Hello again.

If you’re new here, this weekly blog post shares a few recommendations from QuirkStar music fanatics.

But enough waffling. Let the music play:

Burial – Loner
Shared by Jason Warner 

There’s really nothing to say that’ll do Burial’s latest EP justice. It’s just that good. Really, words don’t even begin to describe the dubstep/house/ambient masterpiece. Don’t believe us? Give it a listen below. You’re welcome.

Antibalas - Beaten Metal
Shared by Katharina Scholtz

And now for something completely different. Antibalas is a Brooklyn-based afrobeat band that spit out some of the grooviest tunes this side of the galaxy. Phenomenal horn work and beats that make you want to DANCE.

Evian Christ – MYD
Shared by Ben Brouckaert

The previously anonymous British producer’s free music has already caused a stir. Listen to this track off his latest gratis release, Kings and Them. Expect moody, textured, ambient night-time music with a sick hip hop vocal sample. Download the whole album here.

Alcest – Autre Temps
Shared by David Schild

Going on a night drive this weekend? Well, we’ve got the perfect track. Introspective French shoegaze metal. See, who says we don’t introduce you to new things?

Two Door Cinema Club in South Africa

If you haven’t already heard, Irish indie band Two Door Cinema Club are set to play Joburg and Cape Town on 2nd and 3rd March 2012 respectively. Hoping to buy tickets? Well, you can’t. Tickets can only be won on Sponsors 5 Gum SA Facebook page, much the same as when they brought French house DJ Étienne de Crécy to sunny Cape Town. Try your luck by clicking this link.

That’s it from us. What are you listening to?
