Chairlift, the Brooklyn based electronica duo, are set to take over dance floors in 2016, as evident in this week's release, "Moth to the Flame." You can listen to it on Apple Music right now.
We think Yuck is going to reclaim the throne of garage rock bands in 2016. If you don't trust us on this one, listen to the UK outfit's newest song, "Hearts in Motion," off of the 2016 record Stranger Things, right here:
