CAPPA - Wannabe Feat. Jon Santana
No one should ever judge a book by its cover, yet we all do it. I'm guilty, too. Case in point: CAPPA is clearly one of my musical crushes, an artist I'd trust with KKS's log-in password. And who didn't have a Spice Girls phase and at one point caught themselves singing along to "Wannabe"? But a CAPPA cover of said Spice Girls song...a curve ball, right? Well, the girl just pointed to the outfield and hit a home run with an assist by Jon Santana. When the :52 mark hits, that's the cue for everyone in the stands to start the Wave while CAPPA slides into home.

Arbitraire - Dandelions
Speaking of home, Copenhagen trio Arbitraire release a lush new single called "Dandelion" that sits right on the indie and electronic genre border. It's the equivalent to driving cross country, stopping at the state line and standing with one foot on each side. There's a hard-to-describe adrenaline rush of excitement that goes with doing that, and this song embodies it. Similar to finding a literal dandelion in the wild and blowing on it until you're left with just a stem in hand.

RALPH - Something More
Ever-since I heard RALPH's "Cold To The Touch" months ago, I immediately wanted more more more. So, "Something More" is not only appropriately titled but the X on our musical treasure map that we've been looking high and low for. Unfortunately, now I just want another someone more.

THEY. - Back It Up (Lido's Passion Flip)
Lido might as well rhyme with WOW as the two go hand-in-hand. His latest remix - a Passion Flip of THEY.'s "Back It Up" - is a gospel choir on a good one. This must be what those bible thumpers talk about when they "get saved." I feel saved. What's that saying? It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma...that, times 10 hallelujahs.
