Bruce Springsteen has a new album coming out called Western Stars. The release date is June 14, 2019.

Listen to his newly released song from the album called Hello Sunshine:

Springsteen has been in NYC with his Broadway run, and recently posted on social media teasing art work of famous scenes out West. Clearly teasing the new album and now the name makes perfect sense.

Bruce says that “this record is a return to my solo recordings featuring character driven songs and sweeping, cinematic orchestral arrangements. It’s “a jewel box of a record.”

Flying Lotus has released two new tracks off his recently announced next album, Flamagra. Read descriptions below:

“Spontaneous” is a flirtatious ballad with Yukimi Nagano of Little Dragon singing atop a funky template. It blends perfectly with “Takashi”, a piano driven instrumental that swirls itself into a soulful cosmic jam. The track is aptly named after Takashi Yudo, an artist from the creative project teamLab. Lotus visited this visual experience in 2018, re-inspiring a creative spirit inside.

You can stream the two new jams below. This follows up the initial announcement of the album and the release of “Fire is Coming” with David Lynch. Here’s the cover and tracklist for the new album:

Flying Lotus has announced his new album, Flamagra, his first video from the project featuring David Lynch, and his fall tour in North America, Europe and Japan. The other guests on the album is the following: FlyLo tapped Anderson .Paak, George Clinton, Little Dragon, Tierra Whack, Denzel Curry, David Lynch, Shabazz Palaces, Thundercat, Toro y Moi, Solange and more.

Enter Flamagra – a work that sweeps up every quantum advance and creative leap of the last dozen years of Lotus’ career and takes them even further; the Warp release encompasses hip-hop, funk, soul, jazz, global dance music, tribal poly-rhythms, IDM, the L.A. Beat scene, but it soars above a specific vortex whose coordinates can’t be accurately charted. Other than to say that it is a Flying Lotus record, perhaps the definitive one. An astral afro-futurist masterpiece of deep soul, cosmic dust, and startling originality.

Tycho is finishing up his new LP and follow up to the album, Epoch. The first track from that new collection is called “Easy” which has been released. Read Scott Hansen’s thoughts below:

“My journey as an artist has been defined by an iterative cycle with each album building on and refining an overarching vision,” continues Hansen. “‘Easy’ is about coming to terms with my past and defining a clear vision moving forward. It’s a comforting voice that reminds you not to get so lost in the work, but to take it easy and enjoy the ride. ‘Easy’ is the bridge to the future.”

The upcoming LP will be their first release with Mom + Pop Music and Ninja Tune.

“Past is Prologue,” Hansen says. “DIVE, AWAKE, and EPOCH were all released by Ghostly International, the label I have been with since 2006. The past 13 years have seen Tycho evolve from the part-time solo project of a graphic designer into a band that achieved things far beyond any of our wildest expectations. The people at Ghostly have been there every step of the way to support my vision and for that I am forever grateful. I couldn’t be more excited to share that Tycho has signed with Mom + Pop and Ninja Tune as label partners for the next album release. While it is bittersweet to see such a meaningful chapter in this story end, it is just the beginning of another.”
