Midnight World Pop Scout

Another installment of our not always reliable weekend feature of new music of note.  These aren't reviews -- just alerts to music you may find interesting.

We start in out in London with a house collaboration between Shift K3y (Lewis Jankel) and Born Dirty for Dim Mak Records.  The thumping rhythms of "Misbehave" should get your night off to a good start.  The single is available as of June 29.

Next is Melbourne, Australia electro-pop duo Alta.  Consisting of Hannah Lesser and Julius Dowson, they releases a five-track EP Awake For Days last Friday.  We think it is very interesting.
