The Knocks – “Classic” featuring Powers

If there’s one thing you should come to expect once summer hits, it’s that The Knock are sure to put another summer anthem. Neon Gold had been teasing about this track for a while now, and it was definitely worth the wait. The Knocks teamed up with LA’s own Powers (Crista Ru) to smash together this feel-good track.

“Classic” is out digitally August 12th on Big Beat / Neon Gold.

The Knocks – “Modern Hearts” ft. St. Lucia

The Knocks St. Lucia Modern Hearts

The Knocks and St. Lucia together have to make for one of the best records of the year, undoubtedly. St. Lucia have been delivering on all the hype from 2012, but they this connection with The Knocks is probably one of the finest gems from the band.

Easily, The Knocks make any song a pleasure to listen to. They stick to what they do best and it shows song in and song out.

It’s that time of year again. No, not the holiday spirit, but the blogosphere spirit where everyone turns in their top albums of the year list. We’ve never been one to make lists. Hell, we’re not really too deep into the whole “album” spirit. With that in mind, we’ve created a list of some of our top singles of this year. There are obviously plenty others that we love, but most of them are here because we posted about them on the site. Of course we love the Adeles, Florence and The Machines, and Radioheads of the 2011 music year. It’d be crazy not to. Check out some of our favorite tracks of 2011:

M83 – “Midnight City”

Gotye – “Somebody That I Used To Know”

Penguin Prison – “Don’t Fuck With My Money”

Monarchy – “Maybe I’m Crazy”

Keep going, there’s more:

I was just about to call this a lazy day for music. It is Missy Elliot’s birthday and all, but the Summer time isn’t meant for hip-hop. Actually, I’m lying. Mick Boogie and DJ Jazzy Jeff are dropping their second Summertime mixtape tomorrow and I’m stoked. I don’t know where I’m going with this post.

Anyways, The Knocks debut this song a week ago and it’s the internet rounds as one of the smoothest Summer joints. Check it out:
