Deer Du Bois Playlist #124

Every Wednesday on HighClouds, from now until death do us part, we publish the picky playlists of our Brussels’ friend and collaborator Deer Du Bois. He has been demonstrating a real talent in highlighting emerging and talented acts and imposes himself as a real talent-spotter. Every week, his playlist is a sharp and buzzing selection of new discoveries in indie and pop music. And lucky you: we are now your fresh and fun place to weekly seat and savor his delightful “indie.tronic.dream.pop.chill.wave” cocktail. So, do you mind a cup?

This week, Deer Du Bois offers us another refreshing indie pop playlist! Let’s get botanical. Feel and see new music sprout from the fertile summer soil.

Soft, colorful new artists bloom in bright pink and electric blue besides nocturnal glowing neon nightshades. We’ve been breeding them happy and intense, but also piercing and melodramatic.

Discover the Finish flora with LKA and her dazzling pop on “Wildfire”.

With a double entry on our playlist this week, we can’t hide our musical obsession with Isaac Sakima. We meet him here as producer of Samson on “Disguise” and with his side-project SWIMS singing his quivering new single “Twice”.

Our perfect crush this week comes from the freshly emerging L.A. singer Bridesmen with his slick and soulful song “Empty”.
