After spending nearly 17 years on some dusty shelf, Soma Records will be releasing one of Daft Punk's earliest known recordings. The track, "Drive", was originally sent to Soma as a demo, along with fellow track "Rollin' and Scratchin". The label wanted a version of "Da Funk" so the group sent them a new tape with "Rollin'" and "Da Funk" and the Drive tape was tossed by the wayside, meant for later release. Flash forward nearly two decades. As part of the label's 20th anniversary celebration, Soma will be releasing a boxset which commemorates their success and longevity in the biz. And what better way to celebrate than to include retrospective and unreleased tracks from some of its heaviest hitters. This should come as great news to fans of the band, especially their earlier works. Daft Punk has long been known for their creative string of electro-meets funk-pop tunes. The song will be released on disc one (of three) for the aptly titled Soma Records: 20 Years, to be released September 19th.

In the same vain as Kanye West, our very own adorable divas, Love Scenes have been slowly releasing new material since the beginning of the summer. The new song 'Insomnia' starts off slow and precedes cautiously until the 1:20 mark when things lift off with additional lush layers of snyth and drums that crescendos with a neon electric guitar solo at the end.  It really is a dream pop song that takes you outer space

My favorite band of all time (tied - with seven other bands) has released two new tracks and announced a show in Toronto! Only 1 hr and 52 minutes from Buffalo, NY! Arcade Fire has been under the radar for two years while they work on their new album (rumored double disc!).  Yesterday two tracks were leaked on a radio station in England and today at NPR All Songs Considered at noon, they will be playing both tracks and there will be an interview with the band.

The band has only announced two solo shows for this entire summer and one of them is in Toronto on August 14th.  Tickets go on sale tomorrow at noon or you can get presale at Arcade Fire's Website.  Listen to one of the new tracks titled The Suburbs....
