“Princess of China”

Coldplay feat. Rihanna

Mylo Xyloto

3 stars

The third single from Coldplay’s latest album, Mylo Xyloto, “Princess of China” pushes the boundaries for both Coldplay and Rihanna’s usual styles. The song is loaded with an abundance of sounds focusing heavily on synth and electronica and providing a sense of momentum to its listeners.

“We Can Make the World Stop”

The Glitch Mob

We Can Make the World Stop EP

4 stars

The Glitch Mob combines a wide variety of unpredictable instruments, ranging from the violin to the guitar in this heavily electronica-infused song. Though there are no lyrics, the instrumental itself is a feast for the ears.

“The Drummer”

Niki and The Dove

The Drummer EP

4 stars

Swedish band Niki and The Dove presents an unexpectedly upbeat single fresh from its newest EP. Staying true to its title, “The Drummer” features strong percussion that stands out in the song, though there is certainly no shortage of other interesting elements present.
