Words cannot explain just how obsessed we are with Okay Kaya. She won us over with her official debut "Damn, Gravity", but today we get a dose of what's going to launch her into being one of the most talked about artists of 2015. Her music video for "Clenched Teeth" is a simplistic masterpiece where we find Okay Kaya wandering the streets of Tokyo. It's this minimalistic approach that allows for Okay Kaya to wrap her arms around you with every emotion that runs through her music. This video absolutely keeps you mesmerized as you sit on the edge of your seat enthralled by the city around, while also crafting a perfected strumming lullaby. Lay back and be lulled into the night with this beauty.

Wake My Body
It's been a year since Glastonbury band Dive In made their massive debut landing themselves among our Artists to Watch list for 2015. Today, we wait no more with the release of their latest single "Eighteen" off of their debut EP out May 25 via Vagrant. Dive In's sound pulls in on the new-age synth play of Magic Man from the very beginning, while throwing classic hook after hook at you that reminds us of Racing Glaciers. It's that raging chorus that gets your blood rushing and ready for whatever comes next. The youthfulness mixing with the maturity in the sound Dive In delivers which is going to set them leaps and bounds ahead of any group this year. Remember those carefree nights with this one below.
