New Music Friday On A Thursday Because Of A Holiday - The Top Modern Wave Songs For The Week!

 Written By: Ken Hulsy

Hey everyone! Since tomorrow is the 4th of July, I decided to move my new music feature up a day so I can share some historical and patriotic content in honor of our independence. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been focusing on one specific group for these features, but honestly, there’s just so much incredible music out there that I realized I need to widen my scope. So, tonight, I'm excited to present a top five list of songs based on the most listens from last.fm. I had to lean on that external source for this list because, if I had done it myself, it might have been a bit overwhelming. 

Let’s start with my top pick from the playlist, which I think of as a modern take on Saint Etienne's 1994 gem, "Like A Motorway." While it might not be brand new, it's definitely a song that will completely blow your mind!

How "The Flow" reflects MTTM’s unique style and sound

There are so many bands out there trying to revive the iconic New Wave sounds of the 1980s and give them a fresh spin for today’s listeners. One group that’s made quite an entrance recently is the German trio MTTM, who just burst onto the scene last year. Many of these bands love to say, “If you’re a fan of Depeche Mode, The Cure, and New Order, then you’ll love us.” And in MTTM's case, that statement definitely holds true! 

Why Blister is a must-listen for fans of indie pop | Yumi Zouma

I’ve been meaning to share my thoughts on Yumi Zouma's latest single, “Blister,” but life got in the way! I’ve been a huge fan of theirs ever since I stumbled upon their album *Truth or Consequences* five years ago. Their song “Truer Than Ever” has been a staple on my Spotify hot list ever since—I just can't get enough of it!
