Digital dreams and neon nightmares. From sugar-coated pop to dark sparking chills with this Deer Du Bois playlist as we reach the end of the year.

Joel Rampage gives us head-splitting beats over bright-light vocals on their newest track “Bleed”. A great new discovery slipped into our ears when we found Me Not You and their seductive sounding “Bulletproof” pop!

Stylish and almost dandy melodies drip out off this new Utrecht track “Lately”, making it our favourite posing-at-the-club-track of the moment. But drama is never far away when you listen to Rhett Rowan and her fruity titled song “Mariah Carey Tattoo.” A big dose of Lana-x Del Rey served with an epic swirl!

The most happy track to take us out of 2016 must be the Californian/South African Anima! with the sunshine-power-ballad “Moving Mountains.” Or maybe it is Public‘s new single “4Her”?

And to end it all with at kaleidoscope of rave-like beats, you better take a deep listen to Sailor & I‘s majestic new track “Black Swan”.

“Shadows” was inspired by the video of Derek’s grandmother telling him “don’t crash and burn” in 1992. The video blends utopian synths and soul-searching lyrics that question letting go of memories to better enjoy the present.

The track is part of the group’s debut EP, titled “Midnight Jungle” which will be out on February 3, 2017. The idea of the song was initially produced for a commercial by the group’s vocalist/keyboardist who fell in love with what he had done and shelved it. Now, though, it has been fleshed out as a record on their upcoming EP release. The duo will be making a stop at El Cid on Friday, December 2nd alongside Zebulon Krol and Tolliver.
