VS. Racing

Vs. Racing brings arcade racing to the iOS. Developed by Maciek Drejak Labs, it’s got some real smooth graphics, and the gameplay is easy to pick up. It’s a fun racer that you can play over and over.

Siblings: My Brother

What an apt move for a band of ‘Siblings’ to make an EP about ‘brothers’? Well, excuse the pun, but seriously, the newcomer British quartet makes blood relations sound cool in last year’s My Brother EP.

Even if you don’t know much about the intricacies of baseball, you’ll be able to pick this up quickly.

Boeboe: El Dorado

Boeboe‘s El Dorado is an EP that is as bouncy and nerve jangling as a speeding in a stolen Porsche. Whether that’s your idea of fun or not, no one could ever resist dancing to this EP. Feel Me is dominated with beats that would make you succumb into night-lights of partying and adventure.
