CFCF: "Big Love (Mathemagic remix)"
The Montreal DJ's cover of the Fleetwood Mac classic gets an underwater makeover courtesy of the Canadians in Mathemagic.
Phosphorescent: "It's Hard to Be Humble (When You're From Alabama)"
It's Muscle Shoals by way of Memphis on this retro soul track by underrated country-folk singer Matthew Houck, who records as the one-man band Phosphorescent.
