[Listen] Azealia Banks Covers The Strokes' "Barely Legal"

Azealia Banks shows her love for The Strokes' 2001 debut Is This It with a lush cover of "Barely Legal". Premiering a few days ago on New Zealand radio station George FM, the cover features production from Lindbergh Palace, who replaces the traditional guitars and drums with pulsating basslines and spacey synthesizers. Banks' vocals are the clear highlight though, with the Harlem rapper charismatically testing her talents with Julian Casablancas' lyrics. Stream the cover below.

[Listen] Stream 15 Seconds of New Daft Punk Material

Kevin Hart fans aside, last night's episode of Saturday Night Live wasn't exactly worth watching. During the commercial break, however, there was a curiousity-inducing 15-second clip that will surely have Daft Punk fans wetting their pants with excitement. While brief, the short video features the French duo's new logo, soundtracked by what we can assume is new material. Excited? Let's hope we'll hear more from the famed pair soon. Check it out below.

And, for those who would prefer listening to that 15 seconds over and over again for 10 minutes, you're in luck.

[Watch] Kendrick Lamar Brings "Poetic Justice" to David Letterman

Kendrick Lamar follows his fantastic Saturday Night Live appearance with a performance on the Late Show with David Letterman. Once again bringing the good kid, m.A.A.d. city cut "Poetic Justice" to the late-night stage, Lamar dished out his lyrics and flow with ease. The Compton rapper seems more and more comfortable with every performance. Catch the replay above.

[Watch] Tyler, The Creator Debuts New Song "Treehome95" on Fallon

Almost exactly two years ago, Odd Future made their television debut on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. This was back when OFWGKTA was blowing up, and it was one of the most memorable late-night performances in recent memory. Last night, Tyler, The Creator paid Jimmy a long overdue visit to promote his new album Wolf.

During his visit, Tyler debuted a brand new track titled "Treehome95", which saw him skillfully navigating a grand piano as Coco Maja Hastrup Karshøj of the Danish duo Quadron delivered some stunning vocals. This led quickly into Tyler's already released single "Domo 23", with Domo Genesis joining him on stage for an awesome, energetic performance. Apparently Tyler didn't think so. Check it out below.

[Listen] AlunaGeorge - "Attracting Flies"

Since the release of "Your Drums, Your Love" and more recently featuring on the huge Disclosure track "White Noise" AlunaGeorge have been getting all sorts of attention, and rightly so. Today comes a brand new single titled "Attracting Flies" set for release on the 10th of March via Island Records. As well as that *drum roll* they've announced their debut album titled Body Music and it's set for release on July 1st. Hot dang I'm excited to hear that. For now though, the new track can be streamed below again and again and it should keep your senses all tingly long enough until we get some more previews of the full length release.

[Listen] Fossil Collective - "Under My Arrest"

I've talked about Fossil Collective a few times over the past year. Mostly for their beautiful music and stunning visual accompaniments which you can take a look at over here. Today though I come bearing even better news; They're set to release their debut album in just over a month on April the 8th and it's titled Tell Where I Lie. Along with that they've previewed a wonderful album cut titled "Under My Arrest". I am very much looking forward to wrapping my ears around a long player from these guys if this is what they're sounding like. Wonderful stuff.

[Listen] Stream Major Lazer's New Single, "Watch Out For This (Bumaye)"

Major Lazer are doing their best to please fans after recently delaying Free the Universe, first offering up one of three free mixtapes. Now, the Diplo-led collective has offered up "Watch Out For This (Bumaye)", the next single from their upcoming sophomore effort, which pushes forward with sweaty jungle influences that draw you deep into its alluring exotic rhythms. It's sexy, it's intoxicating, and it has me very excited to hear the full album.
