[Watch] Twin Shadow - "Run My Heart" (Yours Truly Session)
Twin Shadow recently visited Yours Truly to put in a rendition of his track "Run My Heart" which features on the recently released LP Confess. The session sees George Lewis Jr. in a garden performing by himself with just a guitar for company.
Confess which is out now via 4AD.
[Watch] Beach House - "Wild" x "Wishes" Live on Fallon
So we've already enjoyed The xx making their first TV performance in a while earlier in the shape of "Angels". Now you can enjoy what happened elsewhere on the late night circuit. On Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to be more precise. Beach House performed not one but two tracks from their recent album, Bloom. Up at the top of the page you can watch "Wild" while after the jump you can enjoy "Wishes".

[Watch] The xx - "Angels" Live on Conan
Last night The xx were the musical guest on Conan to perform their first piece of new music for quite some time, "Angels". The three piece put in a spine tingling performance of the first single from their forthcoming album, Coexist, which is set for release on September the 10th. Check out the performance at the top of the page and start your Wednesday right.
[Watch] Hot Chip - "How Do You Do?" (Official Video)
Last week we saw Hot Chip perform on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon with a little help from The Roots. Fast forward a week and we're watching their throwback visual for their new single, "How Do You Do?", which features on their newly released album, In Our Heads. By this point we kind of expect a wacky looking visual when they're released and this is no different. The Rollo Jackson directed video has a 90's feel throughout and features some (spoiler!) seamless green screen work. Kind of makes me want to go to the beach too. Watch it above.
[Listen] MNDR - "Feed Me Diamonds"
Earlier today MNDR premiered the title track from her upcoming debut album, Feed Me Diamonds, which is slated for an August 14th release courtesy of Ultra Music. The song follows up her uptempo lead single, "Faster Horses" and this time around we have a more ballad-esque tune featuring slowed down beats that are carried by singer Marina Abramovic's vocals. It's a little bit darker than what I was expecting, but that hopefully shows signs of great things to come for this album.
[Listen] Ben Gibbard - "Ichiro's Theme"
For any baseball fans out there, more specifically Seattle Mariners fans, the big news this past day has been the trade of fan favorite Ichiro Suzuki, who is now a member of the New York Yankees' roster. Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard, who recently announced his debut solo LP, is a well-known fan of the Mariners, and today released a tribute track for the departed right fielder titled "Ichiro's Theme". Stream it below, and here's what Gibbard said about the song and the trade on his Twitter:
Totally okay with this trade. Thanks for your best years, Ichiro. We will always look back on them fondly. #Mariners #Ichiro I wrote this song a few years ago. Today seems like the best day to share it with you. Thank you so much, Ichiro.”

[Listen] Stream Two Flying Lotus Instrumentals
This morning, Music for the Masses pointed us to Flying Lotus' SoundCloud page, where the genre-bending producer dropped a brand new off-kilter instrumental titled "lamentedmix3 Instrumental". While the song isn't part of FlyLo's forthcoming LP Until The Quiet Comes, it's still a great listen.
Flying Lotus also uploaded another track to his SoundCloud, the instrumentals for the song "Between Friends", his Adult Swim Singles Program collaborative cut with Earl Sweatshirt and Captain Murphy. The instrumental, according to the title, is Thundercat's version of the track. Stream both songs below.
