The Foreign Films - The Foreign Films EP
Hamilton, ON-based songwriter Bill Majoros has been off the grid since his old band, Flux A.D., broke-up back in 2002. Now, Majoros is back with a new project called the Foreign Films, and has released a new self-titled EP that is available for free on Bandcamp.

Azari & III - "Into the Night"
Azari & III, the Toronto-based house duo, released their new single Into the Light yesterday and, thanks to the fine folks at Pitchfork, you can download the title track off the release, as well as a remix done by NYC-via-Chile producer Nicolas Jaar. [MP3] [REMIX]

blogTO Indie Exclusive: Max Wray - "Lost In Your Eyes"
This weeks Indie Exclusive is Hamilton, ON's Max Wray, who is, in my opinion, destined for success. He is the epitome of the classic singer-songwriter, belting out heartfelt lyrics and emotional longing through his guitar, all while maintaining an undeniable charm and endearing awkwardness. Let's put it this way, if Jason Mraz and John Mayer had a love child it'd be Max. After the release of the Max Wray Live EP this past summer, Wray has been taking those steps towards success, slowly building his name with a whirlwind of shows and press. Now, he offers up his track "Lost In Your Eyes" to all you faithful blogTO readers. [MP3]
