Sensual Harrasment
Today's new band are Sensual Harrasment.
Sounding like an East Coast !!!, Sensual Harrasment are more Daft Punk than Dance-Punk, but this Brooklyn "Reptilian Humanoid Alliance" have hit on something pretty darn good.
Touching points may also include the Presets and their Australian cousins Midnight Juggernaughts, in the way its all synth melodies and softly spoken vocals. There's a hint of Miami Vice nostalgia, but it doesn't quite overpower just yet, at least on the tracks availiable: "Soldier" and "Daddy Long Legs".
Enjoy the latter track below.

New Atlas Sound Album
Well, having finished another round with the normal band, Cox is back to his solo moniker with new album Logos, and he's brought some friends along for the ride. Most notably, Animal Collective's Panda Bear on the now widely availiable track "Walkabout", availiable below.
To say I'm slow on this sort of thing would not be inaccurate. The album was accidentally leaked (unmixed and incomplete) by Cox himself sometime between his debut and the Microcastle, and was practically disowned. Judging by the tracks that are now availiable, I for one and extremely glad that he didn't.
MP3: Atlas Sound - Walkabout (Feat. Panda Bear) *
Logos will be availiable on October 10th via Kranky in the US, and sometime shortly afterwards in the UK.

Run Toto Run remixed by Magic Arm
Yes yes, I've given Run Toto Run quite a bit of blogspace recently, but this is all entirely justified, I promise. They've let slip to the blogosphere a sneak preview of new single Catch My Breath (due out mid-September) with a remix by fellow folktronica fella (geddit) and Manchester co-habitant Magic Arm.
While you should expect a feature on their debut album at some point in the future, for now you should definately check out what he's done to Run Toto Run; in their own words, he's made them "sound like Dizzee Rascal".
Have a listen:
