Watch: Beni - Someone Just Like You
Since releasing his all-conquering debut record - 'House of Beni' in 2011, Australia's very-own Beni has refused to look back.
The video for Beni's second single 'Someone Just Like You' is Jared Eberhardt's kaleidoscopic vision. Shot between a warehouse space in downtown LA and the open deserts of Death Valley and Joshua Tree, the result is an energetic, pulsating dance video that pulls no punches.
'House of Beni' is available internationally through iTunes, Mod Shop & JB HiFi.
Modcast #109: Lo-Fi-Fnk
Lo-Fi-Fnk are Swedish electro-poppers Leonard Drougge and August Hellsing. They've been making music since 2001 and, as of now, this includes the 109th iteration of the Modcast.
Last year they released their second album, 'The Last Summer' and have in this mix included an extra-special bonus with the premier of the Krusha remix of their upcoming single 'Kissing Taste'. Keep your ears open for this one.
Watch: The Rapture - In the Grace of your Love
The Rapture have released an awesome new video for next single "In the Grace of Your Love" from 2011's album of the same name.
Directed by Melissa Jones and featuring some darn good dancing from a certain band member. Its simple but oh so pretty. Check it out on Dreamtheend or on vimeo.
The Rapture will be out touring with Future Music Festival through March, as well side shows in Sydney and Melbourne with label-mates Azari & III.

Watch: F3 - Lonely Land (Club Mod #002)
F3 are three brothers from Tel Aviv, who sent their debut single 'Lonely Land' in a bottle from Israel, and it somehow found its way to us. 'Lonely Land' is a filtering, chugging swing for the lovers.
Remixes come from Barcelona star on the up John Talabot, whose vigorous "Midnight Club Revision" goes to a darker discoteca; Seahawks, who carve a slow, entrancing path through the cosmos; and Coyote, who live in a lush, sensuous paradise of rolling piano and slinky guitar.
'Lonely Land' is available February 27.

Introducing Kindness
Kindness is the recorded work of Adam Bainbridge and bears the fingerprints of no specific scene, no particular country, no certain era. It's pop music but it's slippery and enigmatic, sounds slick yet underground.
Touted by NME in 2010 as the next big thing, his sound has recognisable reference points. From the leftfield disco of Walter Gibbons, the cosmopolitan rhythms of Grace Jones and Tom Tom Club, to the frictionless 80s R&B of Alexander O'Neal, all swirled around with the blurry Polaroid pop of Ariel Pink.
His forthcoming debut album, "World, You Need a Change of Mind" was co-produced, recorded and mixed with the Grammy Award winning Phillipe Zdar (Cassius / Cut Copy / Phoenix), at Zdar's studio in Paris and is set for release through Modular on March 23.
