Alt-J - Every Other Freckle

We've already heard two songs from Alt-J's new album This Is All Yours and now they've shared a third. New track 'Every Other Freckle' sees the former Mercury prize winners once again take on the modern indie rock template and transform it into something totally weird and unique, in a way only Alt-J seem to know how. Indeed despite the loss of founding member, Gwil Salisbury, at the beginning of this year, at this rate Alt-J album number two might just prove to be even more ground breaking than album number one.

Alt-J - Story 4: Sleeplessly Embracing (Clipping. Remix)

If you told me you wanted to sample the new alt-J single and use it as the foundation for a Hip-Hop record I have to admit I'd be pretty skeptical. However, that's exactly what burgeoning rap group Clipping. have done and the result is quite frankly aweseome. Check out the genre flipping track below and hear experimental production at it's very best.

Alt-J - Left Hand Free

Alt-J continue to build on their reputation as a band that refuse to be pigeon-holed with 'Left Hand Free' the second track to be unveiled from their highly anticipated second album. While 'Hunger Of The Pine' was a typically alternative piece of indie-electronic ethereal Alt-J pop, 'Left Hand Free' captures a more traditional classic rock sound, albeit with a new-age twist. Love them or hate them, Alt-J remain one of the most forward thinking bands in the business.

Alt-J - Hunger of The Pine

After what seems like an age away former Mercury prize winners Alt-J return with their first piece of new music since the release of their critically acclaimed debut album An Awesome Wave. The track, entitled 'Hunger Of The Pine', is a slow-building experimental number that blends indie rock with new age electronic sounds in a way that only Alt-J can. More suprising still it samples vocals from Miley Cyrus, the lyric 'I'm a female rebel' lifted from the singer's song '4x4'. Suprises aside, Alt-J are back and sounding better than ever.

Ellie Goulding - Tessellate (Alt-J cover)

Produced by Chiddy Bang's very own Xaphoon Jones, here is Ellie Goulding's fantastic cover of Alt-J's infectious hit single 'Tessellate'. This is probably one song that maybe shouldn't be touched, but Ellie has done it justice, and I really enjoyed her take on a fantastic piece of music.
