Monday and it’s taken and awful lot of self control on my part not to include them every week since. Their latest single, Departure, in lieu of a music video, is currently doing the rounds online via a rather spectacular live recording. SCANDAL get accused of cashing in on their good looks more than they deserve. With songs, and videos, like this, hopefully those criticisms will become a thing of the past.
