So I thought I was done for the night and would continue on my behemoth list of songs to feature tomorrow morning. That is, until Flight Facilities dropped their brand new song. Behold, All Your Love, which features Sydney’s Dustin Tebbutt on transcendental vocals. Not only am I (and most of my friends) ardent FF fans, but this song is phenomenal, so I had to hop back on for a prompt share. All Your Love is a drastic departure from Flight Facilities’ more disco grooving tracks of yore. Instead, it seems to lean towards a deep luscious, ambient pumping organic house tone reminiscent of RÜFÜS DU SOL or Elderbrook, both of whom I’m also huge fans of, so I’m a happy camper right now whilst I’m already on my fifth or sixth listen of All Your Love. Australian electronic duo Flight Facilities are in the midst of their Return Flight tour and now they’ve followed it up with this brilliant song. It’s turning into one fine 2018 for FF fans like me. All Your Love is a meditative and expansive song simultaneously intimate soothing and atmospheric sprawling. It wraps us up in its shimmering beats, comforting us and dispersing a calm tranquility from within its ever evolving fluidity. We sink into its beauty, finding inner peace in it despite all the chaos around us. Stream/purchase All Your Love, here. Find out about FF’s tour, here. We’re hoping a Bay Area date gets added soon.

It’s been a moment since we’ve visited with our favorite dance pachyderm from LA, but now that Elephante has released a terrific preview of his upcoming 9 track EP, it’s high time we delved straight back into the versatile artist’s vibrant music. Glass Mansion: Prologue features four tastes from the forthcoming project, which drops on June 15th. It’s a guest talent studded affair, as all four tracks he’s unveiled feature magnificent vocal cameos. For now, let’s turn our attention to Have It All, featuring ever pervasive chanteuse Nevve. Elephante presents us with an emotive stirring, lithesome skipping pop meets dance song with crisp affecting melodies and metallic thrumming synths. We can’t decide whether to melt into the floor or get up and dance. Maybe we can do both and “have it all”. Pre-order Glass Mansion, here.

Australia’s Night Tales first dazzled us late last year with their debut single Move You, a deep pumping, dark sweltering electronic ode to unrequited love. The duo, formed by producer Third Floor and singer songwriter Kamaliza (previously of Olympic Ayres), return with an ace new jam named Want, which we can’t stop wanting more of after grooving to our hearts content to the song’s balmy sunset house and silky crooning by guest vocalist fellow Australian songstress Kimono. Chill disco beats, sultry horns, and some sweet RÜFÜS vibes abound on the molten electronic track. Want is out now on Majestic Casual. Find it, here.

Infatuation and obsession, hallmarks of lovelorn crushes, can be incredibly confusing and frustrating. Try as we might, due to our fear of getting our hearts fractured, we can’t shake the person we’ve unwittingly given said hearts to. And even if a storybook romance ends up blooming, our own paranoia and the ghosts of our past relationships haunt us, leaving us second guessing our amorous fortune. XY&O’s Shades Of You, a sleek pumping, fluorescent gliding electronica and pop hybrid with a summery, balmy glow, captures those precarious tendencies. The Welsh trio’s sparkling, billowing track is pure bliss, but it oozes bittersweet restlessness and lovesick disquietude, too. It’s a gorgeously stirring return by XY&O, a dreamy gusting, silky sailing ointment for our jittery hearts. Stream/download the single, here.

Our favorite Los Angeles based couple, pop siren Molly Moore and progressive soul swooner Brandyn Burnette, have re-united as Cosmos & Creature on I Am Free, a chill sauntering, pristine prancing pop song whose dulcet vocals and verdant electronic production take us on a truly liberating ride. Its brisk beats and chill house radiance lifts a weight off our shoulders after a long work week, filling us with joy and euphoria. I Am Free is your new go-to summer jam, a laid back swathe of bliss with wistful, nostalgic undertones. You can download the single from iTunes, here.

We might as well be dancing in the Caribbean right now as we bask in the tropical beauty of this gorgeous remix from Danish producer JOEL. He’s given Norwegian siren Ina Wroldsen a balmy dance makeover on his summery edit of the buzzing artist’s single, Strongest. Sia meets Shakira as Ina Wroldsen serenades us with her exquisite voice over JOEL’s luminously buoyant house. The mellifluously lifting deep house remix is a free download, here.

Crisp piano stabs and high voltage beats inspire us to get up and dance our Thursday night away on vivacious For Real, a track out now on Spinnin’ from producers Goshfather and Zookëper.

We’ve never “dropped out” of loving versatile Santa Barbara trio Dropout, and we don’t foresee that ever happening, particularly if the group continues surprising us with their sonic forte and chameleon skills with songs like their recent collaboration with Los Angeles songbird Anna Clendening. Dropout has taken us on quite a trip with the different types of dance and electronic tracks they’ve given us. With U n Me, they offer a chill house meets summery pop amalgam that leaves us more than content and blissed out. Summer isn’t officially here yet, but it might as well be. A gooey core and soft sweetness melts our hearts on the whistle resplendent ditty. Re-visit some of Dropout’s prior releases on Soundcloud, here.

We ascend to cloud nine as two of our all time favorite electronic acts, Seattle’s ODESZA and Australia’s Flight Facilities, come together on a track off ODESZA’s new Higher Ground remix pack. I’ll let that sink in for a moment… this is two juggernaut production forces with completely different artistic styles. That’s right, Flight Facilities has given Higher Ground, one of the most beautiful arias off ODESZA’s beloved album A Moment Apart, a lush, halcyon house edit! Their remix departs from their usual disco imbued dance music, but it’s a deep thrumming, verdant and feathery beauty nonetheless with glowing sunset vibes enhanced by Naomi Wild’s gorgeous voice. ODESZA’s new remix pack also features remixes by Reske, pluko (fka Pluto), and the original version of HIgher Ground. Stream in full on Soundcloud, here. Support via alternate platforms, here.
