This week is a brief exercise in synth-based pop courtesy of New Order, Bad Life (kind of) and three tracks from the new, highly recommended double album by M83, "Hurry Up, We're Dreaming". Elsewhere, there's a new single from surf kids Real Estate and a couple of tracks from excellent hip-hop mixtapes. The two (free) mixtapes in question are Danny Brown's "XXX", which you can grab here, and Mr Muthafuckin' eXquire's "Lost in Translation", available here.
