Major Lazer, DJ Snake, and MØ have put it out a fantastic music video to accompany their single “Lean On.” Shot on location in Mumbai, India, the video is inspired by the people, culture, and warmth experienced by the artists during their time in city, and is a fantastic visual accompaniment to track's power-pop dancehall sound.

 writes, "Ever since I heard 'Get Free' for the first time a few years back I've dreamt about collaborating with Major Lazer so I'm super stoked about 'Lean On' dropping now. The song is about the fear of outgrowing someone you love. But also how the most important thing in life is to have someone to lean on when you face difficulties and struggle with all the shit that life throws at you."

The band performed a collection of modern cinematic songs with shimmering soulful melodies backlit by classic 808 and 909 beats.

The Controversy bounced through an infectious set loaded with catchy melodies, sexy beats, and big booming choruses. Highlights included their brilliant performances of their single, “QUEEN OF CHINATOWN”.

Up next was husband and wife duo Barnyard Stompers. They play the roughest and rawest Country music allowed by law and then some. Highlights from their set were "EVERBODY KNOWS", "CORN LIQUOR" and "TRUCK DRIVIN' SON OF A BITCH"!

Late Night Friends 

Late Night Friends is an indie/alt rock band from Los Angeles, CA. Jonathan Baron and Barrett Shuler started awkwardly constructing songs sometime around Christmas 2013. At first, Shuler didn't appreciate Baron's affinity for 60's psychedelia and 70's punk. Baron, in retaliation, smugly dismissed Shuler's enthusiasm for obscure instrumental bands and Jeff Tweedy. The two buried the hatchet over a shared love for several 90's bands and have cohabitated politely since.

Mutual friend and drummer Keith Roenke always joked that they should start a band because "the marriage of their styles would either work really well or not at all." LNF was shaped up once Barrett recruited his former [Coral Springs, FL] Little League teammate Alex Gallner to play bass.

Late Night Friends' Debut LP, What I Think I'm Not, will be released on June 30th, 2015 via Limited Fanfare Records. Recorded by Steve Kille (of Dead Meadow), Mixed by Mike Pappas and Mastered by Dan Coutant (The Gaslight Anthem, Jawbox, Denney and The Jets).

Pretty young things aspire to embrace their basest desires by stealing cars, flaunting their goodies, and participating in a variety of girl-on-girl promiscuity, all with the mafiosal grace of the most elegant Real Housewive of New Jersey.

If this Video Pick's cover image and the above synopsis aren't enough indication, let me be clear: Spada & Elen Levon's international dance-pop smash hit "Cool Enough" is extremely sexy... almost too sexy... until you realize that's the point.

Despite coming across as a commercial for Europe's most prestigious barely legal sex factory (a tall order indeed), nestled deeply in the overt barrage of full-on sexuality that seemingly defines this video is an unexpected message: you'll never, ever, be cool enough, and the more earnestly you attempt to personify coolness incarnate, the more your soul is doomed to the deep abyss of the endless cycle of external validation.

But for real though - did you see that part where they licked that ice cream cone at the same time?!?!?

So hot bro.

So cool.

 This melodious song is truly music to our ears. It's chill, gentle, mellow and it's something to relax to. The video is enchanting; visually pleasing. We can't wait to hear more from Buscabella— this music is very uplifting. 

Buscabulla (Spanish slang for troublemaker) is the music project of Puerto Rican designer and Brooklyn resident, Raquel Berrios and Luis Alfredo Del Valle. Heavily influenced by vintage Latin music like salsa gorda, Cuban psych and '80s Argentinian rock, the project combines both electronic and live instrumentation. Their diverse influences make up a hybrid that combines a mellow Caribbean sensibility with subversive wit.
