I’ll admit, I’m phoning this one in a little bit.  I just came out of the sun after a couple beers to get a handle on this overflowing inbox.  These are the songs that rose to the top.  Check out what’s #trending this week on the blogs, featuring Darwin Deez, Icona Pop and Nvdes.

Swedish synth-pop duo Icona Pop recently released a song called “First Time”, which not only rocks, but was the first song they ever wrote since forming in 2012.  The song will appear on the new Emergency EP, out now on Big Beat Records.

Darwin Deez is having some great luck with his second listen from his fall release of Double Down, having Beats 1 DJ Zane Lowe declare “Time Machine” his “World Record”.

Finally, I got a note recently from LA band Nvdes, who’s “chill indie dance music” is a perfect fit for this site.  Check out “Unforgettable”.
