Experimental music is daring, and this bold sister-act is no exception. Their music challenges your expectations of structure and tone without devolving into alienatingly shapeless noise like so many of their contemporaries. Instead, the unconventional nature of the songs draws you further in to Zambri’s world. Deftly blending vocal manipulation and masterful keyboarding, the duo creates a soundscape that is equal parts haunting and uplifting. Their ambitious live shows translate their sound perfectly, with an array of computers handling their effects in real-time as they cavort in front of psychedelic video displays. Everything about their work is imaginative and though-provoking, and you’re left feeling the band’s presence long after the music stops playing.

Not easily classifiable, Zun Zun Egui has exploded out of England with its own subgenre: “free-range rock music.” The quartet draws upon multiple styles—often within the course of the same song—and a seemingly bottomless pit of energy to produce the type of dizzying songs found on its recently-released full-length, Katang.

Moon Duo is a sonic mind meld between Sanae Yamada and Wooden Shjips’ Ripley Johnson. In its short existence, the twosome has created some of the best primitive psych-fuzz this side of Spacemen 3. Just as apt to create a Krautrock-esque stomper as a stoner-rific droner, the tag team is busy churning out tunes and taking its show on the road.

Enigmatic, mysterious, indie haze upstarts Bobby are a difficult band to pin down. Part concept, part collective, this wrinkly newborn to the Partisan Records family is a stratospheric blaze of deceptive ambient rock and quiet vitality that will challenge and soothe and eventually, I promise, you will spin this over and over again.

A classic sound with Victorian-inspired lyrics and an undeniably modern sensibility, The Amarylas are a band out of time. With lilting vocals and gritty instrumentation, these glam troubadours spawn forth tunes sometimes uplifting, sometimes trippy but always, always fascinating. Perhaps the most compelling feature of The Amarylas is that they manage the rare feat of being quirky without having to be all precious or pretentious about it. They’re complicated enough to be listened to through full-can headphones in a black lit dorm room and vibrant enough to be enjoyed through crackling speakers in a tightly packed London club. Regardless how you experience them, The Amarylas won’t disappoint.

Lush, layered loops of textural sounds are hypnotically woven with folk-pop vocals, creating a gentle sonic landscape of synthesizers and spaced out melodies that you’ll want to explore while taking a leisurely drive down the coast or lazily lolling in a hammock.

What is more fascinating than a long-haired, bearded white dude with a penchant for 70s-infused three-piece suits, and who records soulful, panty-dropping funked-out summertime jams under the Mandarin Chinese moniker of Bing Ji Ling (it means ”ice cream” in case you were wondering)? Probably nothing you’ve heard all week long! If your mind hasn’t already been blown, your curiosity should compel you to bump some Bing Ji Ling up in your earholes RIGHT NOW.

Amanda Warner, a.ka. MNDR sings songs that are so catchy, you’ ll never know you’ re listening to the byproduct of a woman so obsessed with the mechanics of experimental club music, that she has been known to attribute human characteristics her sizable collection of synthesizers. It’ s deep stuff coming from a singer whose brand of emotive electro allows listeners to forego any heavy mental lifting as you find yourself dancing to the easy rhythm of her sweet and squeaky voice bouncing off producer, Peter Wade’s tech-infused beats.
