Sufjan Stevens has released a mixtape of outtakes, remixes and demos from Carrie and Lowell, proving that even an album of his unfinished tracks is better than most artists major efforts.

Finally, August Rosembaum brings us a mix of Jamie Woon and Rhye that has us swooning at our desks. “Calling Out” is a swirling pattern of harmonies and minimalist beats that reminds one of a church choir.
New artist forecast: The Colorado based Ashley Koett has released her newest track “Call Me” that mixes the vocal stylings of Joss Stone with an 8-bit wurlitzer sound in the vein of Headphones. It’s an ear worm that’ll have you singing “baby baby” all day.
